Devils Tower National Monument, September 2003
On our way home from Grand Teton National Park, we planned to stop in Rapid City, SD to visit some friends. Along the way to Rapid City we briefly stopped at Devil's Tower. During our visit we hiked the Tower Trail along the base of the monolith.
Devil's Tower was America's first National Monument, granted that status by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1906. It is composed of volcanic rock that was once molten and forced upwards between other rock. The molten material did not reach the surface, but instead cooled as it was forced up. Over time the surrounding rock was weathered away by erosion to reveal the Tower's presence.

The Devils Postpile is an amazing sight. I could attempt to write a description of how this formation was created, but you'd be better off checking out this link.
For a scale, check out the size of the trees. These are huge columns of rock.
The Childrens Graveyard on the Island of Royale. Most of the Children died of Childhood diseases. Emilien was 27 months when he died in 1906

I'm the devil, or I'm wearing a scary hockey mask from Kingdom of Loathing that has horns. The Office Space reference is nice.
Note in particular the crazy dude who has his crazy girlfriend on his shoulders while standing on Devil's Bridge. She was screaming and a girl that was watching this unfold began having a panic attack! It was hilarious.

Sitting on the devil's stone. When the devil saw a new building being erected he thought they were building a pub and gave a hand. The building went on apace, but when he realised they were building a church he decided to throw a great big stone to destroy the building. The architect convinced him not to do this by promising to build a wine bar opposite and so the devil placed the stone outside the church instead.
Devils Tower is a butte, possibly laccolithic, composed of igneous rock in the Bear Lodge ... Devils Tower was the first United States National Monument, established on September 24, 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. .... a prime example being the columnar “hoodoo” formations at Bryce Canyon National Park.
An unusual geologic formation in the Eastern Sierra, the Devil's Postpile is a major attraction for the area.

Livingstone Island, Zambia
Devil's Pool is adjacent to the famous Livingstone Island situated on the edge of the Victoria Falls.
During the drier months of the year, May to October, it is possible to walk along the lip of the falls. This can only be done from the Zambian side. After thousands of years of erosion, many rock pools have formed and one of them has formed right on the very edge of the sheer drop.
Over 500 million litres of water a minute cascade over the almost 2km wide falls, causing a deafening and spectacular explosion of spray which can be seen 30 miles away. This is why it is known locally as Mosi-oa-Tunya, or The Smoke that Thunders.
You can find guides who will take you on the Zambian side, at the entrance to the Falls.
