What do you need to rent a car in Devils Staircase?
Two things — a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of other coverage if you prefer to opt out. Be sure to check with your rental provider to avoid any issues.

Where can I find a Devils Staircase car rental if I am younger than 25?
This depends on the rental companies operating in Devils Staircase. They often have different age policies. If you've found a place that does cater to drivers under 25 years of age, be aware that extra costs may apply. Conduct some research into what those charges could be before collecting the vehicle.
