    It was a beautiful drive to reach the Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument. While the visitor center is still closed, you can at least go inside to get a map and have all your questions...

    This place is awesome for families and such. We had such a good time here collecting various leaf and insect fossils. Just make sure to be careful when splitting the paper thin shale with razor blades.

    Brought my kids here for Father's Day, my kids (3 and 6) loved it. Nancy and the other woman (D?) were helpful and great with kids. Easily found a few nice fossils, great value for a combination of the experience and things to take home.
