If you are an old guy there are some interesting things about devils tower. Will Rogers built a ladder to the top. The rangers have those photos but only if you ask to see them. Not much left of the ladder now. Kids in the area back in the 50s could actually climb to the top and get a helicopter ride back to safety. :B OK you would also get a stern lecture. If you read about the Custer battle field and also study how Custer lost then take tue drive it really drives home how taking the high point just didn't work out for Custer. The indians rode through the ravines and shot upward. I thought both were interesting. If you just drive through with no history ther isn't much there except a high hill and monument.
