built 187 days ago
The river defines the southern end of Arches National Monument which exhibits a number of impressive arches cut into the Entrada Sandstone. It then drops into the desert Mecca of Moab, Utah. You can follow the river by car as far as the Potash Plant below Dead Horse Point. Traveling further requires permits and a boat.

Dinosaur National Monument was created by Woodrow Wilson in 1915. Why did he do that. Now, 1909 one Dr. Earl Douglass discovered eight vertebrae of an Apatosaurus right at the spot where the Dinosaur quarry building is located today. He was working for Andrew Carnegie who, being the richest man on earth at the turn of the century, had taken a fancy in establishing the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh. At that time, Dinosaur bones were the big thing, so Earls discovery was highly welcome. Hundreds of tons of fossilized bones got shipped to Pittsburgh enhancing the Dinosaur bone collection at Carnegies museum.
