This is a short 5 minute video of spending some time around the Devils Tower National Monument in Wyoming.

PS. Watch at about the 2:45 mark and see someone who looks like they are stuck while trying to climb Devils Tower. They also add some scale.

The tower almost looks larger from a distance than it does up close. The still shot at the end from a distance makes the overall size more apparent than the video footage from directly below the columnar basalt.

Thanks Alan. That's an interesting observation. I always felt it seemed smaller from a distance. I will have to ponder your thoughts.... :)

Simple - when you are at the base of the columnar basalt you are nearly half way up the lower slopes so you only see the top half. From a distance you see the entire formation and its base.
