Alright, last but not least I have to share about our South Dakota, turned Wyoming, vacation stop! I haven’t ever been to Devil’s Tower, I have seen pictures, but it was another few hours farther West.
We decided that if we got going on our last full day at a reasonable time, it would be worth it to make the drive over the border to Wyoming because we were already so close.
Man was it worth it! What a site!
It is pretty amazing seeing these rolling hills and then this tower of rock dominating the landscape!
Once we parked there was a trail that some of us decided to hike around the base of the tower.
You almost can’t see it, but at the far left of the tower (picture above) a little more than halfway down, there was a climber. There were several actually and they need permission to go up! I am sure Isaac is planning a trip back there some day to do just that!
Apparently there is a wooden ladder on one side of the tower…you could look through these spyglass deals and see it. Karlena didn’t fully understand she needed her eye open though! 
Birds circling the top.
This tree was so interesting and unique I had to take a picture!
Here are the prayer bundles that they warned about touching!
The hike around the tower was a little over a mile. Karlena led the way most of the time.
It was a wonderful way to spend our last day of vacation!
Have you ever been to Devil’s Tower?
