UTAH FIELD HOUSE OF NATURAL HISTORY STATE PARK MUSEUM

RAFTING ON THE GREEN RIVER IN DINOSAUR NATIONAL MONUMENT

In Vernal, Utah, locals like to brag the town was estab-lished 150,000,000 years ago.

And there are plenty of former ancient residents ly-ing around to prove it.

You can see some of them at the Utah Field House of Natural History State Park Museum. A giant Diplodo-cus stretching 90 feet from tail to tip will greet you at the door. Inside, get an engaging hands-on primer on what’s been going on for the last several million years. Learn how dinosaurs roamed the area and how to tell fossils apart from pebbles. Step into the Fossil Lab to discover how sci-entists work with dinosaur bones. And don’t miss the Di-nosaur Garden where 17 full-sized replicas of prehistoric animals loiter.

For those who truly want to get their hands dirty, plan ahead and sign up for the museum’s � ve-day fossil � eld pro-gram to dig for dinosaurs in the beautiful Uinta basin and mountains.

From there, head 13 miles north of Vernal on 191 to Red Fleet State Park where you can walk a 1.5-mile trail (made more challenging by its up-and-down terrain) to 200-million-year-old dinosaur tracks. Go early in the morning or later afternoon as the tracks are di� icult to see when the sun is directly above you. There’s great camping here, and the park rents kayaks, canoes and paddleboards to explore the Red Fleet Reservoir.

Want in on the local food scene? Head to Betty’s Cafe, 416 W. Main St., for a reasonably-priced breakfast. For din-ner, head downtown to the Vernal Brewing Co. for craft beer and a gastro pub menu. You’ll notice the beers are named after area attractions like Little Hole Lager [a boat takeout in the Green River] and Allosaurus Amber.

Stop in at the visitor center in the Utah Field House of National History State Park Museum at 496 East Main St., or go to dinoland.com.

Dinosaurs and Deserts LoopVERNAL, UTAH, TO CRAIG, COLO. 121 miles, 2 hours

Tucked in the northwestern corner of Colorado with views that rival those of the Grand Can-yon, Mo� at County is your next destination en route to Rocky Mountain National Park.

A little o� the beaten path and away from the crowds, Mo� at County encompasses the towns of Craig, Maybell, Hamilton, Massadona and Lay and is home to

two-thirds of Dinosaur National Monument.

The monument is a breathtaking collection of river canyons, fossils and petroglyphs. Inside the Quarry Exhibit Hall, visitors can see more than 1,500 dinosaur fos-sils on a cli� wall and touch fossils from 149 million years ago.

The Green River and Yampa River converge in the middle of Dino-saur National Monu-ment, and the canyons are a sight to see, espe-cially by river raft.

“It’s absolutely gor-geous,” says Tom Kleinschnitz, executive director of the Mo� at County Tourism Associ-ation. “Its views match or are better than the overlooks at some places in the Grand Canyon.”

Just east of the mon-ument is a place called Deerlodge Park where visitors can see hun-dreds of elk year-round.

“There are times in the middle of the win-ter where they’ll bunch up into a herd of 800 to 1,000,” Kleinschnitz says. “So that’s an op-portunity for people to really take incredible pictures.”

If you seek more wild-life, head east to Maybell then north to the Sand Wash Basin area where one of the largest wild

mustang herds still roam. Their biology can be traced back to horses brought over by early explorers from the Old World.

Visit the Mo� at Tourism Association at 1111 W. Victory Way in Craig or visitmo� atcounty.com. Learn more about commerical rafting companies running river trips at nps.gov/dino.

Jurassic Journey Animals from prehistoric times and today meet in Mo� at County.

ON THE ROAD

You haven’t really vacationed in Colorado until you’ve ridden a horse and rafted the Colorado River in one day.

No place makes this feat easi-er to accomplish than the authentic western town of Kremmling, 40 miles west of Grand Lake near the west entrance to Rocky Moun-tain National Park. Kremmling lies in the heart of Colorado’s ranching country, but don’t let this one-stoplight town fool you. It’s home to � ve river-rafting companies, a 10-minute drive to three reservoirs and the headquarters of Big Shooter Co� ee where you can get a great cup of joe downtown.

After � nishing your latte, head to the Rusty Spurr Ranch just three miles out of town to start your Saddle-to-Paddle adven-ture. If you really want to feel like a cow-boy, you also can do a cattle drive.

“I am a city girl, but on this cattle drive, they match your riding experience to your horse,” says Shelly McManus, executive director of the Kremmling Area Chamber of Commerce. “They teach you the skills

and when you are comfortable you start to round up cattle. The next thing you know you’re doing it.”

Once you’ve stomped around enough in your cowboy boots, leave the barn behind and head to the river. The ranch o� ers a riding/rafting package or sign up at one of Kremmling's river-rafting companies.

Or you can rent your own equipment along the banks of the river. Kremmling is where you pick up the Trough Road, a dirt road lined with some of the state’s most breathtaking and largely undiscovered sweeping canyon views. It leads to a raf-ter’s paradise located 19 miles away along the upper Colorado River, with white-water stretches rated easy to extreme. That paradise is called Rancho Del Rio, a quirky settlement along a calm section of the Colorado River. Learn more on the sidebar to the right.

Learn more at the Kremmling Cham-ber of Commerce, 203 Park Ave., or go to kremmlingchamber.com.

FROM PADDLE TO SADDLE

After you leave Rocky Mountain National Park, go on a cattle drive followed by whitewater rafting.

THE SOGGY DOLLAR

Head to the Soggy Dollar, a log-cab-in-turned-rafting headquarters for the Colorado River Center in Rancho Del Rio.

If you have experience raft-ing and kayak-ing, you can rent your boats and lifejackets here and arrange for a shuttle to pick you up at the end of the day.

Otherwise, go on a guided trip and kick back as your guide � lls you in on the area’s geologic and cul-tural history. You’ll � nd a joie de vivre energy here among the free-wheeling resident dogs, a convenience store housed in an old log-hewn cabin, a

boat rental shop, a camp-ing area and an open-air food

shack called

“KK’s BBQ Center of the Uni-verse.”

Pull up a wooden stool here after an afternoon of rafting. A meal at the cen-ter of the universe never tasted so good.

Throw a Frisbee at 9,075 feet and see how far it goes at the Fris-co Adventure Center. Just o� of I-70, the

adventure center sits in the histori-cal town of Frisco on the shores of the Dillon Reservoir.

Beyond the free Disc Golf course, the adventure center o� ers other fun activities for everyone in your car. The skate park and the bike park, complete with dirt jumps, are free and open to the public. But if you just want to relax and not worry about planning activities and dinner, consider a chuck wagon ride from the adventure center to a site nestled below the mountains for cowboy golf, cornhole, a BBQ dinner and Wild West show.

Near the Frisco Adventure Center is the Frisco Bay Marina located on the shores of the Dillon Reservoir and on the east end of Frisco’s Main Street. Sit on the sandy beach and watch the sailboats in the distance. Or rent a powerboat, kayak, ca-noe or stand-up paddleboard here. Never kayaked before? Sign up for a guided tour and lesson.

At night, settle into one of Fris-co’s three National Forest camp-grounds, two on the shores of Dil-lon Reservoir and within walking distance of the Frisco Adventure Park.

Learn more at towno� risco.com.

Hello FriscoAfter exploring Kremmling, hit Colorado's ski town highway, I-70, and discover a laid-back moun-

tain town with a ton of conveniences.

FUEL UP ORGANICALLYFrisco is a great place to stock up for the rest of your trip. If you’re looking for organic foods, you’ll

be happy to know there’s a Whole Foods Market in town. There’s also a Safeway grocery store. For Colorado-grown fruits and vegetables, stop at Uncle John’s Farm Stand at 800 Main St. It’s open

late June through October selling produce from Palisade, Colo., including peaches and tomatoes, along with free-range, hormone-free beef.

Dinosaurs and Deserts LoopFRISCO, COLO., TO GRAND JUNCTION, COLO. 174 miles, 3 hours

ON THE ROAD

A GRAND TIMEJust 30 miles from the Utah border, Grand Junction sits in the heart of Colorado’s red-rock country. It was named af-ter the Grand River, which was renamed the Upper Colorado River in 1921, and the junction of the Colorado and Gunnison rivers. How has it gone from a western backwater to the heart of Colorado’s outdoor recreation and wine country? Here’s how it has evolved into what it is today.

1.5-.17 BILLION YEARS AGO Geological features begin forming the Colorado National Monument, but the monument isn't established until 1911. Stay at the Saddlehorn campground, perched above the canyons, and stroll to the visitor center.

10 MILLION YEARS AGO Hard volcanic basalt seals the top of the Grand Mesa, the world’s largest � at-top mesa with an area of 500 square miles, laying the foundation for future outdoor fun. Today travelers can camp, bike and � sh in summer and ski Powderhorn Mountain Resort in winter.

1400- 1881 The Utes move in, following migrating herds. Three hundred years later, Spanish and Mexican soldiers, priests and explorers visit. The U.S. gains control from Mexico in 1848. In 1881 the Utes are forced on a reservation.

1880S City founder George A. Crawford plants grapes on 60 acres near Palisade. Prohibition wipes out Colorado's wine industry.

1970S TO TODAY Grapes are planted, giving rise to today's vibrant wine scene. Go to Rapid Creek Cycles in Palisade to pick up a wine/orchard map and a cruiser bike with a basket large enough to � t your purchases. Or stop at the Grand Junction Visitor Center, 740 Horizon Dr., or visitgrandjunction.com for a valley wine map and advice.

140 MILLION YEARS AGO Dinosaurs thrive, leaving behind footprints and bones. See fossils at the Dinosaur Journey Museum in Fruita or on the 1.5-mile Trail Through Time 26 miles west of Grand Junction.

200 A.D.-1300 The valley’s � rst residents, the Fremonts, pave the way for future inhabitants.

Just south of Grand Junction is Delta County, with a patchwork of historical towns o� ering incredible outdoor experiences without crowds.

trails, all with national designations, Delta County includes the towns of Cedaredge, Crawford, Delta, Hotchkiss and Pa-onia. Head to Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park and walk along the canyon edge on the North Vista Trail. From the North Rim Ranger Station to Exclamation Point, the trail is rated "moderate" and is 3 miles roundtrip. Get details at the ranger station.
