Red Gulch/Alkali National Back Country Byway

32 miles - 1.5 to 2 hours driving time

Drive the Red Gulch/Alkali National Back Country Byway and take a step back in time. Head east and see the sandstone cliffs of Medicine Lodge State Archeological Site and view ancient petroglyph murals. You can walk where the dinosaurs walked at the Red Gulch Dinosaur Track Site. See footprints of these magnificent creatures preserved in stone. The best time to visit this byway is between May and October when conditions are dry.
