Dinosaur National Monument

I’ve been in coastal Oregon long enough to get very accustomed to mild temperatures, lots of rain and green everywhere.  But during the late spring I made a short trip to Dinosaur National Monument in eastern Utah.  It was comparatively warm and dry, even though apparently the state had pretty substantial levels of precipitation (snow).  Here are some pictures:

Petroglyphs

Lizards were common

A little hard to make out, but there are dinosaur vertebrae across the center of the picture.
