    I visited this park with my parents as a very young boy. I can remember snippets of that visit and hope to one day come back.

    Did you say that visiting the entire park is best experienced north to south? Why or why not? Also, what is the location of the badlands at 3:20 and of the hoodies at 7:00?

    • @JourneytoAllNationalParks
      @JourneytoAllNationalParks  4 роки тому

      Around the 3:20 mark is the Blue Mesa Trail. It is a branch off of the main road and well worth the hike. At the 7:00 mark, it's Martha's Butte. It's a bit away from the road. There are no real "trails" but if you follow a wash (dry riverbed), you will see it.
      The reason I say north to south is to save the best part of the park, which I consider to be the petrified wood, for the end. You see a bit of it on the northern part but the best ones are in the southern end - giant logs and crystal forest trails.

    The world is blind, it looks, but it cannot see what is right under its nose. Speaking of petrified trees; let’s talk about Mount Roraima for example:
    The stone plateau of Mount Roraima in Venezuela (about two kilometers in diameter) and all the stone plateaus (perhaps millions of them) that exist around the world with similar shapes, are nothing more than trunks of giant trees that had life millions of years ago and were cut down in turn by giant people; truly gigantic, up to 2kms. of height. In fact, the trunk of Mount Roraima was cut at 400 MS Tall. The magnetic field that allowed that giant tree to suck all the thousands of gallons of water it needed for its daily life is still acting in the place where its trunk was left (now petrified), which is why they descend from the plateau of Mount Roraima for all year round several springs of fresh and good water, which would not happen if it were only stored rainwater, since the stored water is quickly depleted. Quartz is petrified wood, and on the plain of the Roraima plateau there is a lot, a lot of quartz. The graves of those super giant characters are all over the planet. Most of the great mountains and hills that we see covered with earth are actually the graves of giants; They are petrified under the earth of those very great mountains. With the passage of time, in many places parts of these bodies have been exposed: in drone videos, remains of the shapes of a face are sometimes discovered; of one leg with its foot; a hand; a gigantic femur; cranial concavities that weigh hundreds of tons and have served as houses for ancient men, etc. Sometimes these remains of giants are so large that only the height of a drone can define the shapes. That the tectonic masses were compressed against each other to form the ranges of our great rocky mountains, pure story. The great trees were cut down, torn into pieces and scattered throughout the planet to create all those beauties of wood, which then petrified within a favorable climate and today are our great rocky mountains. I am amazed that our "great scientists" have never realized that all the marble that exists on our planet comes from giant petrified trees; with colors and betas according to the varieties of wood that gave them origin. It is enough to make the comparison between our polished wood and polished marble, to know that both things come from the same origin; Furthermore, small pieces of petrified trees when polished are pure marble. Every tree is a great factory of chemical compounds. I leave it here, because this topic is infinite, at least for those of us who are not so scientific...

    ..now..if someone could find the petrified chainsaw..or maybe petrified crosscut saws or axes..that cut all these petrified logs into firewood-length pieces, that would be a heck of a find!... :)

    was going great and alot of info but it always amazed me that uploaders continue to destroy videos with music blaring. They know everyone hates it but they sit with their hands over their ears.

    • @JourneytoAllNationalParks
      @JourneytoAllNationalParks  4 роки тому +1

      Point well taken. I'm learning as I go and the newer videos have the music turned way down. When I get a chance, I'll re-do the older ones.

    I totally disagree with you that driving from the Rainbow Museum to Crystal Forest is all you need to see on a one day visit. Whoever misses the Blue Mesa Trail and Painted Forest will forever regret not having seeing two of the most beautiful and unique areas in the entire US.

    • @JourneytoAllNationalParks
      @JourneytoAllNationalParks  4 роки тому +1

      The video started with Painted Desert (I think that is what you mean... I don't think there is a Painted Forest) and talked a lot about Blue Mesa Trail around the 4:00 mark. So, I agree with you these are two great sights to see.

    Couple million to petrify, not hundreds. But whats a hundred million

    • @JourneytoAllNationalParks
      @JourneytoAllNationalParks  4 роки тому

      Yes, you are right. The petrified wood at Petrified Forest National Park is from 250 million years ago, but it only takes "a few" million years to petrify. In fact, someone did an experiment to "artificially" petrify wood and saw the beginnings of it in just one year by soaking a log in a silica rich hot spring.

      Fossilized bones in Florida fossilize in 7-12000 years. Many are altered by paleo man.

    Those logs are from Noah flood. They teach lies lies.
