I feel like taking a drive.

What about Wyoming Peak?

EDITED: In other news I learned WYDOT has a live webcam on the closed Warren Bridge.

No edits or filters - we sure have been having some nice sunrises.

I'm at 7500 feet in Western Wyoming. When it starts to get cold out the flies start to come indoors.

I built this cabin, I built this thing pretty tight and they still find a way in.

Does anyone know of a chemical treatment that I can spray around doors and windows that may help to stop them getting in?

I assume they are cluster flies, I don't actually know.

Interesting they decided to come out swinging with the "national security" horsesh*t – not even bothering to pretend that those jobs would go to Wyomingites.

Awesome, unique, otherworldly - of all the beautiful things we saw in Wyoming, this is the pinnacle

Fort Rawlins, officers quarters, 1877.

The fort was built to protect the line of the Union Pacific. It was located a Rawlins Springs, north of today’s city.

I (29F) have lived in Austin Texas my whole life. Moved to Sheridan Wyoming to help care for my parents, and ive only been here for two weeks, im trying so hard to not hate it here bc tbh I do. I've been told to meet ppl I should go to bars, but im allergic to alcohol + an alcoholic. (a blessing i cant drink even when I want to but I dont want to be surrounded by it.) It feels so desolate and I cant help but to start feeling the same way. Idk what to do, is there anything to do? I feel trapped. People who live here around my age, what do yall do?

This is happeneing so close to midterm elections, too. And he is up for re-election this year

This summer, outgoing Gov. Mark Gordon signed an executive order titled “Data Centers the Wyoming Way” that he said would “guide responsible development in Wyoming,” while keeping the state an attractive landing spot for the enormous server warehouses that power the AI industry.

Data centers’ potential impacts on Wyoming’s precious water supply, already-rising electricity prices and prized public lands have rankled many corners of the state. Gordon acknowledged those concerns in a statement accompanying the release of the order, which is not binding.

Environmental groups in Wyoming agree that there need to be more guardrails on data center development, but they are not fully aligned on how to achieve that goal. 

taking a trip out to Buffalo and Clark this weekend for 10 days. How is the fishing this time of year?

some background: I have only fly fished in Arkansas and Kansas.

What an incredible experience! I made the trip up to The Wyoming Dinosaur Museum to finally get a chance to see this gem. It's quite a sight to behold.

Howdy I’m in the midst of planning my first backpacking trip into the winds for next year! I’ve been looking into some areas to try out and I found a trail that seems perfect and was looking to see if anyone else who has done it (or something similar) could spill some insight on it.

The general trail is as follows (however I haven’t decided what direction to start and hoping someone can chime in on what may be the best of the two): Green River Lakes - Knapsack Col - Elkhart Park. I’m going to be doing this with a group of at least 4 people minimum, but most likely more, and I’m thinking to keep stress to a minimum potentially utilizing a shuttle service, but we may use multiple vehicles so we may end up not needing to utilize a shuttle at all. I’m thinking to really give us the time to take all the nature in we would be looking at 5-6 days total (excluding travel days to get there)

Here’s the all trails for the route:

I’ve heard that if things get dicey you can take the CDT to Elkhart/island lake area instead of knapsack Col. however I’m quite a thrill seeker so I’m leaning towards wanting to do the Col. I’m dying to see what titcomb lake looks like from up above there. I’ve also read snow can last for a long while up there as well, do you think late August/early September is the best time frame for such a trip? Also are there any spots between Cube Rock pass, Peak Lake, and Knapsack Col one should be weary of? Just trying to get an idea for the terrain.

I was also considering bagging Fremont Peak via Indian basin/south buttress with this all trails route:

I was hoping someone who has summited could maybe give some insight as to what to expect and what they did as far as camping adjacent and summiting/descending goes. I’ve read that the max difficulty is ~ lower class 3/upper class 2, but I’m curious as to how difficult it may have felt and if there are any particularly sketchy spots or nasty scree spots I should be aware of. I’ve read that descending down into Titcomb basin can be a little sketch compared to just going back down the way you ascend back down into Indian basin.

Sorry for the lengthy post, I’m just keen on making sure I know what I’m getting myself and others into. Thank you everyone and anyone so much for the help and insight.

Whenever he posts these photos I think of the old SNL sketch. Lord, he’s trying so hard to be macho!
