DINOSAUR EXCAVATION
BC’s first (and western Canada’s oldest) accumulation of dinosaur skeletal material was discovered in a canyon near Tumbler Ridge in 2002. The TRMF palaeontologists spent much of the summers of 2003, 2004 and 2006 excavating the site. Well over 200 bones have been removed and await preparation in the Peace region Palaeontology Research Centre. This fragile site is not accessible to the public.

EXHIBITS
The Community Centre houses the non-palaeontological exhibits, and includes an interactive display, while the Dinosaur Discovery gallery houses the palaeontological exhibits. Both venues are well signposted in Tumbler Ridge.

LECTURES
The Museum Foundation presents winter and summer lecture series in co-operation with the Tumbler Ridge Public Library. Phone 250 242 4350 for an updated schedule.
