18 miles west of Fossil, Oregon is the 1,969 acre Clarno Unit of the John Day Fossil Beds.
Exhibits, hiking trails and picnic areas are provided for visitors.
The Palisade cliffs are a prominent feature of the Clarno Unit and were formed from volcanic mudflows 44 million years ago.
A huge diversity of fossils are found in these mudflows preserving the last moments of small four-toed horses,
massive rhino-like brontotheres, crocodilians, and carnivorouse creodonts.
