History
In 2000 two boys, Mark Turner (11) and Daniel Helm (8), were tubing down
rapids in Flatbed Creek just below Tumbler Ridge. They fell off their tube
and walked back upstream on bedrock. They noticed a series of depressions in
the rock and correctly identified these as a dinosaur trackway. Trying
to convince adults of the importance of their discovery, their perseverance
paid off as their trail led to Phil Currie, Curator of Dinosaurs at the Royal
Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology, and to palaeontologist Rich McCrea, western
Canada's authority on dinosaur footprints. More…
