Found this link on Drudgereport today 2016 Nov 30 on DVNP box canyon with fossil footprints.

Some here have surely seen them but hope its location is not too widely known.

The area is closed except for 3 tours a year. Each tour is limited to 15 people selected in a lottery. Scroll down to Special Paleontology Tours for information. It is an awe inspiring experience.

I read about the "Barnyard Canyon" sometime a month or so ago.

Was going to to ask if any members have been there.

Hope they keep it regulated. I can see this place getting vandalized real fast if there isn't some control.

But it sounds like a pretty cool place.
