The Blue Forest in Eden Valley, Wyoming is famous for agatized blue petrified wood. The petrified trees are buried in an oil shale that filtered mineral rich fluids through the wood giving it its unique blue colors. However, the oil shale makes finding and excavating these fossils very difficult. Furthermore, Blue Forest petrified wood is only found along the edge of the ancient fossil lake Gosiute. This means there are very few exposures of this ancient petrified forest. In today's fossil hunting adventure, we were lucky enough to find multiple exposures loaded with Blue Forest petrified wood which we took home to cut and polish alongside some of our favorite pieces we have collected from this locality.
Stay tuned for an educational video next week where we teach you how to polish petrified wood like this.
