| Petrified
Forest, Arizona |
 |
Katie goes after some morning wood at a stop
in the petrified forest. Hmmm... Might this have anything to
do with that sticker on the van's door? |
 |
"Area beyond sign closed"??? Uh...Phil
made us go in there! |

overlooking a valley in the petrified forest. |

Ståle sitting on a petrified tree
trunk that's fairly complete. Note all of it's branches have been
broken off as is the case with all of the other petrified trees.
This is a strong clue leading to how these trees were deposited here. |
 |
Reubs & Ståle take a closer
look at the tree's siliceous features... not to be confused with salacious! |
 |
Phil (foreground), Dave (background), &
Reubs (photographer) ponder the depositional environment of the bedding
in the petrified forest. |
 |
Ah-ha! As promised, the mystery of the sticker is
solved! Here, we've captured the perpetrator on film plying
his trade, his motives clearly advertised on the van's door. Phil, this sort
of thing is only legal in Nevada! |

The rim of Meteor Crater from about 1.5 miles
away. Though nearly all of the ejecta is eroded away, the rim
still juts above the surrounding desert. |
