Got one good shot of them looking up the skree field and at the tower itself. There's turkey buzzards at the top.
On the way to the Wind Rivers Range, we made a quick detour to climb Devil's Tower via the Durrance Direct route
Not a bad view to wake up to in the morning. That was the RV I hired. I was the only one staying in the campground that night!!!
