Petrified Forest National Park, AZ
Tons of trees were buried in a swamp millions of years ago, and they fossilized. They are filled with the most amazing color crystals by now, especially visible when polished. That's why a lot of stones are stolen every day and the petrified forest erodes significantly day by day. Go before it vanishes!
