Devils Tower
Devils Tower is an isolated igneous laccolithic butte rising abruptly 867 ft (264 m) from base to summit above the Belle Fourche River valley in northeastern Wyoming. Its flanks are formed of columnar phonolite porphyry, creating hundreds of parallel vertical cracks that make it one of the premier crack-climbing destinations in North America, with routes ranging from 5.6 to 5.13. It is sacred to several Plains tribes and, designated in 1906, was the first U.S. National Monument.
