An Appreciation of 
 
 The Petrified Forest of Arizona

 "Full fathom five thy father lies; 
 Of his bones are coral made; 
 Those are pearls that were his eyes; 
 
 Nothing of him that doth fade, 
 But doth suffer a sea-change 
 Into something rich and strange." 
 
 — The Tempest. 
 SEQUOIA in California is the oldest creature alive. It 
 had measured a millennium when Christ walked the earth. 
 But "that's no time at all." Ten thousand ages before 
 the cedars bloomed on Lebanon, away out here in the 
 Wonderland of our own Southwest, the 
 "Wind, that grand old harper, smote 
 His thunder-harp of pines" — • 
 
 identical pines that are with us to this day. Not, indeed, as they 
 were in that incalculable Past — for they have Put on Immortality, 
 and are this side of Resurrection. They lived their green millenniums, 
 and were laid to bed under the coverlet of a continent, to sleep ten 
 times as long as Parasite Man has crawled upon this globe. And 
 since, for as many aeons, the tireless moths of Erosion have been gnaw- 
 ing away their league-thick blankets, till at last they are bared again 
 to the Arizona sun — the most imperishable of earthly things, and of 
 fadeless beauty; a "Forest" in Glorified Stone, its very bark and 
 "rings" immortalized in agate. 
 
 Not as that classic Munchausen of the Grand Canyon, Cap'n John 
 Hance, loved to tell. "A forest of petrified trees, with petrified birds 
 flying through petrified air, singing petrified songs" — but prostrate and 
 unmurmuring trunks upon a stark desert bed. 
 
 How great was once this grove of giant conifers and willow-kind, 
 no man will ever know — nor how much is still buried, where ancient 
 lava flows have pinned its sedimentary blankets down. Some 400,000 
 acres of it are uncovered — in extent and beauty the noblest petrified 
 forest in the world. Only the diamond is harder than its "wood;" 
 only the opal so rainbowed. Some cosmic cataclysm mowed it down, 
 orderly and at a scythe-swing. Not cyclone nor freshet — Noah's flood 
 turned against it could not have felled it so fair. It is no tangle of 
 windfall or flotsam. Swath by swath it fell, its lofty tops generally 
 to the south. Perhaps a far vaster earthquake than later split the 
 Mogollon plateau to the beginnings of the Grand Canyon was the agent.

Anyhow, before it could decay, the prostrate forest was submerged 
 beneath some gentle sea, whose boiling mineral springs and slow- 
 building sediments "pickled" it forever, under the inconceivable 
 pressure of two vertical miles of strata — even as we pygmies today 
 creosote piles and railroad ties under the inverse thrust of a vacuum. 
 As agate to pine for hardness, as aeons to weeks for duration, as gems 
 to mud for beauty — so was God's "pickling" to ours. 
 
 As unhurried of the Ages, this submerged half-continent was then 
 exalted from three miles below its miracle-working sea to three miles 
 above it — so evenly that its stratum blankets were hardly rumpled; 
 and the patient Weather began its task. Grain by slow grain, the 
 sandstones resolved to sand again, and found their way to be laid 
 down under later seas to form some future continent. Upon these 
 one-time tropics had crept the Age of Ice; and crept back toward the 
 Pole: and had been forgotten. As dwindling snow lets down a twig 
 imperceptibly, so when their stone coverlet — "9000 ft. thick on the 
 average" (Drake), had melted to Erosion, the great fossil logs sank 
 with their sinking shales and clays. They are still a mile above the 
 sea. In their subsidence they have broken their backbones squarely, 
 almost into vertebrae; few sections are 20 feet long — though some trees 
 were once 240 feet tall (and still so measure upon the ground) and nine 
 feet diameter. A 150-foot log, the "petrified bridge," spans a ravine 
 between rock piers. The glittering "chips," like fossil butterflies, pave 
 hundreds of square miles, and were "the first money in America." 
 Ages before Columbus, these chips of agate and chalcedony were 
 prized by the First Americans — to make the best arrowheads and 
 "knives" that primitive man ever fashioned. Prehistoric Indian 
 pueblos, whose ruins we explore today on surviving cliffs 500 feet 
 above, controlled this aboriginal "hardware shop," and bartered its 
 bright spalls a thousand miles either way, for the guacamayo plumes 
 of Yucatan to the bison hides of the Plains, and the shells of the 
 California Gulf. 
 
 In our own day we have sometimes sawed these logs (with the only 
 harder substance, diamond-dust) into 36-inch table-tops, at $2500 
 each; but it is too costly to polish commercially. One company tried 
 grinding it for emery. Hundreds of these "gem" logs have been 
 dynamited to get the crystals in hollow cores. I have a piece not 
 three inches across; with a quartz heart, and on one side half-inch 
 crystals of amethyst, and on the other their mates in smoky topaz. 
 But in 1906 the Petrified Forest was made a National Monument and 
 saved from the "civilized savage." The railroad traversed it in 1882; 
 and it is now easy of access. North is the Black Forest, some of 
 whose great stumps still stand erect, their futile roots bedded in the 
 wasting clays. The Southwest Museum in Los Angeles has the unique 
 terminal bud of one of those giant Sagillarias. South are the Rainbow, 
 the Crystal, the Blue and other "forests" of the Forest — second only 
 to the Grand Canyon as a chief / 
 
 wonder of the Southwestern y^H^ r>-yti^ 
 
 Wonderland. (/XO^. jT/lAAAAA^Ui^-

To the American People: 
 
 Uncle Sam asks you to be his guest. He has prepared for you the 
 choice places of this continent — places of grandeur, beauty and of 
 wonder. He has built roads through the deep-cut canyons and beside 
 happy streams, which will carry you into these places in comfort, and 
 has provided lodgings and food in the most distant and inaccessible 
 places that you might enjoy yourself and realize as little as possible 
 the rigors of the pioneer traveler's life. These are for you. They are 
 the playgrounds of the people. To see them is to make more hearty 
 your affection and admiration for America.

 Petrified Forest National Monument 
 
 O subject is of deeper in- 
 terest, to educator and casual 
 tourist alike, than the history 
 of the earth on which we live, 
 and the wonders thereof. 
 Particularly that portion which we call 
 America. 
 
 The earth itself — our own land — how 
 did it first awake? In the descriptions 
 that follow you will find a brief account of 
 the earth-making process as revealed to 
 us by a study of the Petrified Forest of 
 Arizona in the light of modern scientific 
 research. 
 
 In this wonderful region you will find 
 beneath turquoise skies pillars and bridges 
 of agate and chalcedony and every road- 
 way strewn with gems that might adorn 
 the palaces of Golconda or the temples of 
 Ormus. 
 
 Long ere the pithecanthropus ex- 
 changed his arboreal dwelling for a cave, 
 or Noah and his family fled from a bank- 
 rupt world — even ere Adam was — forests 
 were growing in Arizona. In the course 
 of ages some cosmic catastrophe struck 
 them down and over them swept an in- 
 land sea, whose sediments subsequently 
 
 buried them a mile or more deep. Dur- 
 ing these long geologic periods, the subtle 
 alchemy of Nature perfected its trans- 
 mutation. Riven and fractured, the 
 ancient logs were again brought upward, 
 and after years of erosion they were once 
 more "living" under the brilliant Arizona 
 skies — not as they once lived, but in a 
 glowing permanent form. They are there 
 today, the most brilliant aggregation of 
 jewels on the globe. There are agates, 
 chalcedony, jasper, onyx and opals not 
 by the handful, but by the ton. 
 
 And these beautiful mosaics lie in the 
 open air, scattered over thousands of 
 acres, on the great Southwestern Plateau, 
 with its colorful deserts, its lofty extinct 
 volcanoes whose iridescent hues are re- 
 born and die each day under the magic of 
 the sunlight, with its vast lava fields, its 
 fascinating ruins of a prehistoric people 
 and its equally interesting pueblos of 
 their descendants. 
 
 The building of the railroad first 
 brought into prominence this wonderful 
 natural phenomena. Many scientists 
 visited the region and made reports to 
 the authorities in Washington, from time

A natural bridge of agatized wood 
 
 to time. Even as late as 1906, a new 
 forest, the North Sigillaria, was dis- 
 covered by John Muir, the noted Cali- 
 fornia naturalist. 
 
 The following letter was written in 
 1899 by the acting Secretary of the 
 Smithsonian Institute, in response to an 
 inquiry: 
 
 "The region in Apache County, Ari- 
 zona known as the 'Petrified Forest,' 
 'Chalcedony Park,' and 'Lithodendron 
 (stone trees) Valley,' is of great interest 
 because of the abundance of its beautiful 
 petrified coniferous trees, as well as for 
 its scenic features. The trees lie scattered 
 about in great profusion, but none stand 
 erect in their original place of growth, as 
 do many in the Yellowstone National 
 Park. The National Museum possesses 
 three splendid trunks, collected there at 
 the request of General Sherman." 
 
 A good account of this locality by Mr. 
 Geo. F. Kunz, is in part as follows: 
 
 "Among the great American wonders 
 is the silicified forest known as Chal- 
 cedony Park, (now Petrified Forest Na- 
 tional Monument), in Apache County, 
 
 Page s J X 
 
 Arizona. There is every evidence that 
 the trees grew beside some inland sea. 
 After falling they became water-logged, 
 and during decomposition the cell struc- 
 ture of the wood was entirely replaced 
 by silica from sandstone in the walls 
 surrounding this great sea." 
 
 "Over the entire area, trees lie scattered 
 in all conceivable positions and in frag- 
 ments of all sizes, the broken sections 
 sometimes resembling a pile of cart 
 wheels. A phenomenon perhaps un- 
 paralleled, and the most remarkable fea- 
 ture of the park, is a natural bridge, 
 formed by a tree of agatized wood 
 spanning a canyon 60 feet in width. In 
 addition to this span, fully fifty feet of 
 the tree rests on one side making a 
 visible length of over 100 feet." 
 
 Dr. Walter Hough, of the Smithsonian 
 Institute, writes as follows: 
 
 "In the celebrated Petrified Forest, 
 Arizona, there are ruins of several 
 Indian Villages. These villages are 
 small, in some cases have merely a few 
 houses, but what gives them peculiar 
 interest is that they are built of logs of 
 
beautiful fossil wood. The prehistoric 
 dwellers of the land selected cylinders of 
 uniform size, which were seemingly de- 
 termined by the carrying strength of a 
 man (or several men). It is probable 
 that prehistoric builders never chose 
 more beautiful stones for their habita- 
 tions, than the trunks of these trees 
 which flourished ages before man ap- 
 peared on earth." 
 
 "This wood agate also furnished ma- 
 terial for stone hammers, arrowheads and 
 knives, which are often found in ruins 
 hundreds of miles from the forest. The 
 'wood agate,' or 'wood opal' is now cut 
 and polished into floor tiling, mantels, 
 clock cases, table tops, etc. The silver 
 testimonial to the French sculptor Bar- 
 tholdi, made by Tiffany & Co., had for 
 its base a section of this wood agate." 
 
 As a result of the scientific investiga- 
 tions and reports, the growing interest of 
 the public, and to end the depredations 
 of vandals, activity in Congress led at 
 length to the passage of the Act of June 
 8, 1906, entitled "An Act for the Preser- 
 vation of American Antiquities," and to 
 
 President Roosevelt's proclamation of 
 December 8, 1906, which, under the name 
 of The Petrified Forest National Monu- 
 ment, placed the forest under the pro- 
 tection of the Government for the 
 perpetual enjoyment of the people. 
 Area, 25,625 acres. 
 
 But let us turn to the detailed descrip- 
 tion of one who has made a careful, 
 scientific study of the region. 
 
 The following is from the report of 
 Prof. Lester F. Ward, Paleontologist, 
 U. S. Geological Survey: 
 
 "These Petrified Forests may be prop- 
 erly classed among the natural wonders 
 of America, and every reasonable effort 
 should be made not only to preserve them 
 from destructive influences but also to 
 make their existence and true character 
 known to the people." 
 
 "Some of the most important consider- 
 ations that may be urged in favor of the 
 importance of this region compared with 
 other petrified forests rest upon its 
 geological relations. It is much more 
 ancient than those of the Yellowstone 
 National Park, of certain parts of Wyo-

ming, and of the Calistoga deposits in 
 California. The difference in their an- 
 tiquity is many milHons of years. There 
 is no other petrified forest in which the 
 wood assumes so many varied colors, and 
 it is these that present the chief attrac- 
 tion for the general public. The state of 
 mineralization in which much of this wood 
 exists almost places them among the 
 gems of precious stones. Not only are 
 chalcedony, opals, and agates found 
 among them, but many approach the 
 condition of jasper and onyx. The 
 degree of hardness attained by them is 
 such that they are said to make an 
 excellent quality of emery." 
 
 "This region consists of the ruins of a 
 former plain having an altitude above 
 sea level of 5,700 feet. This plain has 
 undergone extensive erosion to a maxi- 
 mum depth of nearly 700 feet, and is cut 
 into innumerable ridges, buttes, and 
 small mesas, with valleys, gorges, and 
 gulches between. The strata consist of 
 alternating beds of clays, sandstone 
 shales, and massive sandstones. The 
 clays are purple, white and blue, the 
 
 purple predominating, the white and 
 blue forming bands of different thickness 
 between the others, giving to the cliffs a 
 lively and pleasing effect. The sand- 
 stones are chiefly of a reddish brown color. 
 The mesas are formed by the resistance 
 of the massive sandstone layers — of 
 which there are several at different 
 horizons— to erosive agencies, and vary 
 in size from mere capstones of small 
 buttes to tables several miles in extent, 
 stretching to the east and to the north- 
 west." 
 
 "The petrified logs are countless at all 
 horizons and lie in the greatest profusion 
 on the knolls, buttes, and spurs, and in 
 the ravines and gulches, while the ground 
 seems to be everywhere studded with 
 gems, consisting of broken fragments of 
 all shapes and sizes and exhibiting all 
 the colors of the rainbow. When we 
 remember that this special area is several 
 square miles in extent some idea can be 
 formed of the enormous quantity of this 
 material that it contains." 
 
 "The petrified logs do not occur in the 
 same abundance throughout. They are

massed or collected together in groups 
 or heaps at certain points, and may be 
 altogether absent at others. From their 
 great abundance in the above described 
 section, it must be inferred that the 
 stratum which holds them was especially 
 rich, and the trunks must have lain in 
 heaps upon one another." 
 
 "Perhaps the most prominent of all 
 the scenic features of the region is the 
 well known Natural Bridge, consisting 
 of a great petrified trunk of jasper and 
 agate, lying across a canyon 60 feet wide 
 and 20 feet deep, and forming a foot- 
 bridge over which anyone may easily 
 pass. The Natural Bridge, therefore, 
 possesses the added interest of being in 
 place, which can be said of very few of 
 the other petrified logs of this region." 
 
 A Description of the Forests' 
 Divisions 
 
 The First Forest, noted for its bright colors, 
 is distant about six miles from Adamana (alti- 
 tude 5,277 feet). It is easily reached in an hour 
 and a half. The journey may be made in a 
 leisurely fashion, starting late in the morning 
 and returning at dusk, with an hour enroute for 
 inspection of the Hieroglyphic Rocks and Aztec 
 
 Ruins, and plenty of time to see the Second 
 Forest, too. The chief object of interest is the 
 Natural Log Bridge, which is mentioned else- 
 where. The Eagle's Nest, Snow Lady and 
 Dewey's Cannon are in this locality. 
 
 The Second Forest is two and one-half miles 
 due south of the first one, the trip requiring 
 thirty minutes each way. It contains about 
 two thousand acres. The trees are mostly intact, 
 large and many of them highly colored. The 
 Twin Sisters are an interesting sight here. 
 
 The Third Forest covers a greater area than 
 the others. It lies thirteen miles southwest of 
 Adamana and eighteen miles southeast of Hol- 
 brook. There are several hundred whole trees, 
 some of them more than two hundred feet long. 
 The colors are very striking, comprising every 
 tint of the rainbow and therefore the local 
 name of Rainbow Forest is very appropriate. 
 
 The Blue Forest (smallest of the five), located 
 seven miles east of Adamana, is one of the two 
 districts discovered by John Muir. It is noted 
 for the blue tints of its trees. 
 
 The North Sigillaria Forest, a new "find", is 
 nine miles north from Adamana, and contains 
 many finely preserved specimens of the carbon- 
 iferous period — some of the stumps still standing 
 where they grew. It is located on the bottom 
 and sides of a shallow canyon, with buttes and 
 mesas of different colored clays and rocks. One 
 fallen monarch is 147 feet long. A wide view of 
 the Painted Desert may be had here and on the 
 
 Petrified tree in a stratum of sandsto

way out an Indian ruin is passed. The round 
 trip to either of the two last named Forests 
 requires about four hours time, though if one is 
 in a hurry, all the Forests except the Third may 
 be visited by auto in a day's time. 
 
 Only the First, Second and Third Forests are 
 included in the Petrified Forest National Monu- 
 ment. 
 
 Costs of Trips and Hotel 
 Accommodations 
 
 Elxcept the small hotel, railway station and 
 store, there are few buildings at Adamana. 
 Mr. Wm. Nelson has charge of the hotel and 
 livery accommodations. The hotel has sanitary 
 plumbing, with hot and cold water. Board and 
 lodging may be had at $3.00 per day American 
 plan; thirty-five guests can be accommodated; 
 in summer, tents also are provided for guests. 
 
 The round-trip fare to the First and Second 
 Forests and Natural Bridge is $5.00 for one 
 person, $3.00 per capita for two persons, and 
 $2.50 per capita for three or more. 
 
 To the Third, Blue or North Sigillaria Forests 
 and Painted Desert the fare is same as to the 
 First and Second Forests. 
 
 One of the most interesting trips from Adam- 
 ana is northeast to Wide Ruins (Kin-Tiel), a 
 Navajo trading post, built among the ruins of an 
 Aztec village. On the way you pass Pinta, 
 Inscription Rock, a bit of the Painted Desert 
 and Tanner Springs, a big cattle and sheep 
 ranch on the Navajo reservation. It is about 
 three hours and a half by auto; $30.00 round 
 trip for four persons or less. If desired, this 
 trip may be continued farther north through 
 the Navajo country. Notice in advance to 
 Mr. Wm. Nelson at Adamana, Arizona, owner of 
 livery, will insure proper handling of parties. 
 
 Mr. Nelson also equips camping parties for 
 the Hopi and Navajo Indian Reservations, and 
 for a few days' trip into the Painted Desert. 
 
 Holbrook, the county seat town, has satis- 
 factory hotel accommodations, with prices about 
 the same as at Adamana. 
 
 The Petrified Forest may be visited any day 
 in the year, except when high waters make the 
 streams temporarily impassable. 
 
 Stop- Over Arrangements 
 
 Stop-overs are allowed at Adamana, not to 
 exceed ten days, on all one-way tickets, also on 
 round-trip tickets within their limits. 
 
 Stop-overs are also allowed on Pullman 
 tickets. 
 
 To obtain stop-overs on one-way tickets, 
 notify train conductor and deposit tickets with 
 agent immediately after arrival; on round-trip 
 tickets notify train conductor. 
 
 Park Administration 
 
 Petrified Forest National Monument is under 
 the jurisdiction of the Director, National Park 
 Service, Department of the Interior, Washing- 
 ton, D. C. The Monument Custodian is located 
 at Adamana, Arizona.
