Our Story

This is the location that Dr. Earl Douglass (paleontologist) came to in 1909 while doing research on behalf of the Carnegie Museum of Pittsburgh. It was then when Douglass found the most complete Apatosaurus fossil on record and began excavating. He shipped over 700,000 tons of fossils back to his employer, the Carnegie Museum of Pittsburgh. This later became one of the most significant discoveries of Jurassic era fossils in North America, and still is to this day.
