Passing thru next week, hoping to climb but we have the dogs. I've done some research and know it's tricky with the mutts. Any insight from the locals?
Thanks

Lookin for like a dog sitter or a chill, shady camp scene to set up a dog run. I agree, it seems grim. No intentions of taking them to the actual monument.
Thanks again

it is a really tough place to bring a dog. generally you have a 3rd or 4th class scramble to get to the base of the routes, and the staging area is often small, not flat, and exposed. i would advise against it.

I don't think they even allow dogs within the National Monument...?

The Tower is not at all a good place for dogs. Not allowed out of the parking area, and can't be left unattended at any time.

Awesome. Thanks for the link Jason. Boarding may be the only way to go.

Devils Tower is now a National Park.
