Wyoming
has everything from open grasslands to the spectacular scenery of the
Grand Tetons
and Yellowstone
National Park. Visit the Shoshone National Forest or the
Eastern Great Plains. No matter where you go, this large state is
beautiful and breathtaking.
In addition to Wyoming's
beautiful scenery, the state gives you a broad opportunity to explore
history dating back to prehistoric roaming tribes almost 12,000 years
ago. From the nomadic Indians to the days of the
Old
West, Wyoming
provides an rich experience of scenic trails, military forts, and a
number of
ghost towns that dot the landscape.
Travel the path of historic miners,
cowboys and frontier pioneers as you explore the state's natural
wonders, view its abundant wildlife, and visit its many national forest
and state parks.
Enjoy your travels in Wyoming
and welcome to the Legends of the Cowboy State.

 A
bison on a blue field bordered in white and red. The state seal branded on
the bison. The woman represents the state motto "Equal Rights" and the two
men represent cattle ranchers and miners. The words "Livestock", "Mines",
"Grains" and "Oil" represent
Wyoming's
wealth. The eagle and shield show support for the United States. The dates
1869 and 1890 tell when
Wyoming
organized as a territory of the United States and when it became a state.
