Where is the best place in the world to
find dinosaur tracks?
In the Connecticut River Valley
It was in this valley that the first dinosaur tracks
in North America were found.
The location that has produced more
dinosaur tracks than any other location is the Nash Dinosaur
Track Site and Rock Shop. It was discovered in 1933 and
bought in 1939 by Carlton S. Nash. Since that time it has
produced thousands of dinosaur tracks that have been sold
to museums and private individuals all over the world. The
Nash Dinosaur Track Site and Rock Shop is located about one
mile from where the first dinosaur tracks in the Connecticut
River Valley were found in 1802 by a farmer named Pliny Moody.
Since Carlton S. Nash's
death in 1997, his son Kornell Nash has carried on the work.
