We had a fantastic day visiting Devils Tower, despite being briefly stuck at a traffic light near the entrance. Our family took the loop trail around the impressive rock formation, spotting our very first marmot in the wild—a thrilling moment for all of us. It was incredibly hot that day, but the unique shape of the tower and the colorful prayer cloths left by Indigenous peoples gave the place a very special atmosphere. This stop was definitely a highlight of our unforgettable family summer road trip around the Rockies. About Devils Tower:Devils Tower, located in northeastern Wyoming, is America’s first...
