Moab Vacation - Moab Giants & Canyonlands

 Day four of our vacation we started at a place called Moab Giants which has a 1 mile walking path that takes you through the different periods of Dinosaurs. The kids loved being able to get up close to the statues and there were two "dig" sites where you could dig up dinosaur bones with different tools!

Here is a video of the kids and Carlton working at the dig site. They found something but it was really big and after digging for about 5 minutes, the kids lost interest and just wanted to play in the sand! 

There was a playground towards the end of the path along with a second dig site. So the kids really enjoyed the playground and probably would have stayed longer but we had Canyonlands to explore!

Canyonlands was just another 30 minutes from Moab Giants along with Dead Horse State Park. Lots of scenic viewpoints in Canyonlands and just one viewpoint at Dead Horse.

We did a short hike to this Mesa Arch which was a cool arch to see - but the backside of it just drops off!! Then Gavin got sworn in as a Junior Ranger for Canyonlands. Avery was napping in the car otherwise she would have been sworn in as well! She still got her badge though!

Here are a few more pictures of Canyonlands:

Coming up next is petroglyphs!!
