We’re in Wyoming at Devil’s Tower National Monument about to tackle a technique called crack climbing up more than 800 feet of sheer rock. Our goal is to ascend El Cracko Diablo - a route which takes up to sections called pitches that get progressively harder the higher we climb. Devil’s Tower was formed underground 50 million years ago by the same forces that created the Rock Mountains. Magma welled up and eventually cooled and hardened into rock columns over time. Those columns were forced upwards and Devil’s Tower emerged. Of course, there are many other creation stories passed down by Native Americas which are just as fascinating.

This is our nation’s first National Monument. There’s a certain mystique and power about this place. The tower jets out of the ground and completely dominates the landscape. Devil’s Tower rises more than 1,200 feet about the great plains of North Eastern Wyoming and is considered sacred by the Northern Plains Indians. We’re here to explore that spiritual connection and tackle what early explorers thought was impossible - standing at the top of Devil’s Tower.
