2016.03.14 Petrified Forest National Park

A barren place.  The Petrified trees were quite nice.  But poor management of the park in combination with conflicting messaging as to how you can explore the park leaves one in a daze.  You are instructed you must remain on marked trails or be fined while also being encouraged to go on the "Off The Beaten Path" hikes.  We didn't get a chance to go on any of the "Off The Beaten Paths" hikes, but from the provided instructions, it appears to be pretty much wondering around.
