Scenery on the Colorado Side of Dinosaur National Monument

We also explored the road on the Colorado side of Dinosaur National Monument, and saw some really lovely sights....altho no dinosaur bones!


I just loved the texture in the rocks in this image!  And the color is so bold when compared to the rocks on the hill/mountain behind it.


Altho there were no dinosaur bones, homesteads or petroglyphs on this side of Dinosaur National Monument, there was some really striking scenery.  The above image really conveys a sense of the vast countryside surrounding us.


This last image was looking out toward the Utah side of Dinosaur National Monument.  I couldn't help but think of those large beasts sort of dotting the land as I looked out on this.  However, I'm sure the landscape was vastly different during the time they roamed the earth.
 
Enjoy!
