Immersive Experiences
Bonehunters Quarry for Groups
Experience the thrill of hands-on excavation in our interactive fossil dig! Be transported to Dinosaur National Monument in Utah, where Carnegie paleontologists have been digging since 1909. After being issued psrotective goggles, a chisel, and brush, chip away at rock matrix to reveal realistic fossil casts buried below. Try your hand at being a paleontologist—you, too, can help excavate a dinosaur or mammal!
