West - Day Ten - July 2, 2005

We tried to get an early start to drive up route 385 and across 14 to Devil's Tower in Wyoming. It's an amazing formation that stands out dramatically relative to everything else in the area.

We hiked the 1.3 mile trail that circles around the base, working on the junior ranger program which involved looking for wildlife. All three kids earned their junior ranger badge here. There were quite a few climbers up on the rock as they had just opened it for climging on July 1st. From there, we drove the straight shot on I-90 west to Sheriden (300 miles in total) and stayed at the Motel 6 after finding a dinner of pancakes at the Country Kitchen.
