Devils Tower

2009.09.30

Devils Tower rises 1267 feet above the Belle Fourche River. Once hidden, erosion has revealed Devils Tower. This 1347 acre park is covered with pine forests, woodlands, and grasslands. Deer, prairie dogs, and other wildlife are seen.

Also known as Bears Lodge, it is a sacred site for many American Indians.

President Theodore Roosevelt proclaimed Devils Tower the first national monument in 1906.

pdsdville Love the shot with the hay in the foreground. I can understand the feeling of sacred ground. It should be sacred ground for everyone not just the American Indians.

Jannie Wow Jackie, I love your composition. The hay bales in the field just make this shot!

TheBigHush Fiendishly stunning! Is it climbable?... both physically and legally?
