High Winds Cause Damage and Closures at Dinosaur National Monument

by | Sep 10, 2020 | News | 0 comments

Dinosaur National Monument was among the locations affected by high winds during this week’s storm. The back patio of the Quarry Visitor Center was closed due to loose metal flashing on the exterior of the building and the shuttle between the visitor center and Quarry Exhibit Hall was temporarily suspended. Dinosaur National Monument also shared that the last two miles of the Cub Creek Road on the Utah side of the monument had to be closed due to fallen trees and part of the roof material on Josie’s Cabin was blown off. Thankfully, the cabin received no other structural damage. Several closures were made including the Box and Hog Canyon trails. They also advised visitors of wet and muddy conditions on unpaved roads and winter driving conditions at that time on Harpers Corner Road on the Colorado side of the monument.
