Devils Tower in Wyoming is a large rock monilith that was formed by ancient volcanic activity. The theory is that magma welled up in an acient volcano, hardened, and eventually the volcano eroded away, leaving the hard magma center. The interesting black lines are columnar joints which tell the story of weathering and the cooling history of rock.
Devils Tower is a popular mecca for technical rock climbers, but has hiking trails all around it for those who just want to admire the view. The tower was featured in the Stephen Spielberg movie "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" An interesting stop for any visit to Northeast Wyoming!

We packed up our camp and headed to the Tower. Devils Tower is volcanic in nature, the theory is that hundreds of thousands of years ago, magma welled up inside a soft mountain, and over the eons the mountain eroded away, leaving the hardened tower we see today. We stopped at the visitor center first, then we walked the trail around the mountain, and up it as high as we could get without technical climbing permits. Tyler clambered up the rocks like a billy goat! We wat...

Even though I couldn't make it to Devil's Tower before sunset, I wasn't worried. I had my tripod in the car and the waning sun could still provide enough light if I just held my camera shutter open manually. It wasn't until after I drove the extra 30 miles to the tower, accepted the fact that NO ONE would be around to help if something happened and fumbled with my tripod in the dark for a good twenty minutes, that I realized I had NO IDEA how to do that with my camera! The end result was a ha...

Got up at 6:00am and headed north to Livingston, Montana. Stopped by McDonalds for a quick breakfast and got on I-90 East. Our first stop on our trip is Devils Tower, Wyoming. It was 31 miles from I-90. A beautiful drive and lots of animals to see. For instance, horses, cows, antelope, and deer. We started off in Montana and went through Wyoming and into South Dakota.
Devils Tower is awesome. When you first drive into the park you pass a large group of prairie dogs running and barking. Cute ...

I have vivid memories of Devils Tower from my early childhood! I remember clearly running through the tower trail through the boulders to find my mother, I remember sitting at the cafe near the entrance if the park with my family reading a Native American legend about how the tower came into existence, and I remember the excitement in my heart when I first looked up at the tower.. The tower has fascinated me ever since and I was ecstatic to finally had the chance to revisit the Tower when I w...
