DINOSAUR FOOTPRINTS HIGH IN THE ITALIAN ALPS
In the news:
High in the Italian Alps, thousands of dinosaur footprints have been discovered etched into solid rock more than a mile above sea level. These are not scattered marks or vague impressions. They are clear, repeated tracks showing toes, stride patterns, and movement across what was once soft ground. Dinosaurs were walking here, turning, pacing, and traveling in groups. Today that same surface stands high above valleys and clouds, locked into stone on steep mountain faces. This alone tells us something profound happened to the earth after those footprints were made.
Secular explanations rush to stretch this evidence across hundreds of millions of years, claiming slow uplift and gradual processes raised these layers to their present height.

But footprints require soft sediment laid down quickly and preserved rapidly before erosion destroys them. You do not get thousands of pristine tracks if the ground sits exposed for ages. The simplest explanation is rapid burial. Massive layers of sediment must have been deposited suddenly, covering and preserving these tracks before they could be erased. That is exactly what we would expect from a global Flood that reshaped the surface of the earth in a short span of time.
The Flood described in Genesis was not a gentle rise of water. It was a world altering catastrophe where fountains of the deep burst forth, sediments were churned and redeposited, and entire landscapes were buried and later uplifted. Dinosaur tracks preserved high in the Alps fit this picture perfectly. Dinosaurs were alive and walking before the Flood. Their footprints were pressed into soft sediment as waters rose. Those layers were rapidly buried, hardened, folded, and lifted as the continents and mountain rang
These footprints are silent witnesses to judgment and preservation. They testify that dinosaurs lived recently in earth history, alongside a world that was later destroyed by water. They expose the weakness of long age storytelling and point back to the biblical record as the only framework that makes sense of the evidence. The Alps do not contradict Scripture. They proclaim it. Creation still bears the scars of the Flood, written in stone for all who are willing to see
