🦕 DINOSAUR TRACKS IN LEANDER!!

🚗 We parked at Green Valley Dr & US Hwy 183 on the shoulder of the road behind a couple of other cars. You can access it by going south on the 183 service road just past where the San Gabriel River crosses under the 183. If you travel north on 183, turn left on Green Valley Dr.

⚠️ Please note that this is not an actual parking area! There are signs on one side of the road saying No Parking (do not park there!). We ended up getting a spot along the shoulder on the other side of the road behind 2 other cars, and there weren’t specific No Parking signs on that side. Park at your own risk!!! Also please leave a comment if you find a better parking situation than this so it helps others.

👉 Head left down the path towards the riverbed down the big hill.

👉 Go left (west) down the trail. If you want to stay completely dry, there’s a path up on the left.

👉 Go back down into the riverbed once it’s not too deep. Keep going past the big boulders. If you can still see the 183 bridges, you haven’t gone far enough.

👉 The tracks will appear in the riverbed just past when the path curves to the right.

👉TIPS:
☀️ There won’t be much shade along the trail. Bring lots of water, sunscreen, and hats.
🥾 Wear water hiking shoes like Keens if you want to walk in the riverbed. You definitely can avoid getting wet entirely if you want. There’s a path on the left side.
🚽 No bathrooms so plan accordingly!
🚗 The parking area is small, go on an off time to guarantee parking.
👶 No strollers on this one 🙅🏼‍♀️
