I am from Macedonia (small country in Europe) and as a student I worked in Yellowstone National Park in 2012 and 2013 and I was in Jackson Hole and Cody every day that I had off I went to see the rodeo there. I have been all over Europe and the US and not a single place was as special as Wyoming. It will be my desired home until my last days. It just took my heart! Big love to all the Americans from a guy who fell in love with your culture and way of life.
I've made numerous trips to Macedonia, staying in Skopje. I always had a lovely time. Your people are also very kind and friendly and welcoming. And your country is very beautiful.
Well... I think we owe Macedonia a GREAT debt of gratitude as well. A few more than critically important people came from your neck of the woods once upon a time. I don't think there'd be an America with them or people like you. It wouldn't be what it is without my grandparents coming here from Calabria and Ireland respectfully either. I just wish more people could see past our warts as you have. For that, we are very thankful. Thank you! Very Much!
@@Mark_van_Leeuwenstijn your Home is special, and that’s just as, if not more important than your country in my opinion. I love the US and all of her unique landscapes though, you should certainly visit if you get the chance!
In my Dad's later years, I did my best to help him check off many bucket list items. We got 'em all done but one - a visit to Wyoming. He used to hunt deer around Jeffery City and I got to accompany him twice. He so wanted to get back there but it didn't happen. So when he passed in 2012, it only seemed right to spread his ashes in a place where the two of us stood in awe back in 1970 - the magnificent view overlooking the Great Divide Basin from atop Green Mountain. He finally made it back.
@@Tokyo-go2du what do you mean? He literally dumped his ashes in to the dirt.. and flowers, and trees, everywhere on the Earth. So... Technically, he is "going back to the Earth.
thank you from a great grandmother, 80 years old, in the beautiful state of Montana. Been here over 50 years and love it. Glad you love Wyoming. Montana is similar, and you would love it here too.
I’m a 5th generation Montana gal here, my dad followed his dad into the Union Pacific Railroad work so that meant my Highschool sweetheart parents had to move to Green River, I’m not sure if they ever got a hospital or not but I was born in Rock Springs in 1981. Sure enough they divorced right after my birth & I was forced to be w/ my fathers bright & shiney new family, where they all called me podunky girl. Broken people raising children when they feel like it creates a lot of trauma, so I get nauseous when I think of Sweetwater county, but this documentary helped me appreciate the state a little more Although I can’t foresee myself ever stepping foot back there with so many family issues. But glad to see a fellow Montana lover. 80 yrs young when you posted, hope this message finds you & yours doing well! ♾☮️
I met a man in Elk River Idaho. He was tending our campground over there on the honeymoon. We're both a fan of shotguns and I asked him, I said Larry, which state in the union will be the last to fall? Larry thought for a second and replied "Wyoming. They still shoot people there" 😶🤫
I'm in the UK and this documentary popped up in my UA-cam page and as I was resting from a morning on the allotment I chose it to relax. Not disappointed. Really, really interesting. What a big place. Thanks.
Hi from England and thanks for the beautiful video. Takes me back to '77 when I hitch hiked round the states for 6 months - including Wyoming, which is as amazing as you have shown here.
I grew up in South Florida my whole life and moved to Wyoming in my 30's. Such a change. So nice to be away from the big city , traffic , bad air. It's peaceful and feels so safe here.
I live in Central FL and see myself as a city slicker, but Wyoming’s natural beauty has been calling me for over a year. I want to visit there very soon.
Where in Wyoming bro?...Please explain. Im tryn to leave Cali and cant get a bead on where to go..Im a writer{ published} and need to find a place to write away from S Cal madness
I ADORE Wyoming. I grew up in Georgia, in 1978 I went on vacation with a friend and her family, where we flew to Casper, and rented a bus to take us to Togwotee Lodge for snowmobiling, near Moran Pass and then to Jackson Hole. I was HOOKED. I went back out there to attend and graduate from the University of Wyoming!! Haven’t been back in so long and I miss it!!
I am in Australia and coming from a land that is basically flat, the mountains in this part of the USA to me are like a cathedral of beauty. One day, befoe I die, I hope to visit this wonderful area.
This US Citizen went to Australia to explore caves. As you weren't in them under the Blue Mountains or while walking with sharks in the coastal caverns. What you could do is keep up with me in pub crawls . The King's Cross District again after sunset. Just keep an eye open for me if walking into outback caves. Start a USA adventure where your sun never shines.
As a native Montanan, for 71 years, I've held Wyoming very dear. I've always enjoyed the solitude I've found here in Montana well guarded by Wyoming and the Dakotas to the east. A most beautiful place, Wyoming, too.
Wyoming is a state of absolute beauty. I use to be a long haul truck driver and must have been to Wyoming 100s of time. The elevation display on my GPS was always showing 8000 feet and above. It's cold. It snows a lot during snow season. It is very very very quiet. The classic song Home On The Range always crossed my mind. Wyoming is a gorgeous state of tranquility, fascination, and absolute beauty!
Thanks for this lovely story of Wyoming. You brought tears to my eyes in several sections. Appreciation of the wilds of America is an important and special part of America that unfortunately most people never see.
This video is incredible! I love the arial footage showing the beautiful Wyoming scenery. The narrators voice is enthusiastic yet authentic and soothing. I can't wait to visit Wyoming. Very well done and thank you!
I very much enjoyed watching & learning the history of Wyoming; thank you very much. I would like to add that Pete Simpson, the narrator, has a very comforting & relaxing voice!
It has been almost 60 years since I set foot in this beautiful state and as a kid of 6, it has stuck in my mind ever since. Should make a trip before I can't to this beautiful place! Thanks for posting a great video!
Hi from the UK. Well done WyomingPBS for a really lovely video. If I manage to get my plan of a good long trip to the US sorted, I will make time to see some of your fantastic landscape. Living in a city (London) can sometimes dislocate you from the scale and wonder of the natural world. So much to see out there - thanks.
I really don't understand how people can dislike videos like this. Im an Aussie and the scenery, the people look fantastic. Well presented and informative and just enjoyable to watch!
Well, a lot of Americans dislike the idea of tax money being used for the public benefit which PBS represents. Go figure. The same bunch of people also are increasingly suspicious of education, which again PBS does.
A beautiful introduction to the State of Wyoming. I have heard much about this State mentioned in history, films, stories, but actually never knew anything about the beautiful nature, and the peoples’ living there now. I live in Queensland, Australia at the moment, and traveling to Wyoming via the Internet is amazing. Thank you. Stay Safe.
That was a REALLY well done exploration of Wyoming. Wow. I've been to Yellowstone numerous times, up through Denver. You can tell when you hit Wyoming. It feels, wild. Thank you for this presentation.
I've been to the corners of this magnificent country that I was blessed to be born in. And although every place is special in it's own way, I don't think I've been anywhere as scenic and awe-inspiring as Wyoming; it truly is the best kept secret of America and a place that EVERY American should be proud of. Keep the cities, THIS is where God shows off. If you can't find Him here, you won't find Him anywhere. Go HERE and you'll keep going back to see more and more, and forever talk about what you saw before. If natural beauty and wildlife are your thing, then Wyoming is your place.
Beautiful documenty ❤️ I am from India. Fell in love with Wyoming once again! While I was in USA I Once drove through Wyoming while going from Texas to Oregon. In Wyoming in saw very few people except those driving. And the terrain was no less fascinating than rest of the USA. I remember seeing groups of horses just running wild and enjoying the wind. Thanks for making the documentry.👍
I enjoyed this immensely. What a splendid introduction to Wyoming. My brother has visited the Thermopolis area a few times and the images he has shared have been amazing. Perhaps one day, I'll have the pleasure to journey around Wyoming.
Went to Wyoming for the 1st time last year. Drove through Yellowstone and camped out by Devil's Tower. I fell in love with the state. Going back in a few weeks to spend more time in Yellowstone. It's pure beauty!!
Mrs H.H. I’ve been privileged to visit Wyoming three times. Seen Yellowstone, Devils Tower, and an original Pony Express station. I’ve walked in the ruts made by the many wagon wheels of pioneers heading west. I’ve twice seen many of the names carved on Register Cliff. The last time we were there a flock of wild turkeys flew off the cliff right over our heads! What a sight! Been privileged to see many of the beautiful places in this country, from Key West to the northern lighthouse in Maine. Seen the Grand Canyon. (My 15 year old daughter cried when she saw it.) Been to Yosemite, Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks.. The giant Sequoia trees took our breath away. I became a tree hugger that trip! Seen the “Black Hills of Dakota”. I’ve been to Zion National Park and a couple of more in Utah. Visited a ghost mining town and road a train in Durango, Colorado. Drove on much of Route 66.......There’s so much beauty out there to see. When the pandemic is over, we’re ready to head out again for more adventures! Stay safe everyone.
Love this. Likewise we rode the train from Silverton to Durango. We have a beautiful country in front of us. But rather than staying "safe", I'd encourage my brethren to stay "free" 👍🏼
Thank you so much, WyomingPBS!! I have been to Wyoming twice, just travelling through. I took a bus across much of the state, after leaving the Black HIlls of South Dakota. It was magical seeing the pronghorn antelope running at dawn, Devil's Tower in the distance, and winding up at Yellowstone, at which I spent almost a week exploring every part of it that I could. I fell in love with the state itself, and vowed to one day return. I haven't yet done that, but it has been a "magnet for the soul" to see it yet one more time in this lifetime. I can't recommend enough to see it at least once in your life!! It is an incredible place:-)
Wow, i´m from Portugal and i must say, what a beautiful and gracious state you got there ! I´m fascinated by the land, such a beautiful place, what a paradise
Been in Wyoming many many time in 4years in the summer time..my favorite place on Earth..been there all over the place and it awesome 👍 Thank you for this wonderful video..It always remind me the beauty of the my stay..🥰🥰🥰
Absolutely! And don't forgo connection with the various "Tribes" of the area that consider the beautiful features of the State as "sacred". I would encourage you to rent an RV; take your children; and let them sit at the proverbial feet of the various care-takers of Native History Museums along the way. There is something truly magical that happens when impressionable and open young minds interact with the TRUE History of an area . . . rather than just the "native studies" version of it in so-called public education.
First visited Wyoming from the UK as a family in 1993, driving 4,000 miles west from Mt Rushmore SD, eventually to LA. My late wife and I loved Wyoming, and the Big Horn Mtns especially. Fabulous state, WY. Thanks for a superb film.
Wyoming - hated it on arrival from the big city, cried when we had to leave. Never got better for me than riding bareback out on the prairie, and trout fishing. Wish I was there.
Absolutely brilliant, I've been to the USA 6 times and love Wyoming the best, been to many of the town and cities in the video and its just make me want to go back again and again. Im from Australia
On your next visit, do not miss: Death Valley and Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park. Sequoia is like no other place in the Solar System. The trees were around when the Pyramids were being built. I can't describe it, but you'll know when you get there. It's not crowded, everyone goes to Yosemite.
As an Aussie that's traveled the entire USA places like Utah and Wyoming were unpretentious diamonds. Trust me, once you land at LA just keep going. These are the best parts of the USA and it's not only the landscape it's the people.
100% agree. So much that wife and I are moving there from Tucson AZ. I’ve been researching states for well over a year. Wyoming hands down for us. Visited late September. I’m back in Tucson and homesick for Wyoming counting the days until we move. Felt like I was home. I love everything about it - even the cold. Freedom, natural beauty, enormous wide open spaces, the people, etc..... :) Edit: Except Liz Cheney. No love for her.
Hope you made it to the Smoky Mountain National Park, it’s beautiful, has elk, black bears, deer and all the little animals and the most flora of any place in America. It is beautiful and the gem there is Cades Cove. Do yourself a favor and go there if you missed it. Yellowstone and the Great Smoky Mountain’s National Parks are my favorite.
Pun intended it is the lower leg of a Titan. Barried below is the foot. Within the foot an awesome huge gold vein. Octagon columns are the tendons straps. DNA testing of the rock will prove its DNA of human. Compare with biology diagrams of lower leg interior components.
Took pics of my cousin there last time we got to see him healthy when we got back to Powell found out he had lymphoma he was gone 9 months later. Miss him every day
My first trip to Wyoming was to the Black Hills National Forest for deer hunting. My buddy tried to get me out there for years before I finally agreed to a "once in a liftime" hunting trip, spending $375 on a non resident tag and the grueling 20hr road trip, not to mention hunting and camping in the brutal mountain conditions. That "once in a lifetime " trip has now become an annual event and will be until I can no longer hunt. This place is magical.
One of the most wonderfull places on Earth! 2019 I lost my hearth in Alaska, but I hope, one day I can see this wonderfull natur in Wyoming too. Kind regards to the filmmakers from Germany. Attila
You didn't see the whole state then. Wyoming is a hell hole of nothingness, The people are the rudest harshest and most selfish too. The entire state is home to many Luciferians as well. That is one reason I left. That state is a devil for sure.
Sonny for future reference, your personal experience isn’t absolute. I’ve experienced the exact opposite while in Wyoming, it’s best you judge people individually
@@felixthecat777333 I have been to Wyoming multiple times, I am from Minnesota mean, you must of been inn another state and thought it was Wyoming the nicest people i have ever met are from Wyoming. Sonny you want to meet mean people go to north Minneapolis Minnesota.
I don't know how it took two years for me to find this excellent video. My daughter was raised in Lincoln, NE and when it was time to look at colleges she wanted to visit Wyoming. I was very surprised, but we went and visited the University. I never got her back. She went on to law school in Laramie and married a native of Thermopolis and now has a family and thriving law practice in Cheyenne. Her love for Wyoming is contagious and I am grateful that I have come to know this amazing place.
I first visited Wyoming twenty years ago to hunt mule deer near the little Greys River.I fell in love with the state and hunt there most years. If I could just talk me wife into living there...
This was a beautiful presentation. I was transfixed throughout the video. I had the pleasure of visiting parts of Wyoming on a road trip back in 2016, my one and only visit there. We entered from Colorado to Cheyenne, and then eventually up into Yellowstone. As an easterner, I was so thankful to be able to drive throughout the Rocky Mountain states. I will never forget that trip.
SARAI Dawta of ISRAEL yes most did go on peace,do not believe the propaganda of the know nothing malcontents. Peace is what most strive for, but there is always the greedy and trouble makers , they make the noise.
Great video. Love driving through the American west, where there is still a sense of the past, wide open spaces and the beauty of nature, free from the grossly overpopulated areas of urban decay, crime, and pollution.
I'm Canadian born and raised on Vancouver Island I didn't know much of Wyoming but I do now thanks to this video. What a beautiful place I am definitely going to go there one day soon. .
I lived in Seattle 10 years,made a couple trips to Victoria by water.If Victoria was in USA would have moved there after my first visit.that said Wyoming is a very beautiful place to visit.
@@johnperic6860 lol Apparently you don't know the difference between Vancouver and Vancouver Island It's like night and day. John Im an Islander and that means a great big difference you won't be getting Vancouver ideologies from me I don't even like the place. Cheers
WOW! What a great video. I enjoyed reminiscing some of my times spent in this beautiful state. i never fail to marvel at the wide open vistas of this beautiful country.
I love Wyoming. Lived in Green River, Rock Springs area of 13 years. Since moved away I have been unable to go back. This video was like a mini vacation. I did not disappoint me. ❤️🧡💛
Same here! Born in Evanston but grew up a little bit in Green River. Since then I’ve been all over, primarily in Florida. Once I get out of the Navy I’m definitely heading back there for a little bit haha.
Lovely,beautiful country ,Wyoming ,what a great State ,and really beautifully illustrated.God Bless all who visit there. Very nice story told.And many more beautiful ones to be attributed to a beautiful,place to be and livi in.
Originally I’m from Slovakia (Eastern Europe) Now I live in New Jersey for 20 years. I have never been in Western part of US but watching these videos I think that Wyoming, Montana and surrounding states have the most beautiful landscape from all the lower 48 states. Wish one day I can visit.
I have lived my whole live here in casper Wyoming My family come to this state before it was a state and settled here and started ranches that still stand to this day and Things that came over on covered wagons
Gosh, not too many folks can say that...able to trace your family back a couple hundred years and live with all your family history. I'm envious! God bless you and your great family.
Hi Wyoming from Mount Martha in Victoria, Australia. The amazing UA-cam algorithm brought this video to my attention, and , out of curiosity I thought I would have a quick look. An hour later and I am very grateful for the opportunity to learn a little about the history, geography and geology of this amazing place. Thank you Wyoming Public Broadcasting Service. Australia is quite a large continent, and my wife and I have just yesterday returned from a month's journey to Darwin in our Northern Territory. Our journey included a train trip of over 2797 km from Adelaide (1846 miles) and back again on the Ghan Train. That was 5594 km (3692 miles) Whilst we have some impressive mountain ranges, they are totally different from what I have just seen in Wyoming. Most of the countryside we travelled through was the endless desert of Central Australia, but the north also has beautiful, rugged and timeless wilderness (for example the Kakadu National Park covering almost 20,000 square kilometres or 7722 square miles) twice the size of Yellowstone National Park. I guess you could say that we also have an interesting rock (not igneous rock like your Devil's Tower, but a sandstone monolith that rises 863 metres, 2831 feet, above the surrounding desert known as Uluru) Your video has inspired me to follow up on the many aspects of Wyoming covered in this excellent presentation, as well as the fascinating history.
I went to Wyoming in 1988 with my dad when I was 6. I hope to take my kids. The memories at Yellowstone, Flaming Gorge, and Devils Tower are unforgettable
Thank you for the great video.The best one we have watched on Wyoming ever. It‘s a great inspiration to visit you state again. We have visited your state in 2014 and 2016 and looking forward to visit your GREAT state in 2023 again.
Never hesitate to seek out the Native Tribes of the area to visit their various museums and grace their businesses. I found them so very hospitable and welcoming, as well as a store-house of local information and lore -- a priceless asset to both the photographer and serious explorer of History and Truth. They can point you to all of the best hidden treasures in an area and of course, they depend greatly upon your tourist dollars in exchange. Plus there is a genuine feeling that your exposing yourself to their History througth their eyes . . . in some way "blesses" them beyond just fiscal concerns. (though it does that also!) It's like you carry a piece of their History and experience with you for the rest of your days; provided you are humble enough to be open to such things. It's a really beautiful experience if you can allow it to happen. Respect the "First Nations" and it will reap dividends for you and your children. Kids with the proper parental incentive, are particularly engaged with the Historically accurate stories of the area. (Something they will likely not find in classic public education). I would highly recommend traveling in the early Autumn: before Yellowstone closes but when you still might be graced with an early snowfall in the Wind River Canyon. The early dusting of snow set against the still-flowing deep-azure river makes for a startling photographic composition.
Back in 73 my brother and I rode into Wyoming on a Greyhound. Coming from a small town in Pa. and after seeing all the cities and towns in between, just the mass population, once we got clear of Denver it was like we entered Heaven with all the wide open space. Simply fabulous!
@@GraceEngineering lol, yes.. I've been there in the summer time, and it's absolutely gorgeous! I was there in July, and the temp. Never got over 70's, No mosquitoes or green heads, (there's a crap ton of those where I live!) The people who live there are extremely friendly! I was lucky enough to be able to go on a stage coach ride, and it was my Birthday (I was 14) The guy driving the coach, found out and instead of riding inside with all the other tourist, I got to ride up top with him! (It was just me, I think it wasn't a usual thing) At first, it was very scary, because to my surprise, there were no "seat belts" and it was very high up! I also went to Helena, and it was soo beautiful! There a big mountain there called "The sleeping giant mountain" and really looked like a sleeping giant, lol! I'm on the east coast and live by the Ocean, it's beautiful here, but my ❤️ belongs to "the west"! I bought a big bumper sticker that I still have, that says "I miss Montana, and I wanna go baaaaaa-ck (with a bunch of little cartoon sheep whom are all crying, lol)
@@owlthepirate5997 we all wanna go back buddy. If your heart doesn't yearn for the west then you don't have a heart period. When are we gonna wake up and just leave the east coast for a better life out west? Hard to say. Wife and I also live in the east coast but we're counting our days at this point. NJ is no home for those with wanderlust.
Hello from Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Really enjoyed watching this video, and having this urge "to visit Wyoming one day". But at this age (60) and the way things are in the world right now, this will likely remain yet another daydream. For now, will just have to be content watching videos like this.
I have visited the USA many times. NYC and colorado and Utah. I love the history in USA I am enchanted with its beauty and diversity. Salt lakes are amazing. I'm envious . I'm Irish.
marcia bettger And it does, you should see it, God's country. But that describes so many places in our great country! Or World, shall we say, don't want to say the US has a corner on beauty!
I left a little of my heart in Wyoming while passing through in Jan on i25 from I-80 to I-90. I loved every minute of the road journey and the people i met from rodeo cowboys in gas stations and waitresses in diners, thankyou for such warm welcomes xoxox
My husband and I live Alaska and we drive every year to New Mexico and we drive through Wyoming just for the beauty. What a magnificent view we get. Enjoy life as you like.
Hi Brenda, I am also from Alaska. Have you had a chance to read John McPhee's Annals of a Former World? Explains a tremendous amount about Wyoming geology and the elements that formed it. I highly recommend it. So does the website WyoGeo. Helped me enjoy even more all of the beautiful drives. Let me know.
Agree. But not all places in Wyoming now have that from our species. Most obtain names when found. I dig down past glacier laid rocky soil to find my unexplored areas. In karst. Which is not uncommon about Wyoming. It can be located by foot from Laramie. I qualified to join Wyoming organized caving after assisting 10 miles of underground cartography in Montana. Doing 12 hour days where the sun never shines. During a week with tent camping. I entered place names in my survey data pages. Now found on exploration maps.
WOW what a beautiful place, I discovered this video by chance and sat enthralled by the vistas. Never been to the USA but if I ever get the chance I would definitely want to see Wyoming!
Astoundingly beautiful! My Father was born in Casper? In a log cabin at 60 degrees below zero! I hope to see Wyoming someday; I want to see my Father's home state. Thank you, this was fascinating❣
Wyoming is beautiful, the whole state is like a national park. I lived there 10 years. The only drawback is the cold winters, and the wind. It gets rough, and the temperature drops below minus 30 degrees Fahrenheit routinely. Better be prepared.
@@scarhart53 more like Libertarians - treat me well, I'll treat you well kind of people. What's so bad about that? Open your mind. Conservative values make for a harmonious and caring society in general.
it's good to see that your country is abundant of nature and wilderness, i am a filipino and i love your culture and a way of life, is so natural and the beauty it is.
I was born and raised in wyoming,and have lived here all my life.l feel blessed for this.
I am from Macedonia (small country in Europe) and as a student I worked in Yellowstone National Park in 2012 and 2013 and I was in Jackson Hole and Cody every day that I had off I went to see the rodeo there. I have been all over Europe and the US and not a single place was as special as Wyoming. It will be my desired home until my last days. It just took my heart! Big love to all the Americans from a guy who fell in love with your culture and way of life.
Wyoming and the way up to Seattle and down the coast into northern California is incredible
Very nice man. I am from Colorado, state right below Wyoming. I visited Macedonia in 2018. It is a great country!
@leonardimas1 our perceptions can either give us love from our Father our we can relish in the lusts of satan. Sorry you chose incorrectly
I've made numerous trips to Macedonia, staying in Skopje. I always had a lovely time. Your people are also very kind and friendly and welcoming. And your country is very beautiful.
Well... I think we owe Macedonia a GREAT debt of gratitude as well. A few more than critically important people came from your neck of the woods once upon a time. I don't think there'd be an America with them or people like you. It wouldn't be what it is without my grandparents coming here from Calabria and Ireland respectfully either. I just wish more people could see past our warts as you have. For that, we are very thankful. Thank you! Very Much!
I am from Holland. It's even hard to comprehend the vastness and beauty of this place in earth! Wow! 😍
Jup je hebt helemaal gelijk. Daarbij is ons landje mooi, maar niet echt bijzonder
Go for a visit. People in Wyoming are pleasant.
It is beautiful until you have to live in the e middle of nowhere for years. Lots of freedom but if you are a social person it can get real lonely.
@@Mark_van_Leeuwenstijn your Home is special, and that’s just as, if not more important than your country in my opinion. I love the US and all of her unique landscapes though, you should certainly visit if you get the chance!

I met a man in Elk River Idaho. He was tending our campground over there on the honeymoon. We're both a fan of shotguns and I asked him, I said Larry, which state in the union will be the last to fall? Larry thought for a second and replied "Wyoming. They still shoot people there" 😶🤫
I'm in the UK and this documentary popped up in my UA-cam page and as I was resting from a morning on the allotment I chose it to relax. Not disappointed. Really, really interesting. What a big place. Thanks.
You're always welcome here if you're feeling peckish for adventure 😃 come on by
It's so lovely when narrators are actually passionate about the thing they are talking about. Really nice and calming docu
I too was struck by the narrator right from the start. What a gem! I am totally with you on this one 👴🏼
Hard to not be passionate about Wyoming 🤷

I was HOOKED. I went back out there to attend and graduate from the University of Wyoming!! Haven’t been back in so long and I miss it!!

or while walking with sharks in the coastal caverns.
What you could do is keep up with me in pub crawls .
The King's Cross District again after sunset. Just keep
an eye open for me if walking into outback caves.
Start a USA adventure where your sun never shines.
It’s flat in a lot of places here too, but it IS beautiful. I live in the mountains, and I’d love to see Australia!
Google Pacific Northwest.
I'm from the eastern USA and it isn't as flat as Australia but I gotta say that I want to go to Wyoming and never leave.
Better hurry up before they declare the forever lasting lock down , quarantine ,martial law or something similar .
I’m from Brazil and currently living in Europe. Wyoming was never in my search but I loved this video. Thank you, amazing country.
As a native Montanan, for 71 years, I've held Wyoming very dear. I've always enjoyed the solitude I've found here in Montana well guarded by Wyoming and the Dakotas to the east. A most beautiful place, Wyoming, too.
Idaho: "hey what about me man...... am I a joke to u???"
Did you ever once stand back from a far and look at devils tower and see the obvious of what devil's tower really is .it's a tree a petrified tree
I agree. In Montana over 50 years. A glorious neighbor to Wyoming.
@@gchammertime1557 joke do you feel like a joke?
@@jamessmoot2057 ...Or it cd be the petrified lower extremity of an antedilu- vian nephilim???
I love visiting Wyoming. My dad was raised on a ranch outside of Laramie.
He's gone now and i miss him.......
What an excellent and beautiful travelogue. Excellent narration too. Brought a tear to this Aussie's eye.
Hope your fire season is light this year. Good luck.
You're always welcome here, buddy. Come on out, we'll leave the light on for ya
Wyoming is one of those states that is so beautifully unique, it seems like an entirely separate country
It's really nice living there, plus you can get really good deals here!
@@talongrau1823 I've lived here my whole life and it is the most wonderful state I have ever been to.
Wyoming is a state of absolute beauty. I use to be a long haul truck driver and must have been to Wyoming 100s of time. The elevation display on my GPS was always showing 8000 feet and above. It's cold. It snows a lot during snow season. It is very very very quiet. The classic song Home On The Range always crossed my mind. Wyoming is a gorgeous state of tranquility, fascination, and absolute beauty!
Wyoming is a state from hell
O
Wasn’t that Roy Rogers and his doggie Bullet?
Sonny Why you say that?
Ruth Morales Beautiful face - Ruth. You could have at least said “Hi”..
Love this presentation, the cinematography, the narrators, interesting and informative, such a pleasure. 👍🏻🇷🇴🇬🇧
Yeah, very educational and entertaining...After watching it(from Japan) I lfeel like visiting, and who knows, moving to Wyoming.
You're both welcome here. Come on out for a visit. We love you 💜
Thanks for this lovely story of Wyoming. You brought tears to my eyes in several sections. Appreciation of the wilds of America is an important and special part of America that unfortunately most people never see.
My God! This is a breathtaking video, so beautiful from beginning to end, and completely in love with the stories narrated by Pete Simpson. Awesome!
This video is incredible! I love the arial footage showing the beautiful Wyoming scenery. The narrators voice is enthusiastic yet authentic and soothing. I can't wait to visit Wyoming. Very well done and thank you!
I hiked the Winds with a buddy 15 years straight. The Winds have given me the most powerful memories of my life. They are indeed sacred to me.
🌬🤍
🙏🏼
The winds are the hidden gem of Wyoming in my opinion
I very much enjoyed watching & learning the history of Wyoming; thank you very much. I would like to add that Pete Simpson, the narrator, has a very comforting & relaxing voice!
Awesome narrative
His voice is perfect for westerns.
It has been almost 60 years since I set foot in this beautiful state and as a kid of 6, it has stuck in my mind ever since. Should make a trip before I can't to this beautiful place! Thanks for posting a great video!
Do it Michael! Before it's too late! Godspeed my friend!
I cant help myself but continually watch this beautiful, educational program. Such contrast from Adelaide South Australia. Thank you.
You're welcome here. Why don't ya come on by and bring your family. We have our arms open
Hi from the UK. Well done WyomingPBS for a really lovely video. If I manage to get my plan of a good long trip to the US sorted, I will make time to see some of your fantastic landscape. Living in a city (London) can sometimes dislocate you from the scale and wonder of the natural world. So much to see out there - thanks.
I really don't understand how people can dislike videos like this. Im an Aussie and the scenery, the people look fantastic. Well presented and informative and just enjoyable to watch!
Well, a lot of Americans dislike the idea of tax money being used for the public benefit which PBS represents. Go figure. The same bunch of people also are increasingly suspicious of education, which again PBS does.
The people only like to eat and sleep don't like this video
A beautiful introduction to the State of Wyoming. I have heard much about this State mentioned in history, films, stories, but actually never knew anything about the beautiful nature, and the peoples’ living there now. I live in Queensland, Australia at the moment, and traveling to Wyoming via the Internet is amazing. Thank you. Stay Safe.
That was a REALLY well done exploration of Wyoming. Wow. I've been to Yellowstone numerous times, up through Denver. You can tell when you hit Wyoming. It feels, wild. Thank you for this presentation.
I know right, you can actually smell it in the air. Great place. All of WY citizens are stewards of the land.
I've been to the corners of this magnificent country that I was blessed to be born in. And although every place is special in it's own way, I don't think I've been anywhere as scenic and awe-inspiring as Wyoming; it truly is the best kept secret of America and a place that EVERY American should be proud of. Keep the cities, THIS is where God shows off. If you can't find Him here, you won't find Him anywhere. Go HERE and you'll keep going back to see more and more, and forever talk about what you saw before. If natural beauty and wildlife are your thing, then Wyoming is your place.
Beautiful documenty ❤️ I am from India. Fell in love with Wyoming once again! While I was in USA I Once drove through Wyoming while going from Texas to Oregon. In Wyoming in saw very few people except those driving. And the terrain was no less fascinating than rest of the USA. I remember seeing groups of horses just running wild and enjoying the wind. Thanks for making the documentry.👍
It does look nice!
I enjoyed this immensely. What a splendid introduction to Wyoming. My brother has visited the Thermopolis area a few times and the images he has shared have been amazing. Perhaps one day, I'll have the pleasure to journey around Wyoming.
Went to Wyoming for the 1st time last year. Drove through Yellowstone and camped out by Devil's Tower. I fell in love with the state. Going back in a few weeks to spend more time in Yellowstone. It's pure beauty!!
Yes! Cheers 🥂
Mrs H.H. I’ve been privileged to visit Wyoming three times. Seen Yellowstone, Devils Tower, and an original Pony Express station. I’ve walked in the ruts made by the many wagon wheels of pioneers heading west. I’ve twice seen many of the names carved on Register Cliff. The last time we were there a flock of wild turkeys flew off the cliff right over our heads! What a sight! Been privileged to see many of the beautiful places in this country, from Key West to the northern lighthouse in Maine. Seen the Grand Canyon. (My 15 year old daughter cried when she saw it.) Been to Yosemite, Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks.. The giant Sequoia trees took our breath away. I became a tree hugger that trip! Seen the “Black Hills of Dakota”. I’ve been to Zion National Park and a couple of more in Utah. Visited a ghost mining town and road a train in Durango, Colorado. Drove on much of Route 66.......There’s so much beauty out there to see. When the pandemic is over, we’re ready to head out again for more adventures! Stay safe everyone.
Love this. Likewise we rode the train from Silverton to Durango. We have a beautiful country in front of us. But rather than staying "safe", I'd encourage my brethren to stay "free" 👍🏼
Thank you so much, WyomingPBS!! I have been to Wyoming twice, just travelling through. I took a bus across much of the state, after leaving the Black HIlls of South Dakota. It was magical seeing the pronghorn antelope running at dawn, Devil's Tower in the distance, and winding up at Yellowstone, at which I spent almost a week exploring every part of it that I could. I fell in love with the state itself, and vowed to one day return. I haven't yet done that, but it has been a "magnet for the soul" to see it yet one more time in this lifetime. I can't recommend enough to see it at least once in your life!! It is an incredible place:-)
Yellowstone is great! A week is a good length of time in the Park? Did you go to the Old Faithful Inn?
Quality film-making of the sort we don't see very often any more. Thank you so much for such a great viewing pleasure!
Indeed it feels like a 20 year old documentary but with 2021 quality
Wow, i´m from Portugal and i must say, what a beautiful and gracious state you got there ! I´m fascinated by the land, such a beautiful place, what a paradise
You're welcome here. Come out and enjoy this state with us!
Been in Wyoming many many time in 4years in the summer time..my favorite place on Earth..been there all over the place and it awesome 👍
Thank you for this wonderful video..It always remind me the beauty of the my stay..🥰🥰🥰
A national treasure of our nation. A step back in time and our history. Great video!!!!!!!
Absolutely! And don't forgo connection with the various "Tribes" of the area that consider the beautiful features of the State as "sacred".
I would encourage you to rent an RV; take your children; and let them sit at the proverbial feet of the various care-takers of Native History Museums along the way.
There is something truly magical that happens when impressionable and open young minds interact with the TRUE History of an area . . . rather than just the "native studies" version of it in so-called public education.
First visited Wyoming from the UK as a family in 1993, driving 4,000 miles west from Mt Rushmore SD, eventually to LA. My late wife and I loved Wyoming, and the Big Horn Mtns especially. Fabulous state, WY. Thanks for a superb film.
Wyoming - hated it on arrival from the big city, cried when we had to leave.
Never got better for me than riding bareback out on the prairie, and trout fishing. Wish I was there.
Not a fan of big cities or the way of life. I just left Vegas and it was miserable, endless shopping plazas, liquor stores, gas stations etc.
Absolutely brilliant, I've been to the USA 6 times and love Wyoming the best, been to many of the town and cities in the video and its just make me want to go back again and again. Im from Australia
You're always welcome back, brother
On your next visit, do not miss: Death Valley and Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park. Sequoia is like no other place in the Solar System.
The trees were around when the Pyramids were being built.
I can't describe it, but you'll know when you get there. It's not crowded, everyone goes to Yosemite.
As an Aussie that's traveled the entire USA places like Utah and Wyoming were unpretentious diamonds. Trust me, once you land at LA just keep going. These are the best parts of the USA and it's not only the landscape it's the people.
LOL
As an American, I hold the same view as you.
I met alot of white racists there. Remember Mathew Sheperd? That's all you need to know about this place. I'm definently "Over Wyoming".
100% agree. So much that wife and I are moving there from Tucson AZ. I’ve been researching states for well over a year. Wyoming hands down for us. Visited late September. I’m back in Tucson and homesick for Wyoming counting the days until we move. Felt like I was home. I love everything about it - even the cold. Freedom, natural beauty, enormous wide open spaces, the people, etc..... :)
Edit: Except Liz Cheney. No love for her.
Hope you made it to the Smoky Mountain National Park, it’s beautiful, has elk, black bears, deer and all the little animals and the most flora of any place in America. It is beautiful and the gem there is Cades Cove. Do yourself a favor and go there if you missed it. Yellowstone and the Great Smoky Mountain’s National Parks are my favorite.
Standing at the foot of Devils Tower in Sundance will change you FOREVER!! Did me. Just breathtaking.
Pun intended it is the lower leg of a Titan. Barried below is the foot. Within the foot an awesome huge gold vein.
Octagon columns are the tendons straps. DNA testing of the rock will prove its DNA of human. Compare with biology diagrams of lower leg interior components.
😂your literally standing at the foot!
I seen the blood runoff on the sides!
Took pics of my cousin there last time we got to see him healthy when we got back to Powell found out he had lymphoma he was gone 9 months later. Miss him every day

My first trip to Wyoming was to the Black Hills National Forest for deer hunting. My buddy tried to get me out there for years before I finally agreed to a "once in a liftime" hunting trip, spending $375 on a non resident tag and the grueling 20hr road trip, not to mention hunting and camping in the brutal mountain conditions.
That "once in a lifetime " trip has now become an annual event and will be until I can no longer hunt.
This place is magical.
One of the most wonderfull places on Earth!
2019 I lost my hearth in Alaska, but I hope, one day I can see this wonderfull natur in Wyoming too.
Kind regards to the filmmakers from Germany.

Wyoming - one of the nicest states that I visited while touring the US. Excellent video.
You didn't see the whole state then. Wyoming is a hell hole of nothingness, The people are the rudest harshest and most selfish too. The entire state is home to many Luciferians as well. That is one reason I left. That state is a devil for sure.
I agree, banderanti!
Sonny for future reference, your personal experience isn’t absolute. I’ve experienced the exact opposite while in Wyoming, it’s best you judge people individually
@@felixthecat777333 I have been to Wyoming multiple times, I am from Minnesota mean, you must of been inn another state and thought it was Wyoming the nicest people i have ever met are from Wyoming. Sonny you want to meet mean people go to north Minneapolis Minnesota.
timothy grandahl I believe you meant Little Somalia?
I don't know how it took two years for me to find this excellent video. My daughter was raised in Lincoln, NE and when it was time to look at colleges she wanted to visit Wyoming. I was very surprised, but we went and visited the University. I never got her back. She went on to law school in Laramie and married a native of Thermopolis and now has a family and thriving law practice in Cheyenne. Her love for Wyoming is contagious and I am grateful that I have come to know this amazing place.
I first visited Wyoming twenty years ago to hunt mule deer near the little Greys River.I fell in love with the state and hunt there most years. If I could just talk me wife into living there...
Thank you. It was fun watching the star of India. Memories from my dad taking me for a walk and stopping to see the ship. 9:46 pm today Friday.
Loved our time spent in Wyoming. It was a unforgettable experience.
I am from South Africa and Wyoming looks like an epic place to visit. See you soon :)
This was a beautiful presentation. I was transfixed throughout the video. I had the pleasure of visiting parts of Wyoming on a road trip back in 2016, my one and only visit there. We entered from Colorado to Cheyenne, and then eventually up into Yellowstone. As an easterner, I was so thankful to be able to drive throughout the Rocky Mountain states. I will never forget that trip.
Long live the Wild West from France !
God bless whoever blesses America.

America has Yellowstone Caldera a supervolcano.
So we rock.

Bon jour. Did I spell that right?
Peter Parker thanksGod bless us all inspite of fools who never appreciate anything and would like to enslave all
SARAI Dawta of ISRAEL yes most did go on peace,do not believe the propaganda of the know nothing malcontents. Peace is what most strive for, but there is always the greedy and trouble makers , they make the noise.
Great video. Love driving through the American west, where there is still a sense of the past, wide open spaces and the beauty of nature, free from the grossly overpopulated areas of urban decay, crime, and pollution.
Born and raised in South Western , Kansas.
Now live in Arizona.
Beautiful presentation with all the beauty our Creator gives to lovers of Wyoming.
An excellent documentary...I love Wyoming too.
I'm Canadian born and raised on Vancouver Island I didn't know much of Wyoming but I do now thanks to this video. What a beautiful place I am definitely going to go there one day soon. .
I lived in Seattle 10 years,made a couple trips to Victoria by water.If Victoria was in USA would have moved there after my first visit.that said Wyoming is a very beautiful place to visit.
@@johnperic6860
lol Apparently you don't know the difference between Vancouver and Vancouver Island It's like night and day. John Im an Islander and that means a great big difference you won't be getting Vancouver ideologies from me I don't even like the place. Cheers
Thank you for the video . Love ❤ your part of the earth 🌎
WOW! What a great video. I enjoyed reminiscing some of my times spent in this beautiful state. i never fail to marvel at the wide open vistas of this beautiful country.
I love Wyoming. Lived in Green River, Rock Springs area of 13 years. Since moved away I have been unable to go back. This video was like a mini vacation. I did not disappoint me. ❤️🧡💛
Same here! Born in Evanston but grew up a little bit in Green River. Since then I’ve been all over, primarily in Florida. Once I get out of the Navy I’m definitely heading back there for a little bit haha.
Lovely,beautiful country ,Wyoming ,what a great State ,and really beautifully illustrated.God Bless all who visit there. Very nice story told.And many more beautiful ones to be attributed to a beautiful,place to be and livi in.
Originally I’m from Slovakia (Eastern Europe) Now I live in New Jersey for 20 years. I have never been in Western part of US but watching these videos I think that Wyoming, Montana and surrounding states have the most beautiful landscape from all the lower 48 states. Wish one day I can visit.
I live by South Amboy. Let's get the hell outta here
@@ScarletKnightmare What the hell are you people doing in New Jersey?
Get out of there. Go west. Life is too short.
Idaho says don't forget me
I've never seen Wyoming, besides Yellowstone National Park.
After watching this outstanding documentary I'm feeling like visiting it someday.
The middle of the state is dead flat and unassuming. That's the best part of the state in my opinion 🤷
This was great. I'll always treasure my trip to Wyoming
That was awesome! Great story telling , wonderful scenery.
I have lived my whole live here in casper Wyoming My family come to this state before it was a state and settled here and started ranches that still stand to this day
and Things that came over on covered wagons
Gosh, not too many folks can say that...able to trace your family back a couple hundred years and live with all your family history. I'm envious! God bless you and your great family.
Casper is my favorite city in Wyoming. I lived there for a while in the 1980’s. I loved it!! You are lucky. I love Casper mountain!!
I use to live in Casper to. I loved going up to gravity hill
Life long resident of Casper, what ranch?
I've always loved Wyoming!!! It's the solitude and great beauty I crave, most magnificent!!!!
This video is one of the best I have ever watched which provides adequate information about a state. I feel like I have lived in Wyoming. Thanks.
One of the most amazing and beautiful documentary's I've ever seen, it's easy to see why once visited people don't want to leave. Well done. pat. uk.
Hi Wyoming from Mount Martha in Victoria, Australia. The amazing UA-cam algorithm brought this video to my attention, and , out of curiosity I thought I would have a quick look. An hour later and I am very grateful for the opportunity to learn a little about the history, geography and geology of this amazing place. Thank you Wyoming Public Broadcasting Service. Australia is quite a large continent, and my wife and I have just yesterday returned from a month's journey to Darwin in our Northern Territory. Our journey included a train trip of over 2797 km from Adelaide (1846 miles) and back again on the Ghan Train. That was 5594 km (3692 miles) Whilst we have some impressive mountain ranges, they are totally different from what I have just seen in Wyoming. Most of the countryside we travelled through was the endless desert of Central Australia, but the north also has beautiful, rugged and timeless wilderness (for example the Kakadu National Park covering almost 20,000 square kilometres or 7722 square miles) twice the size of Yellowstone National Park. I guess you could say that we also have an interesting rock (not igneous rock like your Devil's Tower, but a sandstone monolith that rises 863 metres, 2831 feet, above the surrounding desert known as Uluru) Your video has inspired me to follow up on the many aspects of Wyoming covered in this excellent presentation, as well as the fascinating history.
As a Texan who loves Wyoming and tries to return each year, I congratulate you for this excellent work.
As a Texan who hasn`t been to Wyoming yet, i see a lot of similarities of that old rugged western spirit in the land and its people.
I live in rock springs what part do you visit?
Wow most texons think there beter than Wyoming
@@leemaples1806 damn skippy
Another Texan in appreciation of Wyoming. Always watching the horizon .
I went to Wyoming in 1988 with my dad when I was 6. I hope to take my kids. The memories at Yellowstone, Flaming Gorge, and Devils Tower are unforgettable
Thank you for the great video.The best one we have watched on Wyoming ever. It‘s a great inspiration to visit you state again. We have visited your state in 2014 and 2016 and looking forward to visit your GREAT state in 2023 again.
Thank you W.pbs
Love your stuff..we need more like this around the world..it's like traveling through geography and history without leaving your chair
Was married in Sundance WY. My hubby wanted a Wyoming cowgirl. I was an Oregon cowgirl, but for a day I was a WY cowgirl. WY is very beautiful! !
Sorry to hear that
Marriage license says: Moose, WY. I was an Oregonian, Wife from NY. Choose a mid-point. Chapel on the banks of Jackson Lake at the foot of the Tetons.
Never hesitate to seek out the Native Tribes of the area to visit their various museums and grace their businesses. I found them so very hospitable and welcoming, as well as a store-house of local information and lore -- a priceless asset to both the photographer and serious explorer of History and Truth. They can point you to all of the best hidden treasures in an area and of course, they depend greatly upon your tourist dollars in exchange.
Plus there is a genuine feeling that your exposing yourself to their History througth their eyes . . . in some way "blesses" them beyond just fiscal concerns. (though it does that also!)
It's like you carry a piece of their History and experience with you for the rest of your days; provided you are humble enough to be open to such things. It's a really beautiful experience if you can allow it to happen. Respect the "First Nations" and it will reap dividends for you and your children.
Kids with the proper parental incentive, are particularly engaged with the Historically accurate stories of the area. (Something they will likely not find in classic public education).
I would highly recommend traveling in the early Autumn: before Yellowstone closes but when you still might be graced with an early snowfall in the Wind River Canyon. The early dusting of snow set against the still-flowing deep-azure river makes for a startling photographic composition.
Back in 73 my brother and I rode into Wyoming on a Greyhound. Coming from a small town in Pa. and after seeing all the cities and towns in between, just the mass population, once we got clear of Denver it was like we entered Heaven with all the wide open space. Simply fabulous!
Must have been summer.
@@GraceEngineering lol, yes.. I've been there in the summer time, and it's absolutely gorgeous! I was there in July, and the temp. Never got over 70's, No mosquitoes or green heads, (there's a crap ton of those where I live!) The people who live there are extremely friendly! I was lucky enough to be able to go on a stage coach ride, and it was my Birthday (I was 14) The guy driving the coach, found out and instead of riding inside with all the other tourist, I got to ride up top with him! (It was just me, I think it wasn't a usual thing) At first, it was very scary, because to my surprise, there were no "seat belts" and it was very high up! I also went to Helena, and it was soo beautiful! There a big mountain there called "The sleeping giant mountain" and really looked like a sleeping giant, lol! I'm on the east coast and live by the Ocean, it's beautiful here, but my ❤️ belongs to "the west"! I bought a big bumper sticker that I still have, that says "I miss Montana, and I wanna go baaaaaa-ck (with a bunch of little cartoon sheep whom are all crying, lol)
Montana stole the monicker, but Wyoming is certainly big sky country
@@owlthepirate5997 we all wanna go back buddy. If your heart doesn't yearn for the west then you don't have a heart period. When are we gonna wake up and just leave the east coast for a better life out west? Hard to say. Wife and I also live in the east coast but we're counting our days at this point. NJ is no home for those with wanderlust.
Hello from Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Really enjoyed watching this video, and having this urge "to visit Wyoming one day". But at this age (60) and the way things are in the world right now, this will likely remain yet another daydream. For now, will just have to be content watching videos like this.
Father God, I ask that You make a way for Ahmad to find his way to Wyoming for a long visit. Thanks Papa. Remembering Jesus, amen!
I have visited the USA many times. NYC and colorado and Utah. I love the history in USA I am enchanted with its beauty and diversity.
Salt lakes are amazing.
I'm envious .
I'm Irish.
This is a great documentary, interesting info and beautiful cinematography! Thank you for sharing!
This is a very impressive documentary. I love the way you sum up the state where the sky goes on forever.
Could say the same for Texas too.
marcia bettger And it does, you should see it, God's country. But that describes so many places in our great country! Or World, shall we say, don't want to say the US has a corner on beauty!
Wyoming is a beautiful state I've been through there a couple times and I would love to go back again I would definitely give it👍 up
That was a chill, comforting, sleepy, heart warming relaxing documentary. Beautifully shot!
We watch documentaries for the same reason. I slept like a baby with this in the background.
Everytime I watch this I cry like a newborn . Guess I'm a cowboy at heart ♥️
So you can imagine how the original native feel then.
@@tawakemoetahanga6546 YES ! As a matter of fact I'm part Cherokee ( upstate South Carolina ) resovation .
@r33mote She's single now , maybe I should .
So I’m not the only who felt like crying watching this! I’m debating if I wanna go to Wyoming next week
I left a little of my heart in Wyoming while passing through in Jan on i25 from I-80 to I-90. I loved every minute of the road journey and the people i met from rodeo cowboys in gas stations and waitresses in diners, thankyou for such warm welcomes xoxox
Amazing documentary! We really enjoyed it. Thank you, Wyoming PBS!!!
Loved the narrator! Great video!
My husband and I live Alaska and we drive every year to New Mexico and we drive through Wyoming just for the beauty. What a magnificent view we get. Enjoy life as you like.
Hi Brenda, I am also from Alaska. Have you had a chance to read John McPhee's Annals of a Former World? Explains a tremendous amount about Wyoming geology and the elements that formed it. I highly recommend it. So does the website WyoGeo. Helped me enjoy even more all of the beautiful drives. Let me know.
Did Alaska Question?

Thank you for saying the original, traditional names of some of these places. 💛
Agree. But not all places in Wyoming
now have that from our species. Most
obtain names when found. I dig down
past glacier laid rocky soil to find my
unexplored areas. In karst. Which is
not uncommon about Wyoming. It
can be located by foot from Laramie.
I qualified to join Wyoming organized
caving after assisting 10 miles of
underground cartography in Montana.
Doing 12 hour days where the sun
never shines. During a week with
tent camping. I entered place
names in my survey data pages.
Now found on exploration maps.
Great documentary, thank you, and you have a very beautiful state!! And whats best - its HUGE!!!
WOW what a beautiful place, I discovered this video by chance and sat enthralled by the vistas. Never been to the USA but if I ever get the chance I would definitely want to see Wyoming!
Thank you for sharing the beauty of your travels.
Astoundingly beautiful! My Father was born in Casper? In a log cabin at 60 degrees below zero! I hope to see Wyoming someday; I want to see my Father's home state. Thank you, this was fascinating❣
I hope that you get there. This video was an accurate presentation. It's a beautiful place.
Nice little gem of a Documentary! Beautiful Nature!
Greetings from Germany!
Wyoming is beautiful, the whole state is like a national park. I lived there 10 years. The only drawback is the cold winters, and the wind. It gets rough, and the temperature drops below minus 30 degrees Fahrenheit routinely. Better be prepared.
Also, all the Republicans...
@@scarhart53 you support Democrats or Liberals?
When you grow up In Wyoming you get older you just endup whering cote in the winter
lol.thats just hoodie weather for me.
@@scarhart53 more like Libertarians - treat me well, I'll treat you well kind of people. What's so bad about that? Open your mind. Conservative values make for a harmonious and caring society in general.
Wonderful. I appreciate the lingering shots; and the host/narrator is warm charm personified...
it's good to see that your country is abundant of nature and wilderness, i am a filipino and i love your culture and a way of life, is so natural and the beauty it is.
I’ve lived in Wyoming my whole life born an raised. The best place to live personally. Everyone leaves each other alone unless they need help
Truth. Staying out of each others business makes us good neighbors. Always happy to help, and not question why someone needs the help. You just help.
