Devil's Tower

We made a day trip to Wyoming to see Devil's Tower. It was about 120 miles each way. A beautiful drive.

And a breathtaking sight.
 

I'm not sure which I liked better, The Badlands or Devil's Tower, both were spectacular feats of nature. 

Devil's Tower is made up of long strips of rock that go up and down. If you look closely you can see that some of the columns are incomplete. When parts of the tower fall off they create the boulder area below. 


Here's a picture of the boulder field with Chris as a model to show scale. Those are big boulders. 

Devil's Tower is considered sacred by the Indians and I can understand why. Truly awe inspiring.

    That's really cool.

      We sure are! After spending a year in North Carolina, we are making up for it with lots of travel in 2016.
