This is a list of towers and tower-like objects on the West Bluff that can make for a fun circuit. The towers are listed below in a potential south-to-north circuit that is somewhat close to optimized for minimal travel time between towers - you may choose to do them in a different order. Virtually all of these towers can be climbed at 5.8 or easier.Thanks to Adam Remus (Remo) for the inspiration and James Mutschler for help compiling the list and climbing with me. There are a few towers on this list that I have not climbed (JM and I did "15 towers in 15 hours") - their information comes from the 3rd edition of Swartling and Mayer's guidebook for Devil's Lake. So do the GPS coordinates.
