Away from the Crowds in Wyoming
Devils Tower is the first declared National Monument in the US. It is not really known how this formed into such a unique shape. Legend has it that two girls were playing, and along came giant bears. They tried to run away from the bears and climbed to the top of a rock, praying to be saved. Then the rock rose high up into the air, and the girls were saved while the bears left their claw marks on the side of the mountain trying to climb it but failing. The Devils Tower received the honor of becoming the first National Monument in 1906, 13 years after the first recorded climb of the mountain by William Rogers and W.L. Ripley in 1893.
