Coming around the backside of the tower I came across a small herd of while-tails but I made too much noise before I noticed them so about half of them got away before I could get my camera out.
A chipmunk a little further down the trail scared the crap out of me since I was looking for more deer and not paying attention to him.
In a couple of areas the park service had been doing some clean-up of trees that had fallen in the area. Figured I’d grab a photo.
After taking the paved trail around the tower I made the short drive over to Joyner Ridge trail to grab a few more photos of the tower. I would’ve had like to hike the trail but not having snowshoes would of made it a little difficult.
(Yes, you can see where I stitched the photo’s together, hopefully my next camera will have a wider lens or a pano mode)
Devils Tower about the tree’s
If I get a chance later in the year I’m going to try and make it back over to hike the trails and try to get some early morning and evening photo’s.
