Question about AK Boneyard...

[Timmer]

Anybody know what the "gravel" is in the dig site (where the kids unearth the wooly mammoth fossil) at The Boneyard in Animal Kingdom?

I'd like to make a mini version of this at home... Is it commercially available from, say Home Depot or Lowes?

Thanks in advance...

I'm not sure what Disney uses, but I have seen material like that at Home Depot.

Welcome to WDWMagic!

I would guess it would have to be somthing that is Cheap and is easy to get, as I would imagine they have to frequently replace the gravel..

It's been a while since i visited the boneyard. If memory serves me the gravel is vermiculite. You can find it any garden store.

Thanks, Frank, but I don't think it's vermiculite... that may be the stuff all around the area, but I was referring to the tiny pebbles that are in the pit with the fossil here:

Someone said "pea gravel", but I can't seem to find stuff that small...
