Dinosaurs At Legend Valley

There are two large dinosaurs at the Legend Valley Campground and concert venue. They are decorations from the Lost Land Festival held in August 2024, so they may eventually be taken down, but for now they can still be seen. They are on private property and surrounded by a fence and shipping containers, but can still be seen from the road. No one I talked to seems to know if they will be taken down or become part of the concert decor.

The dinosaurs have been on the property for years, but they're moved around. They might not always be visible in the same spots, or even from the road at all.
