Blue Mountain Village RV Park

Blue Mountain Village RV Park Blue Mountain Village Rv Park is is the closest RV Park to Dinosaur National Monument! (1.5 miles) The Monument was originally established as a national monument to protect an area that was one of the most productive sources of dinosaur bones in the world.

This original area, the Quarry Area, contains a quarry with some 1,600 exposed bones from 11 different dinosaur species. Near the quarry are a short nature hike, a pleasant scenic drive, Indian petroglyphs, and the preserved cabin of a female homesteader.

Dinosaur National Monument was later expanded to include 300 square miles of great, high desert canyon country through which the Green and Yampa Rivers flow. This area, the Canyon Country, offers good scenery and some hiking and white water rafting opportunities. You'll want to spend some time in each.

Dinosaur National Monument straddles the Utah/Colorado border in the northwest corner of Colorado. The bulk of the canyon country area lies in Colorado. About 25% of the park, including the entire quarry area, is in Utah. The nearest substantial towns are Rangely, about 25 miles to the south, or Craig, roughly 50 miles east.
