Long Logs Area
Petrified Forest National Park
Arizona
May 2022

The petrified wood in the park was formed 225 million years ago during the triassic period and is 4 times as hard as granite and very colorful, due to the effect of impurities such as iron, manganese, copper and lithium present in the wood during the fossilising process.
