Join a Bureau of Land Management ranger to learn about the incredible paleontological story of Red Rock Canyon.

Today, the geology of Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is the backdrop for one of the most visited recreation sites in the American Southwest, but did you know the rocks themselves tell a story of 330 million years' worth of thriving ecosystems? Join a Bureau of Land Management ranger to learn about the incredible paleontological story of Red Rock Canyon, from river estuaries and sponge reefs filled with bizarre invertebrate life to flood plains and sand dunes where dinosaurs left traces of their passing.
