Dinosaur Ridge Testifies of the Genesis Flood

Out Colorado way, if you mount up and ride west of Denver and a bit north of Morrison, you can find Dinosaur Ridge. It is a part of the National Natural Landmarks program administered by the US National Park Service. National parks and monuments are owned by the government, but not NNLs.

It is famous for exposed sediments revealing dinosaur trackways. These are the top part of the Dinosaur Freeway, which extends southward hundreds of miles. Mainstream scientists attribute the geologic activity to rivers and beaches.

Take a walk on the beach. Pay attention to the tracks your feet leave in the wet sand. Notice that the waves come in and erase the tracks. It requires special conditions to fossilize tracks, and the geology of Dinosaur Ridge and the formations involved do not support mainstream uniformitarian ideas. Instead, there are numerous facts that point to creation science Genesis Flood models.

Dinosaur Ridge exposes sedimentary units from what uniformitarian geologists call the Cretaceous and Jurassic Systems. Both rock systems are part of the dinosaur fossil-bearing strata found across the globe. ICR geologists place them in the upper part of the Zuni Megasequence. This set of rock layers reflects the time during the Flood year when the water was approaching its highest level.

The lower strata (Jurassic) are part of the famous Morrison Formation. This unit was named for the nearby town of Morrison, CO. In 1877, Arthur Lakes and Henry Beckwith found the very first dinosaur bones within the Morrison exposures on the west side of the ridge. These bones represented Stegosaurus, Apatosaurus, and Diplodocus specimens.
