Yellowstone

Yellowstone
This is the valley through which a short side road leads to one of the petrified trees that are actually quite common in Yellowstone, though this is the only one that is accessible by car. The tree itself is surrounded by a fence so that people don't chip away at it, but is a remnant of the forests that were buried by volcanic activity in the past.

I have seen the petrified forest in Arizona Ron but we have petrified forests in the sea off our coast. The peninsula I live on has lost villages and ports to the sea and you can see some of the forest at times if the sands shift in the right direction. This tree is interesting :)

The slopes of the valley: one without snow, exposed to the sun and the other gloomy with snow
An excellent example of sun exposure

Wonderful, Ron!
