Located near Black Mesa, these dinosaur tracks have been preserved in a sandstone strata next to Carrizo Creek. This dinosaur trackway was originally discovered in the 1980s and contained 47 footprints. Due to erosion, only a third of those tracks are visible today. Two tracks in particular are much deeper than the others and have a ridge. It might be that the dinosaur was walking on a mudflat area and slipped.
The dinosaur tracks are located on private property, but viewing is allowed during daylight hours. For those interested in such things, there is also a "virtual" geocache
GC27FB at this location.
