Alberta (Dinosaur Provincial Park) - 20080808-26a

            Dinosaur Provincial Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site situated a two hour drive east of Calgary, Alberta, Canada; or 48 kilometres (30 mi), about a half-hour drive northeast of Brooks.

The park is situated in the Red Deer River valley, which is noted for its striking badland topography, and abundance of dinosaur fossils. The park is well known for being one of the richest dinosaur fossil locales in the world. Fifty-eight dinosaur species have been discovered at the park and more than 500 specimens have been removed and exhibited in museums around the globe. The renowned fossil assemblage of nearly 500 species of life, from microscopic fern spores to large carnivorous dinosaurs, justified its becoming a World Heritage Site in 1979. (Wikipedia)

A blast from the past!  A view of the badlands beyond the cottonwood trees along the river.  We visited this park during a cross-Canada drive.  Amazing place, especially the Royal Tyrrell Dinosaur Museum.
