§ 02 — OVERVIEW
The Dry Creek Petrified Tree Environmental Education Area is located about 13 miles east of Buffalo, Wyoming. The site offers visitors an opportunity to discover the history of the northeastern Wyoming landscape.
About 60 million years ago these red sage hills and sagebrush country were a jungle-like swamp with towering Metasequoia trees. Many of these trees still exist as petrified wood. A 0.8 mile interpretive loop trail winds its way through portions of remnant petrified trees. Vault toilets and a shelter with picnic tables are available. Dispersed camping is allowed in the recreation area, outside of the fenced-in trail and picnic area.
