I was out at a few sites where I work called Triceratops Trail, Dinosaur Ridge and the I-70 Road Cut taking some photos of trampled dinosaur trackways for our exhibits and had a pretty good day. Despite the tornadoes that ravaged north-eastern Colorado yesterday, the foothills were breezy and about 65-70 degrees with just a bit of rain.
Here's some pics that I took yesterday. Those geo and paleo fans may find them interesting. Pics of some ornithopod trackways from the South Platte Formation (Dinosaur Ridge), a small wild lizard (non-dinosaurian), a lovely look at the green/gray/maroon siltstones of the Morrison Formation, neat vertical banding in mudstones from (I believe) the Lytle Formation, and a trampled track area from the Laramie Formation (probably Triceratops and a species of hadrosaur, most likely Edmontosaurus as the formation is aged to 68 MY).
