Episode 30: Dinosaur National Monument: Where the Bones Are Still in the Rock (A Family Guide)
from Ready Set Depart · host Ashley Linton
In this episode of Ready Set Depart, we’re talking all about Dinosaur National Monument and why it’s such a great trip for families with kids. I’m sharing how to get there, where to stay, and what I’d actually focus on if you’re visiting with children, starting with the can’t-miss Quarry Exhibit Hall where dinosaur bones are still visible right in the rock. We also cover easy hikes, scenic drives, petroglyphs, and a few fun stops in Vernal before you even enter the Monument. Trooper joins me to share what stood out to him most, including touching real dinosaur bones and trying some memorable geocaching. If your family loves dinosaurs but you want an adventure that’s exciting without being overwhelming, this episode is for you.Support the showFollow us on:Instagram | Facebook | Pinterest
