Chapman Falls is almost as famous for a fascinating legend involving Satan as it is known as a popular state park day-trip destination. Posted on a billboard at the site is a Puritan belief that Satan once walked along the Eightmile River and became infuriated as his tail became wet. To express his anger, he scampered up to the falls and stomped his hooves on each section of the falls, leaving scars in the boulders of the natural feature the falls descend over. This is where Chapman Falls derives its alternative name, Devils Hopyard.
Devils Tower rises above the surrounding grassland and Ponderosa pine forests like a rocky sentinel. Northern Plains tribes have worshipped near this remarkable geologic formation for thousands of years. Fur trappers, explorers, and settlers alike were awed by the tower's majesty. In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt established Devils Tower as our nation's first national monument. Many have gazed at the Tower and wondered, "How did this amazing formation form?"

Local folklore explains the valley as the work of the devil. The legend holds that the devil was digging a trench to the sea to flood the many churches in Sussex. The digging disturbed an old woman who lit a candle, causing a rooster to crow, making the devil believe the morning was fast approaching. The devil then fled, leaving his trench uncompleted.
Another story holds that rather than digging to flood the county, he was simply in a huge goatlike form, intending to crush the surrounding area. He smelt the tang of salt water in the wind, and fearing his coat would get damp (for he is vain to the point of sin), he fled leaving nothing but a hoof-print, now known as Devil's Dyke.
The famous Devil's Teeth mountains in Senja (Okshornan) under cloud at sunset. I shot this from near Ersfjord beach as the viewpoint up the coast was closed off for building works. The rocky shoreline still provided a good foreground.
This was one of the cool things we discovered on our trip, "Devil's Club" (Oplopanax horridus). It's sort of related to American Ginseng and the Native Americans in the region traditionally used in a lot of medicines. I have some Devil's Club salve and it does help with my shoulder pain.
