Explore the night time secrets of DevilsTower under the glow of the full moon. This night walk will take place on Thursday, July 17th at 9:00 p.m. The time and date are different than that which was posted in our park newspaper, Columns, in order to accommodate other park programs. This walk will provide an opportunity to explore DevilsTowerNational Monument after sunset to look at the formation and historical accounts of the Tower, local plants and animals, Native American stories, and other nightly wonders. The walk will be limited to 35 people. For reservations, call the DevilsTowerVisitorCenter at 307-467-5283 x 635. Participants will meet at the Joyner Ridge Trail parking lot. A flashlight, jacket and comfortable walking shoes are recommended. No headlamps will be permitted. The walk will last just over an hour and is NOT handicap accessible. The program is free with the $10 monument entrance fee.

It is believed that the Tower got its name when Colonel Dodge's translator misinterpreted the name to mean Bad God's Tower, later shortened to Devils Tower. Some Indians call it Mato Tipila, meaning Bear Lodge. Other American Indian names include Bear’s Tipi, Home of the Bear, and Tree Rock.
