Those and other icons of the National Park System are undeniably spectacular, and to experience their wonders is well worth braving the crowds they inevitably draw. But lest you think the big names are the whole story, consider that the vast park network also boasts plenty of less well-known destinations that are beautiful, historic, or culturally significant—or all of the above. Some of these gems are off the beaten track, others are slowly rising to prominence, and a few are simply overshadowed by bigger, better-publicized parks. But these national parks, monuments, historic places, and recreation areas are overlooked by many, and that’s a mistake you won’t want to make. nobodthe places y knows For every Yosemite, there’s a lesser-known park where the scenery shines and surprises.

  • Name Bear Lodge Was "Well Applied" and Should Be Retained (1880:221) Early Exceptions Who Accepted Dodge1s New Name Were a Military Engineer, Major G
    NAMING BEAR LODGE D. White, 1998, Page 3 BACKGROUND Theodore Roosevelt created Devils Tower National Monument in 1906, as the first national monument in the United States. The name of the monument came from its central feature, a tower-like column ofphonolite porphyry 8651 high, which first appeared on published maps in 11 11 I857 as "Bears Lodge ( a direct and correct translation ofthe Lakota name "Mato Tipi ) but was renamed by Col. Richard Irving Dodge in 1875 as "Devil's Tower, 11 an epithet which Dodge claimed to be a "proper modification" of the "Indian" name "Bad God's Tower." The new name was at first scorned even by the scientific members of Dodge's expedition, and variants of "Bear Lodge" and "Mato Tipi" (the original Lakota name) continued to appear on published maps. In later years Maj. Gen. H. L. Scott attempted to have the name "Devil's Tower" removed from the feature. However, largely due to the success of Dodge1s several books (Sundance Times 1927, Kiger 1996d), and perhaps partly due to sentiments toward Indian people, the name "Devil's Tower" became most widely used. A diverse set of indigenous names continued to be used by American Indian Tribes having historical and cultural affiliation with the tower. With increasing institutional attention to American Indian cultural issues emerging in the final quarter of the twentieth century, the matter of the name emerged once again into public debate. When the National Park Service commissioned an ethnographic overview ofDevils Tower National Monument, the name was identified as a key issue and the researchers recommended that the National Park Service "consider renaming Devils Tower, giving it a name (proposed by the tribes) that is more ethnographically appropriate" (Hanson and Chirinos 1997:34).

  • Geology of Devils Tower National Monument Wyoming
    Geology of /« H t» , Devils Tower tl National Monument Wyoming GEOLOGICAL SURVEY BULLETIN 1021-1 O S3 oSc o os *3 w T A CONTRIBUTION TO GENERAL GEOLOGY By CHARLES S. ROBINSON ABSTRACT Devils Tower is a steep-sided mass of igneous rock that rises above tne sur- ^ ronnding hills and the valley of the Belle Fourche River in Crook County, Wyo. It is composed of a crystalline rock, classified as phonolite porphyry, that when -(. fresh is gray but which weathers to green or brown. Vertical joints divide the rock mass into polygonal columns that extend from just above the base to the * top of the Tower. i The hills in the vicinity and at the base of the Tower are composed of red, 1 yellow, green, or gray sedimentary rocks that consist of sandstone, shale, or gypsum. These rocks, in aggregate about 400 feet thick, include, from oldest to youngest, the upper part of the Spearfish formation, of Triassic age, the A Gypsum Spring formation, of Middle Jurassic age, and the Sundance formation, of Late Jurassic age. The Sundance formation consists of the Stockade Beaver ~t, shale member, the Hulett sandstone member, the Lak member, and the Red- water shale member. * The formations have been only slightly deformed by faulting and folding. Within 2,000 to 3,000 feet of the Tower, the strata for the most part dip at 3°-5° towards the Tower. Beyond this distance, they dip at 2°-5° from the Tower. The Tower is believed to have been formed by the intrusion of magma into the sedimentary rocks, and the shape of the igneous mass formed by the cooled k .
