The very red Permian - Triassic aged Spearfish formation along the Red Beds Trail, Devils Tower National Monument.
Took this as we started walking on the Tower Trail - a one mile loop trail around Devils Tower butte.
There was a break in the rail so we go some good shots in with the sun shining on it.

Silhouette of Devil's Tower in Northeastern Wyoming. Looks kind of eerie like it's waiting for the mothership of "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" to arrive.
This was taken from the visitor's center. Devli's tower, an intrusion of igneous rock, is a plug remaining from a volcano. We made the 1.3-mile walk around its base. To get a better feel for its size, see photo #54. It's a closeup of a section about 2/3 of the way across the tower and about 1/3 of the way up.
