Dinosaurs in the Woods

Four realistic dinosaurs appear to be strolling through the woods, far from any logical tourist attraction.

Dinosaurs in the Woods

Bamahenge at entrance, stay right to see T-rex and two others. Number four is across the road -- follow the small path.

[Daphne, 10/21/2020]

Bamahenge and the dinosaurs were far enough inland to be spared the wrath of September's Hurricane Sally.

T.rex.

Dinosaurs in the Woods

It was a bit confusing where to go after the first dinosaur. Travel to the right of the dinosaur to see the rest. Don't waste your time going off to the left.

Dinosaurs look great. Repainted and standing tall. Had some work done to them since I saw them a few years ago.

Dinosaurs in the Woods

The dinosaurs are all in great shape! There is a small dirt access road that connects the three on the right side of the road (going toward Barber Marina). The fourth dinosaur (a brontosaurus) is on the left, and a little harder to both spot and to get to. The combination of dinosaurs, Bamahenge, and Lady in the Lake make this area well worth the drive.
