Devils Tower: America's First National Monument. If you are a first-time tourist, there are so many things to visit and see in Wyoming. Wyoming offers natural sceneries and attractions that you cannot even stop taking pictures at any angle possible. Devils Tower, which was proclaimed by President Theodore Roosevelt as America's first national monument in 1906, will surely keep your head tilting above and eyes staring at a very tall wonder.
Devils Tower rises 1267 feet above the Belle Fourche River. Once hidden, erosion has revealed Devils Tower. This 1347 acre park is covered with pine forests, woodlands, and grasslands. Deer, prairie dogs, and other wildlife are seen. Known also as Bears Lodge, it is a sacred site for many American Indians.
While others are busy climbing up the rocks, I stayed down below and enjoyed the surrounding areas.
