You are cordially invited to attend: 

"Advances in Western Interior Late Cretaceous 
Paleontology and Geology"
May 22 - 23, 2009
Dixie Center, St. George, Utah
With Pre-and-Post-Meeting Field Trips


This meeting is being convened by Grand Staircase-Escalante National
Monument and our partners to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the
Kaiparowits Basin Project, a collaborative effort focused on researching all
aspects of the Late Cretaceous geology and paleontology of south-central
Utah. The conference's vision is to provide an opportunity for the Late
Cretaceous research community and the public to exchange ideas and present
findings of recent work in the Western Interior of North America. Utah
themed papers presented will be considered for inclusion in a compendium
volume on southern Utah's Late Cretaceous Geology and Paleontology expected
to be published in late 2010 by Indiana University Press. Abstracts are due
by 5:00 pm MST February 2nd.

For schedules, registration, hotel information and to submit an abstract,

The meeting follows the 8th Conference on Fossil Resources, May, 19-21, also
to be held at the Dixie Center. For information on this meeting, please
