Devil's Tower National Monument

 
Posted by Picasa

America's First National Monument

Devils Tower rises 1267 feet above the Belle Fourche River.

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.

What an amazing place! It's just one of those things you've got to see.
