Devils Tower is easily one of the most striking National Monuments. In the midst of prairie, as far as the eye can see, it soars to nearly 900 feet.
We could see it coming half an hour before we arrived, surrounded by nothing but dry grass and clear blue sky.
The bison and cows weren't impressed, they see this sight every day.
We hiked the Tower Trail 1.3 miles around the base of the Tower through trees that were somehow both tall and scrubby.
Playing around with a shot through reversed binoculars.
When you hold them the right way, you can spot climbers on nearly every face of the Tower.
Fun fact: the Monument was meant to be named "Devil's Tower", but someone accidentally dropped the apostrophe during paperwork and it has been "Devils Tower" ever since.
If you ever find yourself in the North Eastern corner of Wyoming, this place is well worth a visit.
