There are several viewing areas along the road that goes through the park.
At the southern end of the road, near AZ route 180, is the Rainbow Forest Museum and the Petrified Forest Gift Shop.


Agate Bridge


Because of the fragility of the ancient petrified log, they have put a concrete girder under it to keep it from collapsing
Unfortunately it detracts from the look of the "bridge"









We met up with the Crows here again


Jasper Forest
















Crystal Forest





It looks like one of the Crow couple is disregarding the signs to stay on the trail
And they have also been a little sloppy on top of the wall
