Description
At Devils Tower National Monument in Wyoming USA, make the turnoff to Joyner Ridge as you drive in or out of the park to get this spectacular view of Devils Tower from the north. Alternatively, you can link to the Joyner Ridge trails from other trails that start at the main visitor center. Contemplate what this formation might have represented to Native Americans. The site received the name ‘Devils Tower’ as a result of a US Army geologic expedition in 1875. This was despite several maps and other sources labeling the formation as Bear Lodge, the English translation of a Lakota name. The name remains controversial today and many want the original name restored. What is not controversial is the uniqueness of the site, which led to its protection as a U.S. forest reserve in 1892 and the first United States National Monument in 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. Millions today enjoy the legacy of preservation and conservation established in previous generations. Similarly, today we are challenged to continue this legacy for future generations.
