Dinosaur Tracks
Located just off SR160 about 5 miles from US89, this very accessible
site provides income to local Navajo tribe members living in nearby community
of Moenave. Indian men offer to guide you to the different tracks. (You
park your vehicle across the gravel road. While viewing the tracks, you
will be a distance away from the parking area - When we visited, we took
the guide.) At the conclusion of the tour, you're urged to see the Indian
women selling bead jewelry from stands strategically placed between the
dinosaur tracks and parking area.

1950's
