The Tower is an astounding geologic feature that protrudes out of the prairie surrounding the Black Hills. It is considered sacred by Northern Plains Indians and indigenous people. Hundreds of parallel cracks make it one of the finest crack climbing areas in North America. Devils Tower was the first United State s national monument, established in 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. The name Devil’s Tower originated in 1875 during an expedition led by Colonel Richard Irving Dodge, when his interpreter reportedly misinterpreted a native name to mean “Bad God’s Tower”. Native American names for the monolith include “Bear’s House” and “Bear’s Lodge”.

Buongiorno,silvia
Yes, we’ve also been there. It’s a very imposing natural phenomenon and also a national monument. We only arrived there at dusk, so didn’t spend much time there, just enough to take photo. It felt quite spooky in the twilight.
