Sorry its been a while since an update but unfortunately I had to work.....but i was able to get out to a few spots today.....and once again i saw some elk but they were too far away from me to get good shots with a camera.....These pictures are from Florissant where there are petrified trees.....and i guess a lot of other fossilized specimens but unfortunately a thunderstorm ended my hike....maybe i'll get back there...these pictures are some of the petrified stumps, the sign tells most of the story.
