The document discusses two volcanoes - Mount St. Helena in California and Mount St. Helens in Washington. It explains that 3 million years ago, an eruption from Mount St. Helena covered the area in ash and buried massive redwood trees, which later became petrified and now make up the world's largest petrified forest. It also describes the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens, how it blew down surrounding trees and the extensive damage caused. The document provides details on how wood becomes petrified through replacement with silica minerals and how the eruptions of these two volcanoes led to the formation of famous petrified sites.
