I always knew that Dan was a reptilian. He was destined for the UF job.

Sent. When should I expect my copy?

Aside from this troll, there actually is a group of people that claim formations like these are giant tree stumps and that there's a conspiracy to cover them up.

It is a volcanic extrusion that protruded through sedimentary rock. That dude is out of his tree.

The tower is made up of a rare igneous rock called phonolite porphyry. Geologists do not fully know how it formed and there are different theories on details here .

Nicholos Myers, Supervisory Park Ranger for the Devils Tower National Monument and part of the National Park Service (NPS) confirmed to Reuters via email that this claim is false. He said, “there is no evidence to support such a theory as a tree stump or petrified tree roots,” and directed people to an NPS list of formation theories, here .


Not a Tree

I got to visit it a year or so ago - it is such a beautiful area and very cool up close.

Imagine thinking Reuters is "esteemed" either.
