Question: how far is devil's tower from casper wyoming

title: Devils Tower
text: The Tower is sacred to several Plains tribes , including the Lakota , Cheyenne and Kiowa . Because of this , many Indian leaders objected to climbers ascending the monument , considering this to be a desecration . The climbers argued that they had a right to climb the Tower , since it is on federal land . A compromise was eventually reached with a voluntary climbing ban during the month of June when the tribes are conducting ceremonies around the monument . Climbers are asked , but not required , to stay off the Tower in June . According to the PBS documentary In the Light of Reverence , approximately 85 % of climbers honor the ban and voluntarily choose not to climb the Tower during the month of June . However , several climbers along with the Mountain States Legal Foundation sued the Park Service , claiming an inappropriate government entanglement with religion .
