      While the Mohawk is very much a locals and hunters bar and restaurant, it's also an easy-going and very welcoming joint. The beer's cold, the meals are generous and the decor is well, let's just say it's not for the squeamish. ...

Uncovered by a flood in 1982, this cluster of some 500 tracks from the Cretaceous Period is protected by a fence, but you still can get close enough to ...
