More from the Petrified Forest NP


Wednesday April 25th.


The views along the drive up the park were absolutly breathtaking, but too many to try to post them all here. Along one old (former) river bank a clan of people had stopped and settled and began to farm the land. They may have been part of the Hopi tribe because of the farming. They built homes from adobe to house about thirteen families and stayed in the area for many years then moved on, apparently when the drought came and the river dried up. This is a picture of one of their house frames.
