Great shot of Devil's Tower. Collected somewhere online, maybe here? Not sure who to credit.

Bschmidt, it is the Carotid. I have not been up there much, but the guy I was climbing with, Rich Berry, was super psyched to see it touching. He did a super job leading it and it was probably the best I lead I have seen anyone do ice. It is hard to see from that picture, but only the middle pillar was touching the other two pillars formed up in front of that one and were hanging about 15 feet off of the ground. He wnt up on the middle pillar and had to break off the bottom of the left pillar which then formed a 2-3 foot roof which he promptly pulled and then had to run it out for about 15-20 feet in seriously ground fall type terain before he could get in a decent screw as the ice was very crappy at the bottom of those pillars. I had seen your post on CC of the Silver Cord. That thing looks awsome. Looks a little like Broken Tree which if you have not done it is well worth doing. It is a super cool route with 4 full pitches with no walking in between and it is only WI4.

Went to try to climb some ice on Friday, but it was 65 degrees and there were two feet of fresh wet snow that was the consistency of wet cement that closed the road and kept us from getting too far. That was at around 8000 feet who knows what it would be like at 12,000. Boaters looking for beg creeking should head to the Big Horns next week as the forecasted 60-70 degree temps is going to melt a lot of it.
