    Clues for Your Hike

    1. From the parking area, take the path and go right, then immediately turn left. You will go over a wooden bridge.
    2. When you reach the T, turn right and follow the path as it bends to the right. You will walk along a long wooden walkway section. Continue as the path curves right, keeping the houses on your left.
    3. When you reach the parking area, stay straight on the path, going past the pavilion on your left.
    4. Stay on the path and bear to the right on the wooden walkway. You will cross over a bridge with the large building on your left.
    5. The path bears right, goes over another bridge, and then bears right again.
    6. Continue walking and you will find the post ahead on your right at the 3/5-mile marker.
    7. Continue on the path in the same direction, then turn right onto the path, over the bridge and back to the parking area.

    Did You Know?

    • While still small, the T-Rex's arms were over three feet long and may have been capable of bench pressing 400 pounds each.
    • Female T-Rex's outweighed the male by a few thousand pounds, maybe because they had to lay T-Rex sized eggs.
    • The T-Rex had a powerful bite, about 1,500 to 3,000 pounds per square inch, comparable to that of a modern alligator.
