Devils Tower is a butte standing 1267 feet above the Belle Fourche River Valley in the Black Hills area of northeast Wyoming. It used to be buried, but erosion removed the softer rock around it, revealing this amazing formation. The tower became the nation's first National Monument in 1906.
The tower is a sacred place for several Native American tribes, and there are lots of legends about it. One story is that it was created by a giant bear that clawed grooves in the side of a mountain while chasing Indian maidens.

I think this place really deserves a monument status despite Devil's Postpile National Monument has stolen all the fame to the west of Mammoth Lakes. They were all resulted from the same volcanic eruption over hundred thousands years ago. Here 'a an extract from Atlas Obsura describing the process of creating such interesting column formation: "As the colossal torrents of lava washed over the built up ash it baked the ash to a layer of stone in an instant. Now after millennia of erosion from wind and water the bottom layer and the top layer of cooled lava can be clearly seen, taking the form of rocky waves bisected by a dividing line. In certain sections along the tuff, the stone has turned into bulbous columns known as degassing pipes creating a veritable forest of oddly shaped stone"
Devils Garden in Arches National Park is one of the premier locations in the park. Here you’ll find arches, spires, and a large concentration of narrow rock walls called “fins.” Fins form when rainwater erodes parallel fractures caused by the uplift of salt deposits below the surface. Fins eventually erode and give way to the formation of arches

An large space of common salt scoured by wind and rain into jagged spires. Therefore improbably saw-toothed that "only the devil may play golf on such rough links. Listen rigorously and you will hear feels like small pops and pings - the sound is virtually billions of small salt crystals detonating apart as they expand and accept the warmth.

Always yours, K e t l e r
The Pont del Diable is a medieval bridge crossing the river Llobregat connecting Martorell and Castellbisbal in Catalonia, Spain. It was constructed in 1283 on foundations of an older Roman bridge.
In the background the mountain of Montserrat is shrouded in cloud.

A very strange almost alien looking fungi. I found this one last week in France, there were lots of these in "eggs" yet to emerge but only a couple came out while I was there.

BURGOYNE.
(sympathetically). Now there, Mr. Anderson, you talk like a civilian, if you will excuse my saying so. Have you any idea of the average marksmanship of the army of His Majesty King George the Third? If we make you up a firing party, what will happen? Half of them will miss you: the rest will make a mess of the business and leave you to the provo-marshal’s pistol. Whereas we can hang you in a perfectly workmanlike and agreeable way. (Kindly) Let me persuade you to be hanged, Mr. Anderson?
JUDITH.
(sick with horror). My God!
RICHARD.
(to Judith). Your promise! (To Burgoyne) Thank you, General: that view of the case did not occur to me before. To oblige you, I withdraw my objection to the rope. Hang me, by all means.
BURGOYNE.
(smoothly). Will 12 o’clock suit you, Mr. Anderson?
RICHARD.
I shall be at your disposal then, General.

Death Valley is such an inhospitable place that early explorers named many features after the devil. These approximately 6-foot-tall clumps of arrowweed were perhaps mistaken in the shimmering heat for corn shocks left to dry after harvest. The incessant wind blows the sand away from the root of the arrowweed, leaving the plant on a pedestal of roots and dirt. The native Americans used the stems of the plant for arrows.

I think this frozen waterfall at Devil's Punchbowl looks like a wedding dress. Can't tell very well but this is a tall falls (37m or 121 ft). The falls is frozen from top to bottom creating an ice volcano. Near the top its cracked allowing water to escape down the sides. It was very cold standing there.

One of Australia's most iconic reptiles, the spike-covered Thorny Devil lives in the hot arid interior of the country. These lizards jerk as they move along the sand dunes, feeding on thousands of ants per day.
Thorny Devils are so specialised for life in the desert, that they can lay in any dew they come across and absorb water through capillary action to their mouth via grooves in their scales!
A 2 shot pano of Cwm Idwal looking over into the Devil's Kitchen. I really wanted a still calm lake but that was never going to happen!
All of these very hot flaming projects originated from my June 2022 campfires then worked into what you see....Enjoy the dancing flames !
