Petrified wood, the variety of colors come from the different minerals it was immersed in.

Agate Bridge, a 110 foot log, looks like they have put some cement under it to help preserve it.

Don’t pick up the petrified wood, someone from New York found out that these rules apply to them too.  There were three Park Ranger vehicles and one city cop there to search their SUV, collect evidence, and write them a ticket.
