My husband and I made a road trip through northern Arizona @ 2007 and visited the Petrified Forest. Newspaper rock was like a gold mine to us, who are avid admirers of 'rock art' of ancient peoples. The petrified trees strewn about like gigantic kindling is awesome. We were very impressed with the visitor's bureau, which displayed examples of the dinosaurs and huge pieces of tree trunk that was not just turned to rock but to gemstones of amazing beauty. I've always wanted to return and hopefully will soon.
This is not just a great video. This is the film they play in the visitor center in the park. I am so thrilled to see it online I am sort of verklempt!!! I love this park and the people who study and live in and take care of it.
As i am traveling southwest along rt 40 looking for labyrinths along the way .... I have come across Oh my this video it made my heart sing .... I am so inspired that I want to go explore and maybe one day volunteer here continuing these once in a lifetime experiences on this fabulous planet.... Thank you who give back to the planet .... god bless you all!
Hello from Maine. I went on family vacations as a child and this was a place we went. See the Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico too, if you're able to bring your family for a visit. An above ground and a below ground "Wonder", both so close by and all.

Thank you for making this video available! Well done! I love that the QR code for it was in the park map. You guys are using technology well!

Hello from Brazil! Maybe my family and I can visit this Wonder in the future. Thanks for the video.

Is there a way to find out who the narrator is? Her voice sounds SO familiar! Does she narrate other videos for the NPS?
There’s a nice cave in my town and they have a piece of petrified wood outside, I always loved the way it looks, would love to visit someday
Nice my favorite place to be.
💚💙
❤❤❤❤
So cool since I’ve been there
I don't get why a video like this show-casing a stunning, incredible place has so few likes - 5 years and only 309 views?
🖤🧡❤❤💛
Great film. Creepy narrator voice. Hope to visit. O
Oh boy......
Interesting video would be better without so many sound effects in the background.
It was all made 11000 years ago in a short period of time. Ask Andrew Hall about it.
