Ep. 147 - Petrified Forest National Park: A First-Timer’s Guide + Route 66 Holbrook & Meteor Crater

from Unscaled Travel Show · host Jeremy G. Long

In this episode of Unscaled, we head to northeastern Arizona for a first-timer’s guide to Petrified Forest National Park — how it was created, why it was protected, and how to experience it without rushing past what matters. We break down the Painted Desert, the park’s best short trails, and the human history etched into stone, then zoom out to the surrounding stretch of Route 66, including Holbrook and Meteor Crater. Deep time, roadside Americana, and a literal hole in the Earth, all in one drive.____________________________________S04 Ep147____________________________________Connect with us on social media: Instagram: @unscaledtravelshowTwitter: @fullmetaltravlrFacebook: @fullmetaltravelerWebsite: ⁠⁠https://www.unscaledtravelshow.com/
