    The Devils Postpile National Monument, which is only open from mid-June to mid-October, was once part of the Yosemite National Park and was only placed under protection as an independent park in 1911.

    The main attraction of the park is Devils Postpile, an approximately 100 meters wide and 30 meters high cliff of vertical, volcanic basalt columns, which have a very symmetrical, hexagonal shape.
