All custom designed exhibits are being built by TRX Dinosaurs of Sedona, AZ in collaboration with Dinosaur Ridge, relying on the latest scientific research from the fossil record. Each Exhibit Zone will include signage with a call-to-action to explore additional Colorado museums. Consider this a Welcome Center for Colorado Prehistoric Natural History, giving visitors a sense of how much the terrain, climate, and local plant and animal life have changed over 300 million years. * SIX EXHIBIT ZONES OF THE DEEP TIME DETOUR EXPERIENCE
