Dinosaur Ridge leads several travel and field programs for adults (and families) throughout the year. These range from day trips to multi-day weekend excursions. Experience Dinosaur Ridge where 150 million year old dinosaur bones are encased in sandstone at eye level and visitors are encouraged to touch, feel, and experience these remnants from Late Jurassic floodplains and stream channels! 100 million year old dinosaur tracks sit atop layers of sand and mudstone, the pads of the toes and patterns of migration seen in over 300 footprints and 37 trackways. At our Visitor Center you can enjoy our Gift Shop, Trek Through Time exhibits, a simulated dinosaur dig, and even grab a bite to eat from our snack shack! There's something for everyone here at the Ridge, so let's go explore! (less) ... Read more

We are now accepting reservations for school field trips. Field trips are available Monday through Friday, October 1 - 31 Most of our trips are for preschool to second grade. For higher grades, middle school to high school, we are able to offer a trip that would be more advanced and cover topics like water, soil health, and regenerative farming principles. Most groups spend about 1 to 1 1/2 hour for the total visit. Large groups will be broken down into smaller groups for touring. We do have some tent space for groups wanting to have lunch or snack. Please let us know if you plan this. We will be open regardless of weather. We have many students scheduled to visit. It is important that groups arrive on time. If you have schedule difficulties call Bob on cell phone at 303-931-1591 so we know you are running late. This is an outside activity and students should come dressed for the day's weather. We will be walking on grass and fields which may be wet or muddy. We will conduct a 20-30 minute tour where we will see and talk about tractors and harvest equipment, animals ( calves, sheep , goats, chickens, and rabbits) and their use on the farm, and how pumpkins, squash and corn are grown. Questions are encouraged. After the tour students can form small groups with the teachers and parents. They can go through the straw bale maze, corn maze or go back to look at any of the things covered on the tour. We will give each student a bag with their pie pumpkin on the way out. The teacher can pick out one big pumpkin for the class. (less) ... Read more
