The entrance sign as we left. Yes.
After driving through hours of flat farmland, this unexpected feature stole the skyline.
As we drove closer, we began to realize how massive Devil's Tower truly is.
This park ranger explains how insignificant a human lifespan is on a geological timeline.
While the Western world has its scientific theories, Native Americans believe this rock grew out of the ground to save seven children from a bear.
A closer look reveals the hexagonal shape of the rock columns.
We found the mix of scientific and spiritual values of this tower to be compelling.
En route to our next destination, the road through Bighorn National Forest took us to high elevations.
High elevations plus low temperatures equals snow!
