This trail has been named after paleontologist Diane Gabriel. Coincidentally, Diane used to tutor me when I was a young 18 year old student at Dawson College here in Glendive. I would show Diane my best paleo locations and in response I could ask a ton of questions. Well, now there are dinosaurs along this trail! Who needs a museum when you can see dinosaurs in the wild! We will visit a mold of an Edmontosaur articulated tail. A 65 million year old turtle. A possible Triceratops nose horn. A therapod and at then end look for microfossils if you feel adventerous. Capped with a beautiful view on top of Cains Coulee. 1/2 mile hike round trip. About 1 1/2-2 hours
Price: $85 1-2 people. $25 per person after the initial first two.

We will head to Badlands Hadrosaur Junction! We will see the fossilized remains of a Hadrosaur vertebrae column.
This is just one of the fossil sites we will see. The cast of a hadrosaur vertebrae column.
