Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center

Welcome

RMDRC is home to an awe-inspiring display of
dinosaurs, prehistoric marine reptiles, pterosaurs
and fish of North America's late Cretaceous.

Visitors can enjoy a wide collection of fossilized animals, see a working fossil laboratory and enjoy life-restoration as well as skeletons of these fascinating animals. The best part, due to our field work, our exhibits change periodically.

For the kids, Woody's Paleo Playground includes
a dig site, activities like "create a dinosaur", dinosaur "rubbings" and educational videos non-stop.

And don't forget our gift shop for all your dinosaur
needs. For those who can't make it, we have it
available online.

There's always something new to see,
so come, explore and enjoy our site!
