ReneThe oldest visible rocks at the Devil's Tower monument are 225 to 195 million years old, from the Triassic period. During the Paleogene period, when the Rocky Mountains and the Black Hills were thrust up from the crust 65 million years ago, magma pushed up into the sedimentary rock layers, an intrusion of igneous material geologists agree created the formation.
