As the first National Monument of the United States Devils Tower not only has a long history with the United States but an even longer one with the Native American Indians. The Tower is a sacred place to many of the tribes with rituals including such things as
prayer offerings, sweat lodge ceremonies, vision quests and funerals. It is sacred to over 20 tribes that still come to the Tower today.

When the Tower is not closed for tribal ceremonies (in June) those interested in rock climbing come to take the challenge of reaching the top. The first climb was in 1893 with a ladder 350 ft. long driven with wooden stakes into a continuous vertical crack running between two columns on the southeast side of the Tower. Today climbers free climb to avoid causing any damage to the rock.

The area is also home to a number of wildlife such as the prairie falcons which sometimes nest in the cracks of the Tower. Climbing routes near the nest are closed until the young falcons fledge. There are also prairie dogs, other birds and small wildlife that make this area home as well as the deer population.
