Devils Tower Wyoming from the entrance road inside the first US National Monument. The road circles around the tower to the Visitor Center. From this spot a trail goes to the tower; once there a short easy trail encircles the base of the Tower which is also accessible from the Visitor Center. More in PhotoStream and/or Black Hills album.

The area is located near Wauchope, approximately 114 km south of Tennant Creek, in the Northern Territory. The site is known as Karlu Karlu to the land's Aboriginal traditional owners. The ‘Devils Marbles’ or ‘Karlu Karlu’ with its gigantic, rounded granite boulders, some spectacularly poised, is a remarkable landscape. Scattered clusters of these ‘marbles’, including many balancing rocks, are spread across a wide, shallow valley. The Devils Marbles is a nationally and internationally recognised symbol of Australia’s outback.
One of BR's last steam locomotives at Devil's Bridge on the narrow gauge Vale of Rheidol railway. I don't know how this line ended up in BR ownership and remained this way until it was privatised in 1989, but it's interesting nevertheless.
This is the only one of the many pictures I took on that day that turned out OK. A problem with the shutter on my Olympus OM-10 meant that all the others were overexposed and suffered from terrible camera shake. Unfortunately, this affected so many of my photos from around this time before I realised there was something wrong with the camera, not me!
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 "Devil Mountain" obviously has quite a few legends associated with it. The most well known is a version involving a Franciscan padre from a nearby mission, who in defiance of his new Native converts decides to ascend the cursed mountain to show the glory of God. At the top, he observes the hundreds of miles of land, which in his mind sprang up with cathedrals, orchards and gardens. At this point, the Devil shows up as an elderly, well dressed figure, and before he could be driven off, the Devil tempts the friar with a vision of the future. Succumbing to the knowledge, the padre agrees. With a flourish of his hat, the Devil bids the padre to look to the West, where Spanish soldiers and friars head off with the horses and banners and crosses into the sunset. Taken aback, the friar replies, “The seed they have planted shall thrive and prosper on this fruitful soil.” The Devil then points to the East, where come large groups of men with blue eyes and blonde hair appear, and the trees and ground tear up as they arrive. Horrified, the padre asks why the newcomers arrive, and is responded by a trip to the underworld, where he finds flowing rivers of gold. The Devil offers the padre to return to Spain to enjoy his life and delay the onslaught, but is driven off by the padre, who is wounded in the fight. And of course the inevitable arrives.
This version is quite popular, and in fact I have seen a painting of it at one of California's old state capitols. However this version was actually written in 1863 as the "Legend of Monte Diablo" by the famed author Bret Harte in the Atlantic Monthly. He appeared to have made up the entirety of the story.

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.
