Consider doing both trails at the monument

Devils Tower National Monument的点评

点评：We arrived at 9 a.m and there were plenty of places to park. By the time we left at noon, there was a line of about 30 cars waiting to get in. Once you enter the park, it is a several mile drive to get to the parking lot. There are restrooms, a visitor center, and a water station right off the parking lot. We first did the Tower Trail (1.3 miles) which allowed us to see the tower a little closer and also read the signs that explain the history of Devils Tower. This trail is paved and took us about 30 minutes. Afterwards, we did the Red Beds Trail which is longer (2.8 miles) and that took us 1 hours and 20 minutes with total elevation gain/loss of 425 feet. The Red Beds trail is a mix of dirt and rocks with much of it is in the direct sun so be prepared for that. We did the trail counterclockwise (start by the outhouses where you enter the ramp to walk up to the monument) and we felt like that was the better direction elevation wise (more gradual ascent on the way back up). Be sure to look for climbers - they are fun to watch. You pay when you leave the park. Since we had just done the Badlands, we were able to put that fee towards an annual park pass so we only need to hit one more national park this year to break-even.

翻译：我们在上午9点到达，当时有很多停车位。到了中午我们离开时，已经有大约30辆车排成长队等候进入。进入公园后，还需要开车数英里才能抵达停车场。停车场附近就有洗手间、游客中心以及饮水处。我们首先走了塔楼步道（1.3英里），这条路线让我们能更近距离地观看塔楼，还能阅读那些介绍魔鬼塔历史的说明牌。这条步道是铺好的，我们走了大约30分钟。之后我们又走了红床步道，这条步道更长（2.8英里），我们花了1小时20分钟才走完，途中累计上升和下降的高度为425英尺。红床步道由泥土和岩石构成，大部分路段都暴露在阳光下，所以出行时请做好防晒准备。我们按照逆时针方向游览了这条步道（从厕所所在处出发，沿着坡道向上即可到达纪念碑）。从海拔变化的角度来看，我们认为这个方向更合适——返回时的上坡路更为平缓。一定要留意那些攀岩者，观看他们攀爬十分有趣。离开公园时需要付费。由于我们刚刚游览过恶地国家公园，这笔费用便被用来购买年度公园通行证了，因此今年我们只需再去一个国家公园就能回本了。
