1. World's (Former) Largest Jackalope, Douglas

Did you know that the mythical Jackalope was a Wyoming creation? You can see what was once the world's largest Jackalope at the Rail Museum in Douglas.

2. Sanford's Grub & Pub, Casper

This entire retro building is surrounded by oddities! From old gas pumps to vintage cars and trucks, to dinosaurs and sharks, Sanford's shows it all off.

3. World's Largest Elkhorn Arch

Jackson's famous town square has got nothing on Afton! Thousands of elk antlers create this record-setting arch across the main street through town.

4. Fossil Butte

Fossil Butte is a historic site where you can look back in time! See remnants of the Green River Formation from when Wyoming was under an ocean.

5. Independence Rock

Independence Rock was an important sight along the Oregon Trail, and today you can climb to the top of this stone hill and see for miles.

6. Little America

Little America was once known as the world's largest gas station! Now, this roadside pit stop along I-80 is a whole community that's worth visiting.

7. Ames Monument

The Ames Brothers Monument was built trackside, but it got left out on its own as the track paths changed. Both of the Ames Brothers honored here turned out to be swindlers, though, so it's probably better off.
