We drove through southeast Wyoming from Grand Teton to Colorado and I was blown away by the landscape. I expected that part of the state to be pretty dull but the vast sagebrush prairies over the rolling hills was gorgeous, and I was shocked that even in that “flat” area, there was always a mountain, butte or something with elevation within eyesight. That was supposed to be the “boring” part of the state, but combined with Yellowstone, Teton, the Bighorn area (canyon and mountains) and marrying up to the Black Hills in the northeast, I can’t imagine a more beautiful all around state in the union! (This coming from a Great Lakes midwesterner)

Being a "Wyomingite" (transplanted to Minnesota), I really appreciate this piece. I've lived in or backpacked in almost every place you mention. I have to correct you on one point... Sagebrush DO NOT become tumbleweeds. Sagebrush are a very long-lived plant with a woody stem. The most frequent plants called "tumbleweeds" in Wyoming are in the Amaranthaceae family, particularly the kali species. Kali tragus (Russian Thistle) is probably the most common. Thanks for your wonderful travel guide to Wyoming, where my heart still lives...

I am a proud Wyomingite. I like your video, as it is quite informative and accurate, except one thing. Wyoming did not "give" women the right to vote, women in Wyoming EARNED the right to vote. The Wyoming territory was set to decline statehood, if it could not bring the women along with suffrage. While you are going through our state and are awestruck by the dusty tumble weed infested landscape, imagine that you are one of the first Wyomingites and try to tell me that those wonderful women did not earn suffrage. The only thing I would change, would be that the Native women and men did not gain their suffrage, as they more than earned it, as well.

Trivia factoid about the Wyoming State flag: It was originally designed with the buffalo facing the other way (away from the flagpole). Someone pointed out that cattle stand with their tails to the wind but buffalo stand with their heads to the wind. So, the design was reversed and now the Wyoming buffalo always faces into the wind.

As some one born and raised here i promise you the rate of gun ownership is higher than what Google states, the other thing is alot of people carry in wyoming because relatively speaking our police departments are small and the police tend to be far away. Even if the cops have the best of intentions and work as fast as they safely can you call 911 in wyoming and there's a decent chance it will be 5-10 minutes for a cop to get there, the people of wyoming realize that and know that for some situations that is not fast enough.

Also, we have the First National Forest in the United States. Shoshone National Forest, established in 1891. First federally protected National Forest. So, we here in Wyoming have the 1st National Park in the world established in 1872, the first National Monument established in 1906, and of course like I said Shoshone National Forest established in 1891. What's the difference between a national park and National Forest? IDK 100%, I just know that the rules in National Forest are not as strict as they are in National Parks. For example, National Parks don't allow you to bring your pet, like a dog or cat or whatever you may have out on the hiking trails and lakes to explore within the Parks. Whereas, National Forest pets are allowed on trails, as long as they are under control and on a leash.

Antelope can't jump? WRONG! I spent years working for WYDOT, traveling throughout Wyoming. I have seen antelope jumping over barbed wire fences several times. However, based on my observations, antelope seem to prefer going under or though barbed wire fences. By through I mean between the strands of wire. I suspect that most folks here in Wyoming think antelope can't jump fences because they have never seen an antelope jump a fence. All they have ever seen is antelope going under or through fences.

I live in Wyoming, and rodeo season is over for the year. Will start up again next Memorial Day. If you travel west on I-80, once you pass Laramie, things get boring. Traveling north on I-25 is a bit better. But yeah the middle of the state is rather boring. Cheyenne, where I live is trying to grow, but its there are people who do not want it too. Plus, water is an issue. When the wind drops to 5 to 10 miles an hour, thats a calm day. But you get used to it. P.S. Cheyenne is also the home of the only fully restored and running Big Boy steam engine. The reason women where given the right to vote in Wyoming, is because of the lack of population at the time.

The "bucking bronc" is named "Steamboat" . Pronghorn are related to Giraffes. Wyoming is paradise. Wyoming is at maximum capacity, we're full. Cheyenne is actually a destination. You're description of Frontier Days is very comical. Women were allowed to vote because the ratio of men to women was 8 man to 1 woman at the time. It was a tool to build the population of the state. Why do you think the Mormans in Utah were 2nd? More wives. Jackson Hole isn't considered Wyoming by the rest of the state. State prison was in Laramie at the time. Still there for tours. Kaycee Wyoming is where Hole in the Wall happened...rip: Chris Ledoux ! The ruts of the Oregon Trail is worth the visit. Not a bad video. You dropped the ball on Fort Laramie my guys! Safe travels.

Wyoming gave women the right to vote to bring more women to the state to build the state because there were 8 men for every 1 woman. That's a fact

Butch Cassidy was jailed in Laramie. You can take a tour of the jail and get a history lesson.

I'm from Idaho but I have worked all over Wyoming and yeah it's a great place to visit in the summer I spent one winter in big piney the high for a month was 50 below zero I've seen antelopes running 60 mph that well under 60 below zero you see those words along the rug and big wooden fence things well they're not bleachers for the antelope races at Union there's snow fence i-80 is the most closed down highway in America in the winter time because of the wind is so hard the reason Wyoming was the first state for women's vote is because the women came out here with their husbands flat Indians built branches and the men died young and the women weren't about to lose their ranch by not having their vote they can shoot as good as a man could so they got the right to vote I've heard it said the state bird is a magpie and I've heard it said that this highway department in charge of cleanup is magpie the state animal it's got to be the jackalope oil is huge in Wyoming and so is coal mining it is terribly sad that Jackson hole area and Star valley got a terrible East infection I hope they get over it when the billionaires bought up Jackson hole all the millionaires moved over into Teton valley and Idaho State prison in Rawlins Wyoming where's the one where Butch Cassidy was in prison when he was pardoned and he told the Warden Gilly as hell free is a bird Sundance kid with some Sundance Wyomingin the US government needs to get the hell out of Wyoming and leave it to the people in Wyoming because they know how to manage that better than anybody else it's a ton of Cody his named after Buffalo Bill Cody and it's got one of the best gun museums in the world I truly love Wyoming I wouldn't live there but cowboy hat on much less getting ran over by an entire heard of jackalopes

I’m begging Wyoming to change its laws regarding the abuse and public torture of wildlife!! The Cody Robert’s incident is beyond disgusting. Don’t visit Wyoming until they change their laws!!

Small business owners are nice to visitors because their businesses depend on tourist dollars. Don't think for a minute they are happy to see you, to them you are a wallet on legs. Statistically, Wyoming is a great place to live but the lack of jobs, poor to non-existent healthcare and the most miserable weather ever you would be smart to think twice before moving here.
