Devils Tower National Monument
America's first National Monument (1906, designated by Teddy Roosevelt). An 867-foot vertical column of volcanic rock that rises straight up from the surrounding plains. Made famous by 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind.' Climbers can scale it; everyone else can walk the 1.3-mile Tower Trail loop at the base. KOA campground at the park entrance. Off US-14 in NE Wyoming, an hour west of Mount Rushmore.

Yellowstone National Park (Old Faithful)
Bison standing in the road. Geysers on a clock. Hot springs in colors that don't exist anywhere else. The Truckster can do the upper-loop drive in a long day but you'll wish you stayed three. Plan for traffic at every animal sighting. Book lodging six to twelve months out — Old Faithful Inn if you can swing it.
