8 Ways Wyoming Is America’s Black Sheep… And We Love It That Way
There are so many things that make Wyoming special, and it really feels like you’re on another planet when you’re out here. Read about a few reasons that Wyoming is America’s Black Sheep.
No other state has the ecological diversity of Wyoming. We've got bison, pronghorn, grizzly bears, black bears, wolverines, mountain lions, ospreys, eagles, and more.
The country's smallest town is Burford, Wyoming, but that's not too surprising. There are dozens of towns with fewer than 300 residents scattered throughout the state.
When 5,000 people seems like a big city, that's because there's nothing on the outskirts of town. You'll travel for miles between our big cities if you want to find malls, retail stores, and restaurants.
Thanks to photographers like Ansel Adams who recognized the stunning beauty of Wyoming, our signature Tetons are recognized all over the world.
If you aren't climbing a mountain pass, you're fighting the wind or snow on I-80. There's no such thing as a typical day of driving in the Cowboy State.
Many people don't realize that we're home to a high desert, too! The Killpecker Sand Dunes are some of the world's only whistling, or singing, sand dunes. Who would have thought that was hiding here in Wyoming?
Nobody out here even talks about the caldera, but it's pretty amusing when tourists worry that it'll erupt while they're here.
You can travel for miles and miles in Wyoming without seeing another soul, and that's something that really makes Wyoming special.
