On Devils Well Road near Elk City, OR is an overlook that you can get a great view of the coastal mountains and trains from. The Portland and Western's Toledo Hauler slowly rolls through the mountains on its way to Albany.
How did this Tower Form? Well, it's amazing! I've learned that the process began about 50 million years ago when Magma (molton rock) was injected into layers of sedimentary rock, forming the Tower one and one-half miles below the earth's surface. It has since taken millions of years to erode away the surrounding sedimentary rock to expose the Tower we see today!
I just got home late last night from a recent trip to the Badlands, Devil's Tower, and Mount Rushmore! I'm having a blast going through all my pictures!

A great way to enjoy the magnificent Glen Coe is a hike over the Devils Staircase, a route that follows the old military road that once headed to Fort William. The trail is part of the West Highland Way and is a good walk for the less experienced and families. The Devils Staircase was given the name by the 400 soldiers who battled horrendous conditions to build it in the 17th century.
Devils Bridge is a short walk from the Verandah in the St Philip Parish of Antigua. It has been formed by the sea eroding the rock from beneath creating an opening. It is said that people walking across the bridge have been caught out by the high splash coming through the opening hence its name.
Back in January, IC2466, the last remaining active "blue devil" made a few trips north along the old IC on CN G889. We'd figured it wouldn't be visible in daylight, though we'd later learn we were wrong, so my buddy and I shot it deep into the night, even though that's not such an easy task.
We finished our night far later than we should have, when G889 parked up at Tolono in the siding. The newly re-installed SafeTran signals, moved closer to the road last year, cast off quite the eerie red glow on the roadbed and locomotive alike. Turned a blue devil into more of a... normal devil, I guess. Call it a red one, for fun. A neat look anyway!
IC2466 was built as an LMS unit, sold to the CN after a few years of shared CN/CR leasing, and put into the IC number range. The last I heard of its whereabouts was that it was stored in Markham, though it may well be on its way to scrap by now.

Devils Kitchen is located east of Greybull Wyoming on the edge of the Shell Creek Valley. The varicolored, Early Cretaceous Cloverly Formation is exposed in the Kitchen inside the eroded center of a upfold or anticline called the Shell Creek Dome. Devils Kitchen is known for its badlands topography where soft, layered sedimentary rocks like sandstone, siltstone, shale and claystone get eroded into spires, towers and fanciful shapes. In this semiarid environment there is sparse vegetation and little soil development on these rock outcrops. Erosion caused by flash flooding from occasional thunderstorms carves this landscape with an assist from the other usual physical and chemical agents that weather and weaken the rock. The floor of "the Kitchen" is characterized by mounds of weathered claystone; silstone and shale.
There's a devil crawling along your floor
With a trembling heart,
he's coming through your door
With his straining sex in his jumping paw
There's a devil crawling along your floor
And he's old and he's stupid and
he's hungry and he's sore
And he's blind and he's lame
and he's dirty and he's poor
There's a devil crawling along your floor
So, I did find another decent shot from my session the other day - I don't think it's as strong as my last but I do like the way that the flame wraps around the liquid.
I actually did a little shooting this weeknd between rounds of golf. But, going through my shots I just wasn't happy with anything..... I think I'm having a little inspirational crisis (Haha - now I really do sound like an artist).
Maybe in a couple of days I'll look back on my recent shots and see them in a new light.
One of the huge 'Devil's Arrows', Boroughbridge. There may have been five of these gritstone menhirs at the site originally. Now only three survive. They appear to have been placed to align with the southernmost summer moonrise.
Devils Tower National Monument located in northeastern Wyoming bathed in late evening light. A really cool and unique geological formation, it was formed by an igneous intrusion that uplifted the overlaying sedimentary rock layers. Well worth the visit if you are making a trip through the area. This place is also sacred to the native tribes that inhabit the area, as is evidenced by the hundreds of prayer cloths they have placed around the base of the structure.

One of the most popular spots at Devil's Lake State Park, Devil's Doorway was created by the last Ice Age, 15,000 years ago. Although it is not life-risking to get to the doorway, like these two, it is a very treacherous hike up the bluff to get there.

A french devil tissue view (diablerie) from the 1870s.
It is believed that these pictures might have been a satire on Napoleon. An overt review of his government had been awkward and so many puns and satirical jokes were hidden within these views. Of course they are difficult to read.
Devils Falls is a twin waterfall on Yankee Jim's Rd between Foresthill and Colfax which runs over the American River.

This little chap is AWESOME };0)>
Caged in an old church (until next week) Lucifer in all his gory glory!
the main body is only 1 metre on length and the wings are huge.

If you have gothy tastes you'll LOVE this, it really is cool
Very grainy as i shot at 1600 iso... hate flash
Took a road trip up north of us for a little day hiking. It was one of our few sunny days of late and there was a lot of color around the lake. We even spotted a flock of Cedar Waxwings picking berries off the trees! It certainly got crowded as the day wore on. Could be the last warm day we have for a while. Snow in the forecast!!!!!
Generally this was a bit of a disappointing day out. You can't get near the stones easily as they are in the middle of a corn field and the weather was just dull. I can't say that I really like any of the pics I took. The non-ir ones are even worse, just grey and uninspiring. At least you can usually extract a bit of sky from the ir ones.
For anybody who wants to know what a Devils Arrow is you should have a look at the previous picture, the links are on there.
Devils Tower National Monument

According to the Native American tribes of the Kiowa and Lakota, a group of girls went out to play and were spotted by several giant bears, who began to chase them. In an effort to escape the bears, the girls climbed atop a rock, fell to their knees, and prayed to the Great Spirit to save them. Hearing their prayers, the Great Spirit made the rock rise from the ground towards the heavens so that the bears could not reach the girls. The bears, in an effort to climb the rock, left deep claw marks in the sides, which had become too steep to climb. Those are the marks which appear today on the sides of Devils Tower. When the girls reached the sky, they were turned into the stars of the Pleiades.

An active vent at the edge of the lake is a source of elemental sulfur, and supports a mining operation. Escaping volcanic gasses are channeled through a network of ceramic pipes, resulting in condensation of molten sulfur. The sulfur, which is deep red in color when molten, pours slowly from the ends of these pipes and pools on the ground, turning bright yellow as it cools. The miners break the cooled material into large pieces and carry it away in baskets.
The miners often use insufficient protection while working around the volcano and complain of numerous respiratory afflictions. There are 200 miners which extract 14 tons per day or only 20 percent of the daily continously deposit.
