Please join us for the Great Basin Chapter of the Utah Friends of Paleontology meeting on Thursday, October 16, 2025, at 7:00 PM Mountain Time. Please note that this meeting is one week later than our usual second Thursday of the month due to a scheduling conflict.

The meeting will be held in the auditorium of the the Utah Department of Natural Resources/Utah Geological Survey main building, located at 1594 W North Temple St, Salt Lake City, UT 84116.

Our speaker will be Jim Kirkland, Utah State Paleontologist for the past 26 years and a world-renowned paleontologist. He will be presenting Dino-Decimation: The End of the Jurassic in Grand County.

While we encourage in-person attendance, we will continue to offer an online option for those who live farther away or are unable to attend in person. You can join the meeting at https://meet.google.com/qpk-ngzh-xkn.

Please be aware that the DNR building has installed security gates that prevent entry from Redwood Road, so plan your route accordingly and park in front of the building at the main entrance.
