Wild, Wild, Wyoming
Elevated spirit of the West
For some, Wyoming might seem like an unassuming travel destination, but that’s one of the main reasons we love it. We’re here to show you why it’s one of the greatest states to visit, especially if you’re in need of a break from the city.
If you enjoy the outdoors, then Wyoming is paradise. There is plenty of space to explore, and we mean plenty. With just under 600,000 people in almost 100,000 square miles, it is the definition of a breath of fresh air. Roam the breathtaking landscape, trying outdoorsy activities like kayaking, horseback riding, dirt biking, rafting, rock climbing–the list goes on and on. It’s hard to sit still in this state.
In Wyoming, you won’t find yourself being overwhelmed by crowds. There’s no traffic, and little pollution, so if you haven’t tried stargazing in a while, get ready to be blown away by the sky. There’s also a plethora of things to admire during the day as well. From iconic spots in Yellowstone National Park, including Old Faithful and Grand Prismatic Spring, to the wonders of Grand Teton, Devil’s Tower National Monument, Fossil Butte National Monument, and numerous other preserved wilderness areas.
Don’t mistake less people for less things to do and enjoy. One of the things we love about visiting Wyoming and experiencing the culture of the West, is being able to play cowboy. Staying at a dude ranch is more of an adventure than anything. Reconnect with wildlife, and the earthy smells surrounding you, meet and make friends with other visitors as you relax in a trout stream or hike a mountain vista. Don’t forget to soak up every second away from the fast-paced world, you might even feel like you’ve gone back in time in many ways. Like you clicked reset.
We could go on about the nuances and quirks that make Wyoming unlike any other state, but you won’t quite understand it until you’re breathing the air.
