A popular mountain biking trail, the Devil's Gulch of Mission Creek is remote from Cashmere on Wenatchee National Forest Land...there was still snow on the trail, so we had it to ourselves with a few wildflowers to cheer us on, but not much color yet...the sandstone formations in a Ponderosa Pine habitat competing with Douglas Firs, this area has been the victim of windstorms, fires, and global warming trends in local forests, but still makes a nice early spring getaway.

watercolor and ink on paper-According to A. E. Waite's 1910 book, The Pictorial Key to the Tarot, the Devil card carries several divinatory associations:THE DEVIL.—Ravage, violence, vehemence, extraordinary efforts, force, fatality; that which is predestined but is not for this reason evil. Reversed: Evil fatality, weakness, pettiness, blindness.
In the Pamela Smith-Waite deck, the Devil is derived in part from Eliphas Levi's famous illustration "Baphomet" in his Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie (1855). The Devil has harpy feet, ram horns, bat wings, a reversed pentagram on the forehead, a raised right hand and a lowered left hand holding a torch. He squats on a square pedestal. Two naked demons (one male, one female) with tails stand chained to the pedestal. Levi's Baphomet has angel wings, goat horns, a raised right hand, lowered left hand, breasts and a torch on his head, and also combines human and bestial features. Many modern tarot decks portray the Devil as a satyr-like creature. According to Waite, the Devil is standing on an altar.
Started off in a place called Devils Dyke where I stepped in a ton of dog shit, then off to a pub in harpenden where i stunk out the place and round the streets. All in all a good time was had!
Devil's Tower is an interesting rock formation that rises from the Black Hills of northeastern Wyoming, near Sundance.
USGS topographic maps labeled the wrong summit as the Devils Bedstead. (a lower, minor high point) So now, the 'real' Devils Bedstead must be referred to as Devils Bedstead East.
The summit is rated as class III and IV rock, which I would have given a try except...my water filter quit working and I was dry. I know... its a cop-out.
The Devil's Punch Bowl is a large natural amphitheatre and beauty spot near Hindhead, Surrey, in England, and is the source of many stories about the area. The London to Portsmouth road (the A3) skirted the centre of the site before the long Hindhead Tunnel was built in 2011.
The land is now owned and maintained by the National Trust as part of the "Hindhead Commons and the Devil's Punch Bowl" property. Hindhead Youth Hostel is located inside the bowl. The highest point is Gibbet Hill at 282m AOD.
The Devil’s Slide is formed by two hard, weather resistant limestone layers that reach about 40 feet high and several hundred feet long. They are separated about 25 feet apart with a softer shaky limestone layer between them, which is susceptible to erosion and weathering. This is forming the chute of the slide.
The Devils Marbles is a large field of boulders in the central Australian desert of the Northern Territory. There is an overnight camping area and it is wonderful to experience sunset and sunrise amongst the huge stones. The site is known as Karlu Karlu to the land's Aboriginal traditional owners.
