Gabriel & Rachel Skiera

Gabe came out to Devils Tower for the first time in 2014, and couldn't get it out of his head. As an avid climber, he fell in love with the Tower and the Black Hills. He began working as a climbing instructor the following year, and came back every year after.
In 2018, Gabe and Rachel made Devils Tower their home & began managing the Lodge full time. In 2023, they purchased the Lodge and have made it their own.  They love providing a secluded retreat where people can feel refreshed & revitalized, & do their best to enrich the lives of all who pass by.

Gabe is a wealth of knowledge on the history of the area, but especially loves the climbing history on Devils Tower. Rachel will make sure you don't go to bed hungry & wake up to the smell of fresh coffee.
These two will make you feel right at home.

Frank has been climbing the Tower since 1972 & has summited over 2,000 times. He turned the property into a bed & breakfast when he bought it in 1999.
His greatest satisfaction comes from helping others fully enjoy and enrich their lives. He is always happy when around and on the Tower, but truly joyous watching lives change for the larger and better.

 Frank & the Tower

The first time Frank Sanders saw Devils Tower was in the sudden brilliance of a lightning strike. It sent a wave of anxiety through him, but the next day he climbed The Tower. Forty-three years later, he's repeated that act more than 2,000 times and learned a thing or two about going up and not growing old.

 Between the Devil and the Sky

For rock climber Frank Sanders, the captivating power of Devils Tower was instant and life-long.  Since his first ascent, Sanders has climbed Devils Tower thousands of times, and even moved into a lodge at its base. There, he shares its magic with visitors year-round, and the climb never gets old.
