Climbers from around the world are drawn to the challenging routes, which range from 5.7 to 5.13 in difficulty. The history and legends surrounding Devils Tower add to its mystique. Named during an 1875 scientific expedition, it was originally known as "Bad God's Tower," later simplified to "Devil's Tower."
