I hope you do a part II to this video including the hike. Really enjoying your journey so far. It's been fun to tag along on your trip. It awakens us to how many great places in our country that exist that most of us just overlook. Thanks for what you do!
I commented the same, Great monument 👍, iconic shape, and great movie… btw watch out for the troll ‘pmailkeey’ who has nothing better to do than comment on what they think is an obvious statement… 🙄
I was there on December 95 and it was snowing with flakes the size of silver dollars while visiting my long-lost Dad that lived in Gillette Wyoming. I found him after years of looking for him, the first time I saw him was in 1956, then not again until 1995. This was before the internet but made many phone calls.
I was there 50 years ago. Looks just the same. Have fun guys. Hope that you will be going to Jackson Hole, that was one of my favorite site in Wyoming.
I've heard Devil's Post Tower. Likely changed. The tower is stacks and stacks of crystals grown as the volcano cooled. It is cool. There is one in the South pacific - mostly underwater and before written word. They built a fortress out of it. Heavy stuff.
I went to Montana this last summer from Kansas... Stopped at most of the places you did on your travel.. The hike around the tower was one of my favorite on the whole Trip. Travel safe.
Hi Adam and Abby, Looks like a great place, but not knowing much about it except that you have to watch out for "Close Encounters Of The ALIEN Kind", Ha Ha,😁👍, I am enjoying watching these Adventures of yours, please keep them coming.👌👍 Steve K
Your absolutely correct my friend.All the proof is right there.Funny how most don't believe that or understand how wood changes over time,a very long time. I guess unless the criminal misleading gov hasn't told them what it really is ,those people have a inability to see what's directly in front of them. That said, it's even more obvious what's wrong with this world today.
Was there on a trip from Australia. A friend mentioned it and I had never heard of it. Went on an afternoon during the week and only ones there at the carpark. It was great. Will do it again.
I hope you weren't visited by little green aliens during the night. Greeting from the San Francisco bay area. Hopefully you two will make a trip out here.
Hey gang!! I heard it's a fossil tree trunk , petrified, can y'all let us know... supposedly it's from bible days n a giant cut the tree down?? Let us know!! Enjoy,.. bro what's for dinner!!!???😁
@@cj599 Just did some quick calculations based on General Sherman's size and age. Roughly, if it was a tree, it would have been 45- 50 thousand years old when it..... fell down... some how. There are fossils of Sequoia, although much smaller, that resemble the color and look of Devil's Tower. Not saying it is a tree stump, not saying it isn't. Looking at the surrounding landscape, it is curious. But volcanic, it could be also. Millions of years is a long time for erosion to occur. Some people watch TV or play video games. I explore curiosity.
I trust the geologist and scientists that have actually studied it rather than all of the conspiracy theorists getting their opinions from movies and tv.
@@AbomAdventures But, but, those WERE scientists with the UFOs...There was an entire documentary on it. They called it "Close Encounters of the Third Kind"!!! I remember watching that documentary as a kid....LMAO!
Good job Adam and Abby, awesome that you both are having a great time. Thanks for sharing with us, Fred. 🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻✋🏻✋🏻
So FYI, as a resident of Wyoming, first week of October is awesome for Devils Tower.
Fall colors are beyond words.
Beautiful scenery right NOW!!! Awesome..
I have been to Devil's Tower. It is spectacular and the hike around is fun.
I was there in 1986. We hiked around it. It didn’t take very long. When we were there, there were rock climbers climbing the wall.
Happy birthday to me. I turned 61 on that day. Thanks for sharing your adventures with me. Pete from Connecticut!
Happy birthday Pete!
Wish the video was longer. Thanks for sharing
I’ll have a second video showing the hike and monument.
You should go visit the Alien landing strip on the other side of the tower. :))
I hope you do a part II to this video including the hike. Really enjoying your journey so far. It's been fun to tag along on your trip. It awakens us to how many great places in our country that exist that most of us just overlook. Thanks for what you do!
Yep I’ll have a separate video of the hike. I mentioned that in the video description.
love it...?? Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)
I commented the same, Great monument 👍, iconic shape, and great movie… btw watch out for the troll ‘pmailkeey’ who has nothing better to do than comment on what they think is an obvious statement… 🙄

that hike is long and the line at the gate is usualy the guy selling the tickets

I was a rock climber years ago
I have been on top of 13 times
Gotta be amazing to accomplish that!
@@AbomAdventures good views
Windy on top some times
You don’t hang around when it’s starting to rain or thunder and lightning up there.
Love all history

Nice long trip!!! You guys are awesome!!
Well...The visitor center was, a "Close Encounter" any way!! LOL
LOL.....Ken, ya nailed it !!....

Camped there 2 years ago. Definitely go to Jackson.
I used to unload road salt down the road from the tower in a gravel pit years ago.
did you guys have a craving for mashed potatoes when you were there?
i lived their for 10 years and never seen close encounters so imagen my surprise after i moved and seen the movie
That's a big tree stump.
You guys are getting awfully close to Billings, MT...my place of residence.
Great view, Devils Tower featured in the 1977 movie “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” 👽🛸
Really ? Did it ?
LOL
@@millomweb … you bored 😐 not got anything better to do?
@@ecky_thump Well, I guess there are some Americans today that still think William Shatner is the current president.
My grandpa, my Mom's Dad worked for civil service. They were the ones putting the path around the tower.

It sure does look like a giant tree that was chopped down, maybe Bill Bunyan chopped it down!
It was Bills bigger brother.
Love following your adventures! Noticed your camp chairs, where did you get those?
The green one I found at Dicks Sporting Goods. The Coleman was a gift.
FYI: The "Devil's Tower" is the root of a petrified tree. No joke, it is a petrified tree. Enjoy!!
All I can do is laugh and shake my head every time I hear that

Your remote mikes works great
That’s cool,been there , just take i15 north for an hour north of Montana and that is where I live.
Is it thee site of "meet of the third type" Speilberg's movie? Or the monyain of "Volcano'?
Yep
My grandparents lived near Devils Tower for a while in the 1930s
What's the name of the campground? Thank you
Devil's Tower was also the site of the UFO landings in the movie Close Encounters of the third Kind.
Amazing trip. =)
damn I thought we were more current than this, that was 2.5 weeks ago!?
I edit when I can, and upload when I can.
@@AbomAdventures and a mighty fine job you do Adam, thanks for all the effort you both put in.
Tony from Western Australia 🇦🇺
There from here. At a lot of them places.
re the sites level and are they concrete or gravel?
UFO's...where are the UFO's???? They said there would be UFO's there...
yes, I'm THAT old...LOL.
Close Encounters!
I hope you weren't visited by little green aliens during the night. Greeting from the San Francisco bay area. Hopefully you two will make a trip out here.
did abbey like the prairie dog town ?
Hey gang!! I heard it's a fossil tree trunk , petrified, can y'all let us know... supposedly it's from bible days n a giant cut the tree down?? Let us know!! Enjoy,.. bro what's for dinner!!!???😁
Close encounters of the ABOM'S!!!
was there in 75
Looks uncannily like a tree stump. Tree of life? That was one big dam tree if that was the case lol

I could have sworn that some guy with a tin foil hat said that the Devil's Tower was actually a real live tree some thousands of years ago, lol
you mean Ken Weber??? LOL
Looks more like the core of an ancient volcano to me. Rock left after the ground around it eroded away. Time scale in millions of years.

Weren’t Indians supposed to be referred to as Native Americans ?
You made it but late by mere minutes.

Watch for UFO's.
