Green River Overlook in Canyonlands, looking out over the massive desert basin. Right on the edge of the red rock cliff, there’s a lone figure standing there, which really gives you a sense of just how massive and endless this landscape actually is.

It’s Fossil Friday, so slither into the weekend with Boavus idelmani! Because of snakes’ delicate skeletons, good snake fossils are quite hard to come by. This specimen is from the Green River Formation of western North America, a rock unit renowned for the quality of its preserved fossils. Boavus is a small, early member of the Booidae—a large group of less advanced snakes that includes today’s boas and pythons. This ancient constrictor lived during the Middle Eocene some 50 million years ago.
You can see it up close in the Museum's Hall of Vertebrate Origins. Plan your visit!
