It wasn't really kept quiet, just that final excavation is done. We have hunted down there quite a bit and know some landowners very well. There is all kinds of stuff to be found in the area. One rancher has a village site that has been "explored" a bit and is among oldest sites in NA, BUT, there is no money to explore it further at this time. Rancher said just dig up a couple other dinosaurs on land , sell it to fund the village dig. Feds say no, and don't touch anything . It is a really messed up situation.

If it has anything to do with the government it’s sure to be a cluster. Gonna be a must see here as my one boy is a die hard dino kid. Looking forward to it.

Wow... It was discovered in 1991? And just finished recently. The sandstone it was encased in, was like concrete, he said
