Sauropod (Dinosaur) Tracks

Sauropod (Dinosaur) Tracks (Google Maps)
No Thumbnail
These are actual Sauropod (Dinosaur) tracks from the Jurassic Period. The main set of tracks meanders down the middle of the Blanco riverbed from west to east (left to right). It is crossed by at least 5 other sets of tracks running north to south. These tracks have been a rumor around Texas for years, but they do actually exist. They are not part of any State or National Park yet. They are surrounded on both sides by private property, so if you decide to visit them, take all the photos you want, but please respect the local homeowners. Don't litter, deface, or damage anything.

Given it's Glen Rose limestone, they're Cretaceous, not Jurassic... but they're still cool!

There are several track which are revealed by the riverbed in our times. There are more tracks much closer to the downstream side of the bridge that are now covered in gravel. The series of lines that you see running in the riverbed the way the water flows are wagon wheel tracks. You see these in limestone bedded rivers all over Texas as it was easier than the brush filled countryside.
