Petrified Log~
Thousands of logs litter a stretch of grassland at Petrified Forest National Park in northeastern Arizona. From far away, the logs might look ordinary. But they contain a surprise. The shiny, multicolored insides of the stumps are made of rock, not wood! How did the trees turn to stone? It wasn’t with the help of a magician. Instead the transformation was the result of a natural process that took place over millions of years.
