The First Nations would came to winter, hunt, and pray.
Legend has it, seven sisters were saved from a bear by the gods when the earth pulled them into the sky. The giant bear scratched and left his claw marks trying to reach them.
I visited on a Sunday surrounded by happy families and buses of foreign tourists.
I am thankful I drove west one morning to visit Bears Tipi.

Never been there, but the Devil's Tower is on my must visit list. Great photos @jacobts.

Thank you. Hope you can visit it someday. It's a natural beauty.

Your welcome @jacobts! It looks like a really amazing place with some mysterious history.

Wonderful...thanks for sharing @jacobts

Im glad you liked it. And happy I found a new person to follow. :)

Interesting story, with nice photos!1

You may enjoy this film which makes direct reference to Devils tower actually being an ancient tree stump :)

Looks fun. Imaginative. It's actually a butte. Theres thousands of buttes all over the black hills of South Dakota and Montana. They are magma that pushed the earth up. Kind of a weak volcano.

What an epic formation, I am imagining what it would look like at night with the Milky Way behind it. This is a place I must visit someday!

Yes. They prevent light pollution to do just that for Stargazing Nights.
