Steep Street 1995

Streets are narrow in Waterfall City and they are steep enough to require the use of steps--large ones for dinosaurs and small ones for people. Heavily trafficked, this scene includes an eighty-foot-long Apatosaurus carrying Will and Arthur Denison and a trio of musicians. A sturdy Chasmosaurus transports a passenger, and all along the narrow lane, shop signs advertise their wares in Dinotopia's footprint alphabet.
