Geronimo - World's Largest Petrified Tree
The two RV Gypsies saw petrified wood just about everywhere in northeast Arizona. Here, they saw the "World's Largest Petrified Tree" at the Geronimo Trading Post. The tree is in several sections and weighs 80 tons. Best of all, as far as attractions go, it's free. It is just laying there right in the parking lot. The two RV Gypsies think it is actually worth seeing, too. It is one BIG piece of rock. |
