Description
Although Petrified Forest is not a large national park, it possesses some varied and remarkable scenery. One of the most striking areas within the park is the "Tepees", so named because of the resemblance of the striated hills to Indian dwellings.
These interesting formations demonstrate the results of erosion cutting through the soft, layered clay deposits.
The conical hills have been carved from blue and red mudstone by the erosive forces of wind and water. Iron, manganese, and other are responsible for the colors of the rocks.
