Woodland Park

We found a small lodge in Woodland Park, CO near the entrance to Pike's Peak.  We drove out to a national fossil monument.  This area 34 million years ago had redwoods and was much warmer.  A volcano erupted and everything got covered including large redwoods.  The petrified bases are about 4 feet high by 10 feet wide and have been excavated.  Jess took pics.
