The magic of Professor Wolters teaching is statements like " You're much more tasty then a chicken sandwich" His words have a gentle way of touching your soul that you can't help but to absorb his message as soon as you tune into his frequency.
@@woltersworld you got to come back out man and check out the southwestern part of the state The Flaming Gorge is amazing in the summer beautiful country some of the best fishing you can find
Raised in Wyoming (live in Oregon now), and this video has made me think that the reason my gas tank rarely goes below 1/4 of a tank is because I grew up in Wyoming.
Remember, if you're going out to hike in bear and mountain lion country, ALWAYS take a buddy with you and make sure your buddy can't run as fast as you can.
Sooooooo,,,the unit we elk hunt in doesn't have any "big" bears, but it is LOADED with mountain lions! Loaded as in bordering on 50% of the bowhunters have an encounter. So at least carry bear spray even if it's not grizzly country. You are NOT the top of the food chain in Wyoming.
In my experience driving through Wyoming, the best advice you provided is to stop for gas whenever you see a station. We drove from southern Utah thorough Wyoming; our destination was the Tetons. By chance, I stopped for gas and filled up in a small town. Thank goodness I did! We drove for hours and never saw a car, a home, a cow...nothing but signs that said “Free range.” Never saw even a chicken but wondered “where would they even come from?” After 6 hours, we saw one gas station that had a small store and bunks and showers in the back. We coasted in on fumes! I was never so happy to see a gas station in my life!

This is great advice. A good friend who lives in Buffalo, Wyoming and travels to DuBois on a regular basis always fills up when he leaves and has a drop tank in his truck. A five gallon gas can in a car is not a bad idea. Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.

Wyoming native , Pinedale resident here. For the love of God, dont get off the plane in Jackson and hit up the first western wear store and buy a cowboy hat / duds. NOTHING screams "stupid tourist" more than that. Go with Carharrt gear and you'll fit right in. Dont drive like a clown on 80 in winter. Please stay tuned to weather forecasts , and if you're a trucker , invest in a CB. We have EPIC wrecks on 80 during winter , all avoidable , all caused by non-natives. Most importantly....... If you're from California , we DO NOT CARE how you do anything back there , or that we should do things like that. That state is a festering dookie hole , we are NOT. Thank you...
The statement of the day "festering dookie hole" got it, lol I actually thought you were going to say if you're from California don't bother coming at all, lol just kidding not all are bad.
Nothing wrong with buying a pair of Levis or Wangler jeans, just stay away from cowboy boots and cheap cowboy hats. As the man said Carharrt stuff is the best, and a good ball cap. Come have fun, spend money and it will all be good.

One more don't: if you're going to Yellowstone (and let's face it you are) there are a lot of little town you will probably need to stop at for supplies, so of these towns only have on grocery store. The employees are underpaid and over worked, and a good amount of them are single parents stretching paychecks. Please don't be rude to them because everything is so expensive, they barely see any of that money as most of it goes to just getting it to the remote locations
Best to just be GRATEFUL the store is even there, buy what you need (or what they HAVE that is almost what you really want) and leave like a civilized person.
And don't get mad if the West Yellowstone clerks have to card you even if you look old enough to be their grandparent. They got slammed with a bunch of fines a few years ago. (And do stop and get food in a town outside Yellowstone, because the Yellowstone food is even more expensive and dire even for national park fare.)
@@hadleyjolley3375 all true! And those small businesses depend on tourism dollars to survive. The more business they do, the more they can expand every facet of their business from hours of operation to item selection.
I'm a lifelong resident of Wy. The gas warnings are absolutely legitimate. Through my 37 years in the Casper area, I have come across 3 out of staters that were blindly following their GPS units and heading into unmaintained roads during our winter season. These roads can go months without any traffic, if you get stuck in snow or mud you may be faced with 20 - 50 mile walks out (With no cell signal) or possibly weeks to months before anyone else drives that road. Those 3 cars were lucky that I was in the area with my winch, shovels, tow straps and shackles to recover their vehicles (all front wheel drive cars) from the snow and mud, (as well as my winter survival preps like, water, food, blankets and satellite communications that I carry in my truck year round). Be very careful about your route, GPS has proven to take unsuspecting drivers down very rural, unmaintained roads with extremely low travel during our bad seasons.
@@avatar19822 It typically comes from the NW, though it can shift at any time. Generally speaking, the western part of the state is more shielded from wind due to the terrain (Rockies, Tetons, etc.), but if you don't like wind it's probably best to avoid places on the open plains or like Laramie, which sits in a wide valley that acts as a sort of natural wind tunnel. Fun fact, Wyomingites are so used to near constant wind that when it drops, the suicide rate spikes.
@@stephendavis8804 Damn. I have lived in Laramie for about 8 years and nobody has said anything about my sexuality. I can't believe there r people who would kill for such a tiny reason
I worked at a gas station just over the border by Rushmore/ Sturgis and I used to love when tourists would ask where the nearest walmart was. They were always so dumbfounded when I told them pick any direction out of town and drive at least an HR and 15 minutes.
Born in Cheyenne and was raised there and in Seattle. Lol weird combo. We just traveled back for a family wedding this summer. My husband’s first time. He got a kick out of the Kum and Go, too. Lol this video was top notch. The number one don’t tell locals what to do made me laugh out loud!!! So true!! Thanks for the video!
No joke!!! A friend from south west AZ came up to visit in July she froze and I was in pjs lol We grew up together and I moved up here 14 yes ago. Oh it was funny
@OAT351 really lol. Its currently -23 real feel and now its bloody cold. The air temp is 3° thankfully we winter proofed our chicken coop early this year lol
Ah yes, the wind. I moved from Denver to Seatle years ago and rented a uhaul. It was an adventure on I-80 with the high wind gusts and that boxy vehicle. And it's almost always windy in Cheyenne. Always.
When I was 5 we had an old Chevy Vega wagon. One of the first cars GM tried to put an aluminum block motor into and consequently didn't weigh much. My mom and I were driving out past Riverton going somewhere and just kinda got shoved sideways off the highway. Freaked mom out . Surprised we didn't get turned over. After that we got a big old Plymouth station wagon with a 400 cubic inch iron block motor that probably weighed more than the entire Vega. That wind is hard for people who have never been there to believe.
@@markw999 it's crazy. We had a road trip and it was in a lighter vehicle. Driving against the wind we used like 25%-50% more gas then driving with it.
Seen a semi on the side of the road on its side just a few days ago when we had high wind. I couldn't believe so many of them were still going. I was struggling in my car to not get yanked sideways sometimes. The road signs were telling high profile vehicles to reroute. At work whenever it's windy we have to bungee our outside door open so it doesn't get yanked off the hinges when customers open it. The wind really is no joke here it's the type of wind that'll suck the air out of your lungs and make it hard to breath.
I’ve been a subscriber for quite sometime. I’m also from Wyoming and I’ve really been enjoying these videos about Wyoming, Jackson, and Mount Rushmore. You’ve totally nailed it with this one. I have a pro-tip for when you’re traveling through Wyoming, especially for when you’re in Yellowstone or other areas without reliable cell phone service. Be sure to bring some nice walkie talkie type radios with you. We have found this particularly helpful when we travel with several cars. We can stay in constant contact with our travel companions. It’s also great for when you’re traveling with children. It’s easy to get separated and having radios helps immensely on trails or even in souvenir shops. Make sure you get the kind with at least a 5 mile range because with all the mountains and hills, it shortens the range to probably more around 2 miles.
Casper, Wyoming here! Dude you nailed it. I’m so happy and proud of this video!!! Keep up the great work!!! Another golden jem to see and do in Wyoming, is Alcova Lake. It’s 30 miles west of Casper! Great fishing, camping, and some pretty nice sandy beaches to relax and have fun. If you have a boat, even better.
And there are couple of more awesome drives in Cody Country! South Fork is a dead end turn around drive well worth the trip. If you comfortable with mountain driving, into Yellowstone via Red Lodge, MT over bear tooth pass, second highest paved road in the US, largest expanse of tundra in the lower 48.
@@larrysmith6797 Wrong route? No such thing! they are all beautiful. btw, Father and Uncle built most of the original paved roads in the area, including those in the Park. My preference, into the Park through Red Lodge, not recommended for flat landers.
A few more "don'ts": 1. Don't think that you can drink or party at high altitude the way you can near sea level. Alcohol will hit you much faster at high altitude. 2. Don't mis-pronounce place names. Towogatee Pass is Tow-ga-tee Pass. The town of Dubois is Dew-boyz, not Du-Bwah. The Popoagie River is the po-PO-shah. 3. Don't be surprised or alarmed if you see someone carrying a gun. You won't see it on every corner but it does happen. Wyoming has the highest per capita rate of gun ownership of any state (although I don't know how they calculate that since there is no gun registration in WY). Also, many people hunt and eat wild game. Some school districts cancel school on the opening day of deer/antelope/elk season because most of the boys and many of the girls won't be there anyway. 4. Don't forget to pack snacks and drinks in the car. It is sometimes a long way between towns. 5. Don't just speed through on the way to the Tetons or Yellowstone. Stop and ask a random local what there is to see and do nearby. You'll end up seeing some very cool thngs that most tourists do not get to see. 6. Don't ignore the comments in the video about the wind, particularly if you have or are pulling a high profile vehicle. It can be brutal.
I spent a week in Jackson and spent every waking hour hiking. I was there in September and the weather couldn't have been nicer - cool nights and warm days. the low humidity was a plus. Another thing that amazed me is how clean the air was. On a couple of morning,s I'd leave my hotel room and find a moose wandering around showing no fear. Pretty nifty.
Even though I don't live there now I grew up there and I still love it. Please don't think because you visited Cheyenne and drove on i-80 that you know all there is about Wyoming, there is so much more.
I learned from personal experience how valuable this gentleman's advice is. When I was a five year old boy in 1953 my Dad took Mom, my grandparents and I on a trip to Wyoming. We couldn't find a vacant motel room in or near Dubois and ended up sleeping in our car parked on the other side of the street from the local police station. Men in cowboy hats entered and departed from the station every so often all night long. I vividly remember waking up at dawn with the sky blazing fiery red. On a later trip I took in 1978 I left my motel in Rawlins low on gas and headed north, thinking there'd be a filling station just north of town. I drove and drove ... and drove ... until my car was running on vapor. To my great relief I finally found gas in a place called Muddy Gap. I swore I'd never do THAT again!
FYI when he's talking wind we mean 40+ steady with gusts greater than 60 mph. The state has variable speed limit signs ie digital that they will adjust based on road conditions. Don't do the stupid 10 over the speed limit. WHP will ticket over 5mph fyi. If it snows stay off the roads for you'll get acquainted with black ice and total your vehicle.

Great advice about visiting our beautiful state! I live in the SW corner (Rock Springs/Green River area) and we have amazing outdoor areas like Flaming Gorge, sand dunes, and wild horse trails! Some other DON'TS to consider about Wyoming... 1. DON'T ignore the signage. We have a lot of variable speed signs (because of weather/wind), and lots of DOT signs warning travelers of road conditions. Please follow them for your safety and others. 2. DON'T forget to stop by each town's Chamber of Commerce and get a really cool travel sticker from that area. Wyoming Travel and Tourism has an awesome stick campaign and I highly suggest checking it out. As a local, I love collecting the stickers and I'm almost done with my collection. 3. DON'T rush things! We like to say Wyoming is a small town with long roads, so please take your time traveling from one place to another and don't speed/rush to your next destination. Enjoy the journey and the beautiful scenery. Hope to see you here soon!
I think I collected something like 22 different stickers, but there are still a few I didn't get. Many of the "sticker stops" offered multiple sticker designs, but would often only give out one per visit. This necessitated making two or more stops at some locations. It's now 2022, and I'm not sure if the sticker campaign is still going, but if it is, it's a fun way to learn about what the state has to offer.
As someone from wyoming, if we aren't from Jackson we all call it Jackson-hole or J-Hole. Most other cities and towns in Wyoming aren't very fond of that city. A little bit of that is because they're so much more liberal than the rest of the state (Pindale, on of the small towns below J-hole, actually call it Little California, and that's not a term of endearment here) but in general a lot of the towns are very territorial toward each other because they're so small and the space between so large
@@tylert820 Evanston is fine, I've fine. It's the of southwest Wyoming, specifically The Red Desert so be prepared for that, it's the closest the Salt Lake City if you like taking trips into a proper city, or if you plan on flying a lot that will cut down on your lay overs, Rock Springs doesn't fly directly to anywhere other than Salt Lake or Denver. Evanston has Wyoming state psychiatric hospital so the joke with the rest of that states is that's where the crazies live, but I live in Rock Springs and the rest of the state calls use meth town since we fall on the crossroads of 2 drug corridors, but all of the state has it's ups and downs, they're all great places to live depending on what you're looking for. Most of the picking on each other is more of a sibling rivalry thing, none of us really likes each other south west WY doesn't super like north west WY, the rangers don't really like the oil fielders, the oil fielders don't really like the game wardens. But we'll be damned if any out of staters talk smack about one of them to our face. Even Jackson it may be a pain in the ass, but it's our pain in the ass
@@hostile_prof so I’m from south Louisiana but I worked in NoDak for awhile so I’m not worried about the cold when we were looking at it we narrowed it down to 4 cities green river , Evanston , Cody or rock springs
To the incredible folk of Wyoming, what an amazing place. My family and I visited Laramie and beauty spots around. We come from the Countryside in what we call "The West country" in the United Kingdom. We very much enjoyed our visit to your beautiful country, Thank You all for your hospitality, Regards the Hamilton Family.
As a long time Wyoming local, who only recently moved to North Dakota, I love this video, it's like going home. But I might mention that one of the true hidden gems that you may want to check out is a place called South Fork which can be accessed in Cody. Also when traversing the state from Southeast to Northwest a run through Wind River Canyon just outside Thermopolis is well worth the experience. Great video, great advice, though I might add to watch for Pedestrians when driving through Yellowstone, they seem to forget how close to the road they are when stopping to photograph wild life.
@Star Warden well all those rich people in South Fork can share that splendid beauty, and Wind River Canyon, especially once they get done with the bridge work on the Thermopolis side, along with Chief Joseph Highway are experiences unlike anything else. I just love Wyoming, there is far more to it than just Yellowstone. Sorry if you want to keep it such a secret, I just don't feel that way.
@@cowboycody8094 the Painted Canyon in Western North Dakota was pretty awesome as well. I look forward to exploring North Dakota, and Minnesota as well.
I was born in Wyoming and spent my childhood there. Love the country out there. Had to laugh at your description of how talkative the locals are, because that fits my dad to the tee. He will start a conversation with anybody, and he's generally super helpful to everyone. I know for a fact from experience (both ways) that people in Wyoming will drive an hour out of their way to help someone who's stranded, etc. Or at least they did when I was a kid. Cell phones may have changed the equation since then.
That's where I should be. A place where you can strike up a conversation. Say anything to a stranger out here and they look at you like "Stay away, freak!" It's not California, it just filled with everyone from there.
Thank you for doing a See America First® campaign, starting with this wonderful series on my home state and town (Cheyenne). We moved here in 2011 from Portland Oregon and have not regretted it for a minute. Nice to see things that I routinely walk to on your show. I would like to bump into some of your viewers.
Wyoming was by far one of my fav states I visited on my last road trip. Wish we had more time there. Beautiful, free, and so underrated. Also, I'm from Texas, and I live in Alberta, so it's almost blasphemy to say it but, the BEST steak I've ever had was from there.
Born and raised in Gillette, Wyoming here and love the video. You nailed everything perfectly. Us Wyoming people still laugh about the kum&go it always has been and will forever be the biggest joke lol. Also am in full agreement with not telling us what to do. I couldn’t have said it better myself. So true about us all we don’t wanna here about what you do back home cuz guess what you’re not there anymore! Lol perfect video. Keep it up thank you for this!
Exactly. Actually this video should be required viewing by every tourist as they enter our state. Every year we hear about tourists being mauled and gored because they tried to pet a bison in Yellowstone
The Kum n Go franchise bought out the old 7-11 stores years ago. I've made Gillette home about 4 times in my past. Sheridan is where I was born and raised....5th gen, too.
That sun is something fierce in Wyoming. I made the mistake of thinking I was fine without sunblock my first day there because it was in the 30s at night and only low 70s during the day. I got FRIED. Everyone should absolutely heed to that warning.
31.10.20. UK.Backroads US. Our Credentials Not Spell Chckd. This is what the UK Police have told us can never be read by public..Firstly re the films. When we saw the first few episodes this we were impressed But just as with so many of the films on the Internet we started thinkin,not just lookin. Here is what we know to be of value. Our trainin was 12 yrs spent traipsin Cent London knockin at doors axxompanied by victims of the establ. We got death threats from HM court system and the US security orgs like Burns. They were the ones who shot and beat up US Workers when they refused to Accept starvation wages.. We are still being subjected to violence by Police and we have endured threats of violence by US embassy etc. The public are not much different. We found 2.5 people who could be trusted. The friends we had at BBC said- "Hide the Evidence Abroad" The indictment? 30000 avoid deaths over 35 yrs. The press,.F-bk. twitter. yahoo etc destoy the evidence. Heres our report on the films about backroads.The Daily Woo. How can this man go around staring at abandoned buildings dwellings businesses without asking the folks round there how they are coping and why the people left there and even left valuable automobiles and trucks to stand and rot. This character spent more time chattin to cows,steers, horses than to the suffering folks. We noiticed that when he showed a "church" it seemed to be in good shape. Aint that typical. Go look at parts of poverty stricken Italy and what do we find but massive luxury buildings. When we first were approached by victims we did not fully believe their tales. Within two yrs we went to the giant HGQ of the Catholic Religion in London and tried to tell them about all the evidence.,they could not care less We went to that Catholic HQ because one of their "faithful" supporters when he had an accident was offered 5 pence by a vicar as a remedy for poverty.We went to five other religions and all politrical orgs,wirth same result. We then found out trhat they are getting handouts thro Govt and or Charity lotterty etc.We were getting threats .Its all about compliance which keeps the Govt in place. When you add sport,art ,drama you got a mirror image of 3rd Reich and Roman empire PR. The kids are the scapegoats We have now found over 26 corrupt Universities and no student responds. That also took place in 1933 Germany. The man doing these films needs to become more human rather trhan play silly games in order to appease the public and get ticks..

Or bears maul tourist whats so hard to understand don't feed the bears bears are powerful predators I seen them flip a truck! There the hungry hungry hippos of North America they want to eat food and when they don't get food because they are all the food they will try to make you food!
Totally recommend Sheridan Wyoming during the summer months. We have bed racing, Sheridan WYO Rodeo, street dance, and all kinds of fun stuff! I used to live there, so I can totally tell you some do’s and don’t’s to put in a video
I live in cody, we have some beautiful mountains and roads in my area going through the shoshone NF. Dont forget to bring your bear spray if you explore the back country.
Montanan here... Great vid... Jackson Hole blew me away. Regarding the weather, as you mentioned it really is extreme. Montana and Wyoming hold almost all of the *world* records for largest and quickest temperature changes. Yellowstone can see snow in July and August -- it'll usually happen once or twice a summer, so it's not even abnormal or rare.
I remember driving across Wyoming and being a little wary about passing the semis because as soon as you come out of the wind shadow you get pulled immediately into the path of a much bigger vehicle!
I'm a South Carolinian. I've been to Wyoming and cell service is limited. I'm going back next year 2021 as a vacationer. Before I was a trucker and it's beautiful there. They pride themselves in that they still have only one area code. This podcast is very informative! A couple of my podcasts were taken in Wyoming. My Adventures In Trucking. It can be warm during the day and cold at night and the wind can be fierce. P.S. I've subscribed to your channel.
Couldn't agree more with all of these. I spent the better part of a month in Wyoming back in 2012 for a college camping trip. It is possibly my favorite U.S. state that I've visited.
I'll always remember when I went from Yellowstone to Badlands, and my GPS said to go way out of the way. But I noticed there was a road that goes straight between them, so I thought my GPS was confused and did that instead. Yeah, instead of driving 4 hours on the highway I spent the next 10 hours zig-zagging up and down mountains at 20mph...
Always talk to us locals because like you said there is much more to wyoming and we really do like to help people try funding places like the little sandy, big sand, and bluecher creek also the red desert around wamsutter is full of things like the old man and the boy, the haystack (where you can find awesome fossils and even sharks teeth), and lots of other places to find history like the old forts that dot the state, and if ya happen to meet me ill be happy to show ya around 😀
Wyoming! Stop the torture of children in your state! Shut down Trinity Teen Solutions and Triangle Cross Ranch! They have tortured boys and girls for 20 years now. Enough! Look in to it....END THIS
Wyoming is likely my favorite state. First time I drove over togwatee pass and saw the tetons I cried a little. So beautiful. A 50 something man who had wanted to climb grand teton almost 40 years and finally saw it, too late for climbing. Last time I was in Yellowstone it snowed. On July 4th. Bison and elk should never be fed to tourists. They will not be able to go back to beef when they get home. A few years ago there was a proposal to add cell towers in Yellowstone. Made me sick. Turn off the phone and enjoy the massive beauty. Airports out west don't have wind socks. They have wind chains. You get used to hooking your foot under the car door when you open it to keep the wind from breaking it off the hinges.
Wyoming's two nicest areas are around Lander and around Sheridan, but there are long stretches of bareness here as well. This bareness is, in large part, because it's cheaper to build and maintain roads in the bare areas. So, the best way to travel in Wyoming is in a four-wheel-drive vehicle with high clearance. The best sights and landscapes in this state are not in any brochure. Discovery happens by just taking an exit and driving on dirt roads. Don't do this from October through May unless you've been there before, regardless of your vehicle. Random travel on dirt roads is a pastime here, but be completely prepared with tents, food, water, etc. I live in Casper and I can easily travel to a place with no humans from where I stand to the horizon in any direction in no more than an hour. Cowboy culture is big, but it's not the only culture here. We have a small, but vibrant, arts culture and we have a large oilfield culture. Because of that oilfield culture, it's best to ditch that Southern accent at the state line. It's one of the few things that will get you treated differently here (the history of that is complicated). Finally, unless you eat the local fare, which would include steaks and what most people would call southwestern cuisine, it's hard for restaurants or grocery stores to obtain fresh produce. If you're used to living in a city, don't chance anything exotic here unless you're in Jackson (where you will pay for the privilege) or, perhaps, Cheyenne and Laramie (which are close enough to the Colorado supply chains). This is not a gourmet-food destination. Anyhow, I like your video. Cheyenne and Jackson are the top tourist-friendly places in the state, but most Wyomingites just never go to either one and wouldn't recommend them. I'm fourth generation in this state and over 50. I do enjoy your European travel videos and have been to many of the places you make videos about since I speak French and German (that I learned in Wyoming schools) and have traveled and lived widely there and the Far East. Many Wyomingites are travelers. I can practice my Mandarin right here in Casper anytime with either native speakers or people who have lived in China and come back. It's the same with French and German. It doesn't look like that on the surface, I know.
The majority of the state is barren. South Eastern Wyoming almost completely lacks trees the second you cross the state line. 95% of the residents are conservative Christian. Cheyenne has more of a military culture than a cowboy one.
@@Wesley296 My town has a great art scene, and a couple really good restaurants. There are a fair number of LGBTQ+ folks here as well, and nobody’s in their business. People around here are not in your face about religion. That was WAY worse in the South where I grew up. We are pretty much as live and let live kind of place. I love it here.
@@Wesley296 It's true that the southeastern part of the state is a huge desert and that the state, in general, is arid. I'd say 60% conservative Christian , though, and that the military culture is common everywhere here.
Mr. Wolters, thanks for the great video! My husband and I were looking for a great Wyoming travel video, and we found myriads of short "commercials" and a PBS show and a STUPID reality show. We were about to give up. Your travel vids are better advertisement for Wyoming than most of the "official" Wyoming videos. Also thanks for keeping lots of humor and scenic footage with the smart warnings and travel tips. We really appreciate you and your family!
Another tip as someone who was born and raised a Wyomingite: don’t expect most hotels to be five stars/fancy hotels that big cities have. Most of them are 3 stars at the highest.
Fun to listen to someone else's perspective. I think it is pretty accurate. Also if you want to come to wy and you have not had a lot of experience driving on snow and ice only come July August or September. And you still might end up having snow those months. October through basically June is our winter months. If traveling any other times always check road reports and weather. If going over any mountain pass it can be bad weather anytime so always look. In the winter always have something in your car to eat drink and stay warm in very low temperatures. it literally can save your life.
Really great advice. One more don't....Whenever passing a Wyoming rest stop, don't forget to ask everybody if they might need to stop. same goes for big truck strops and "Kum and Go". The distances between services can be large....especially for the kids.
Granted we are a hunting family so the idea of bison or elk or venison isn't strange to hear. The thing is, if people like or even love beef, they will LOVE bison or elk! It's far healthier and way more lean that beef. We've not had beef in our freezer for years and it's rarely we'll have it unless we head out to a steakhouse that doesn't have anything but. One of the way's I've found to get converts is to make an elk or bison stew or chili! The guests will think it's beef, they don't find out until after dinner is long over so their head doesn't start playing games with their stomach!
The first statement is the most relevant since, as with most Westerners, the folks in Wyoming are independent and don’t like someone who has been around for 30 seconds telling us what to do. As they saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. The parts about the weather being changeable and the wind being dangerous is spot on. A few years ago I was hauling a stock trailer carrying horse from Casper back to New Mexico and while it was only breezy in Casper, by the time I was 20 miles north of Wheatland it was blowing 45 miles per hour and gusting to 60. The highway patrol diverted high profile traffic off the highway and I spend four hours in Wheatland waiting to get back on the highway. The folks in Wyoming are awesome and I've always been made to feel like I'm part of big family when I visit my friends in Wyoming.
I'm beyond surprised to see you were here in Wyoming, about 13 months ago... Thank you for a great, honest, pleasant review... Sound advice!!! It's a good idea to keep winter jacket nearby, all year round!!! Very special place to live!!! I was born in Laramie, have lived elsewhere as an adult, always find my way home, with good reason!!!
I am way impressed how well you covered everything. I love walking near the hot springs when it's cold. The hot air that comes in from the springs feels amazing. My wife and I's honeymoon was at Yellowstone.That gas station is hilarious. We have a gas station where my wife grew up called the G Spot.
You covered a lot of ground in this one, this is useful info for any tourist and I hope you had a great time here. These animals are not zoo animals, I cannot say it enough. Today was bright and sunny and 80, tomorrow will be snowy and cold and windy. Even the locals that try to tell other locals what to do will get a cold shoulder here but when we need help in agricultural communities, we put our differences aside to help each other wether we like each other or not and that's something to be said. You might think people here may be unintelligent or stubborn but you have to understand the culture and not many can wrap they're head around it. I guess we just put up with each other but also understand each other's background, that's the best way I can describe it. We're a community that would rather take care of each other than have the govmt get involved. Yep were pretty independent, take care.
Seriously...that snow we got last month was insane. It broke a ton of branches off my trees. It was a tree apocalypse in my yard. The tree guys were slammed for weeks. My neighbor had 4 huge trees come down.
But I do want to move there after my retirement. I was from Lincoln, Nebraska, then Houston, Texas....cold and hot weather ain't bringing me down. Love to explore my new future territory which I'm calling home soon in 2025.
Very nice and informative video. Lots of great advice and then the locals chime in on the comments. Y'all are friendly indeed. Every year I keep saying ... this is the year I get to visit Wyoming. Then something comes up and I don't get to visit. Well, God willing I'm aiming to make this a reality in 2021. Thanks ever so much for the great advice. ~Sherrie in South Carolina
Funny...I just realized that I have lived in every state that borders on Wyoming, but never in the state itself! In Nebraska, I was only 6 miles away. I have seen lots and lots of Wyoming, and it's a beautiful state. As a history nerd, it's also plays a crucial part in America's story. Great vid, enjoyed it.
Aaah i really wanna taste that elk burger or bison beef...someday i will come here.....super stunning place.....what a bless for a people living in here...and i know people in wyoming are great and friendly people...greetings from Malaysia
Wyoming also doesn't plow and de-ice their roads in the winter. Drove from Salt Lake to Denver once. I-80 up to the Wyoming border was plowed, salted, and sanded and you could drive at a normal speed. Cross over into Wyoming and the road turns into a sheet of ice for the next 200 miles. Stopped to get gas and some girl working in the store said basically Wyoming is too cheap to plow their roads.
Depends on the part of Wyoming you are in. 287 from Laramie to Colorado is plowed and 80 all around Laramie is kept plowed but around Elk Mountain isn't and parts past Cheyenne aren't its also about how fast the snow is falling and the wind is blowing. There are alot variables into the plowing of all the roads.
It's not that we're too cheap to plow our roads, it's that it's too expensive to have the snowplows running 24/7, because that's what we would need with the wind whipping it all over the place.
Agree with the depends on what part of Wyoming you are in as well as the can’t plow and salt 24/7. I live in northeastern Wyoming and I-90 is plowed regularly but I also use to not live in town (about 14 miles away). I have had to drive into town in the winter to get one of my kids from an after school activity and the roads will have been plowed and sand/salted only to drive back home half an hour later on roads that don’t look like a plow had been on them at all.
I bought my America the Beautiful pass in August. I got it when I went to visit Devil's postpile and Rainbow falls in Mammoth, Ca. It also got me into Yosemite 2 weeks ago and I'm going again tomorrow. That pass is gonna save me so much money. 💜 Hetch Hetchy is next.
Wyoming has always interested me. I've never been there but the sheer size, the ruggedness, the nature, just everything. I'd really want to have a second home in Wyoming, to be able to truly get away from it all.
I love horses 🐎 and Wyoming. Grew up in Wisconsin. Long cold winter snow and wind. Summer short and pleasant. Fall colors on trees, chill, crisp air. Not as sunny like Wyoming. God likes variety 🙏 America 🇺🇸 the Beautiful. 🤠
@@nancykostrzak9275 I live in Wyoming and also was raised in Wisconsin. The transition wasn’t that bad. As long as you go to an area with trees. I live in Alpine Wy and don’t think I could live anywhere else.
I've been binge-watching videos to learn about travel in Europe and had no doubt you were sharing good info. After having lived in WY a decade and seeing what a good job you did explaining Wyoming, I'm even more impressed. It was really nice to see all the footage.
Wyoming is such a great beautiful state and everyone I met was so nice and accommodating! Of all of the western states Wyoming reminded me the most of cowboys, ranchers etc. and yes I went to a rodeo in Cody-a great little( not too little) town! I am glad you brought up the gas stations-whenever I am on the road(especially very rural areas) I fill up every chance I get even if I am at 1/4 tank better safe than sorry! Great video!
@@woltersworld living in Wyoming, I never get below a half tank. Made a 15 minute drive once that ended up an overnighter stuck in a blizzard. Thankfully I had filled up before heading out.
In 1962, we were having a pick-up steer roping contest just north of Cheyenne on AUGUST 16th. The big discussion was whether we had just been shut down that day by the last snow storm of last winter, or the first snow storm of next winter.
Lived in Cheyenne since 1974, we never ever put winter cloths/jackets/gloves/mittens and hats away. You never know. Now Wyoming is the least populated of all the states, yep, even Alaska has more people living in it then Wyoming. Altitude wise yes its high and dry, so drink lots of water, and take it easy till you get used to it. As for the town of Jackson, we in Wyoming call it Jackson Hole, and we all know what town is being talked about. As for the valley its in, that's the Snake River Valley. As for roads there aren't many. So you drive on what you have too. This also means that Bicycle's have the same right too all public roads as cars do.
Thank u for this video. I live in the big horn basin 90 miles east of Yellowstone. And about 90% of the search and rescue calls we get here is somebody following their GPS and it took them on a backroad up the mountain and stuck. So the GPS and research on ur routes is most important
@@florkyman5422 "Insular"? Then it's obvious you haven't any respect for such communities in the first place. If you and other ignorant people can't respect the speed limits in the little towns, just fly into Jackson Hole and don't drive... I think that's one of the most ignorant comments I've encountered today, though it seems to be the prevailing mentality these days.
As with a lot of places with national parks and forests, there’s a lot of places where you can camp for free or pretty cheap. Like even if it’s “full” don’t be afraid to go in and ask around the campground because people will probably let you set up next to them if there’s some space.
Glad to see this vid out. These are things I grew up learning (but I grew up around Ennis and Bozeman, just over the state line LOL). That safety stuff is critical, in so many ways. Heck, in the local paper in the summer, there were always stories of tourists who did stupid things. Like the couple who talked their toddler into getting his picture taken "With Yogi Bear", plopped the kid on the bear's back, and watched in horror as the kid was killed. Or the morons who don't think about how unpredictable a bison can be, and walk out into the middle of a herd and set up a tripod to take photos (seen that one myself, on Fountain Flats). Or the spoiled brat who threw their toy away into the Sunset Crater in a tantrum then raged for Dad go fetch it back for them. Didn't care if dad boiled to death long as they got their toy back. I'm a senior citizen now, early 70s, I was born when my dad was 50 yrs old. He was a carpenter by trade, and during the depression, in the 30s, he and some of his friends worked those WPA crews that built all those walks for safety in Yellowstone, as well as many other constructed features. So he knew all the safety issues and taught us -- and as a side benefit, he knew all the nifty stuff that was off the main loop that it would be cool to visit. Weatherwise, we were the same in Montana. Like the balmy April morning when I was in high school, temps abt 70 when I left to walk to school in a sundress and sandals, clouded over by the time I got there, snow falling by the time home room checkin was done at 8:30, 2 feet on the ground by the time school let out at 3:45. Walked home in sundress and sandals. through that. Had to laugh about eateries actually serving Rocky Mountain Oysters. Poor donkeys. Heehawing in soprano just to feed the tourists. 'Course as a kid, my dad used to take an elk every winter, and we used to have "wapiti chops" for dinner when he did.
Wow. I can’t believe someone put their kid on a bear! I hope the parents were charged with something. When did that happen? Maybe they were from Russia.
The magic of Professor Wolters teaching is statements like " You're much more tasty then a chicken sandwich" His words have a gentle way of touching your soul that you can't help but to absorb his message as soon as you tune into his frequency.
Thanks Tony. That is really nice of you.
@@woltersworld You're welcome sir I'm only speaking the truth.
@@woltersworld you got to come back out man and check out the southwestern part of the state The Flaming Gorge is amazing in the summer beautiful country some of the best fishing you can find
instablaster.
Praise Professor Wolters magic
Raised in Wyoming (live in Oregon now), and this video has made me think that the reason my gas tank rarely goes below 1/4 of a tank is because I grew up in Wyoming.
Remember, if you're going out to hike in bear and mountain lion country, ALWAYS take a buddy with you and make sure your buddy can't run as fast as you can.
😂
Just carry a gun
Oh my goodness 😂
Sooooooo,,,the unit we elk hunt in doesn't have any "big" bears, but it is LOADED with mountain lions! Loaded as in bordering on 50% of the bowhunters have an encounter. So at least carry bear spray even if it's not grizzly country. You are NOT the top of the food chain in Wyoming.
@@stevecrader3479 Hmmmm. Human not at the top of the food chain. Just like on Amity Island!
In my experience driving through Wyoming, the best advice you provided is to stop for gas whenever you see a station. We drove from southern Utah thorough Wyoming; our destination was the Tetons. By chance, I stopped for gas and filled up in a small town. Thank goodness I did! We drove for hours and never saw a car, a home, a cow...nothing but signs that said “Free range.” Never saw even a chicken but wondered “where would they even come from?” After 6 hours, we saw one gas station that had a small store and bunks and showers in the back. We coasted in on fumes! I was never so happy to see a gas station in my life!

This is great advice. A good friend who lives in Buffalo, Wyoming and travels to DuBois on a regular basis always fills up when he leaves and has a drop tank in his truck. A five gallon gas can in a car is not a bad idea. Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.
And to think that this desolate wasteland welds as much power as New York with its two senators. I don't think that's Adam's idea of democracy.
When you ask directions we don't tell you miles we tell you how many hours you'll be driving.
@@mns8732 we have the coal that powers the grid yall charge your gay electric cars on. If we secede you are fucked. NY could get turned to glass with a hydrogen bomb , Wyoming wont notice. Without our coal , oil and natural gas America is fucked.
Correction, we locals never actually put away our winter coats. They live in our cars lol!
Correction. We locals wear shorts and flip flops year round. Except on really bad days
Yeah, pretty much. Been in the Gillette area since 97, have seen snow in every month and still laugh at "Kum and Go".
Fleece is your friend! And is very efficient and thin and hugs your body for the heat.
Every car should have a winter kit.
I wear long handles about 7 months of the year. Cheyenne resident.

For the love of God, dont get off the plane in Jackson and hit up the first western wear store and buy a cowboy hat / duds.
NOTHING screams "stupid tourist" more than that. Go with Carharrt gear and you'll fit right in.
Dont drive like a clown on 80 in winter. Please stay tuned to weather forecasts , and if you're a trucker , invest in a CB. We have EPIC wrecks on 80 during winter , all avoidable , all caused by non-natives. Most importantly.......
If you're from California , we DO NOT CARE how you do anything back there , or that we should do things like that.
That state is a festering dookie hole , we are NOT.
Thank you...
The statement of the day "festering dookie hole" got it, lol I actually thought you were going to say if you're from California don't bother coming at all, lol just kidding not all are bad.
Nothing wrong with buying a pair of Levis or Wangler jeans, just stay away from cowboy boots and cheap cowboy hats. As the man said Carharrt stuff is the best, and a good ball cap. Come have fun, spend money and it will all be good.
@J Andrade My smallest revolver is a .357 Magnum with 7 inch barrel. I really only strap it on during hunting season.

One more don't: if you're going to Yellowstone (and let's face it you are) there are a lot of little town you will probably need to stop at for supplies, so of these towns only have on grocery store. The employees are underpaid and over worked, and a good amount of them are single parents stretching paychecks. Please don't be rude to them because everything is so expensive, they barely see any of that money as most of it goes to just getting it to the remote locations
Life is really a paradox thank you for letting us know that
Absolutely. Thank you for this advice.
Best to just be GRATEFUL the store is even there, buy what you need (or what they HAVE that is almost what you really want) and leave like a civilized person.
And don't get mad if the West Yellowstone clerks have to card you even if you look old enough to be their grandparent. They got slammed with a bunch of fines a few years ago. (And do stop and get food in a town outside Yellowstone, because the Yellowstone food is even more expensive and dire even for national park fare.)
@@hadleyjolley3375 all true! And those small businesses depend on tourism dollars to survive. The more business they do, the more they can expand every facet of their business from hours of operation to item selection.
I'm a lifelong resident of Wy. The gas warnings are absolutely legitimate. Through my 37 years in the Casper area, I have come across 3 out of staters that were blindly following their GPS units and heading into unmaintained roads during our winter season. These roads can go months without any traffic, if you get stuck in snow or mud you may be faced with 20 - 50 mile walks out (With no cell signal) or possibly weeks to months before anyone else drives that road. Those 3 cars were lucky that I was in the area with my winch, shovels, tow straps and shackles to recover their vehicles (all front wheel drive cars) from the snow and mud, (as well as my winter survival preps like, water, food, blankets and satellite communications that I carry in my truck year round). Be very careful about your route, GPS has proven to take unsuspecting drivers down very rural, unmaintained roads with extremely low travel during our bad seasons.
“Don’t mess with the wind”
That’s the most important one on here. Wyoming is the only state that gets 80 mph winds often.
What region of Wyoming has the least amount of wind?
@@avatar19822None. Mother earths way of blowing the weaklings out.
@@avatar19822 if you go west of the Wind Rivers you are generally pretty good.
@@Neo_Sprout yea all the way to the coast and stay there
@@avatar19822 It typically comes from the NW, though it can shift at any time. Generally speaking, the western part of the state is more shielded from wind due to the terrain (Rockies, Tetons, etc.), but if you don't like wind it's probably best to avoid places on the open plains or like Laramie, which sits in a wide valley that acts as a sort of natural wind tunnel. Fun fact, Wyomingites are so used to near constant wind that when it drops, the suicide rate spikes.
Growing up in Laramie, we watched a 4th of July fireworks in a snowstorm. Mirror Lake and Vedauwoo were our playgrounds.
From cheyenne i loved going hiking thru Vedauwoo (vee-da-voo) at like 11:30 at night
I live in Laramie. And I watch the fireworks every year
Also killed a guy for being gay
@@stephendavis8804 Damn. I have lived in Laramie for about 8 years and nobody has said anything about my sexuality. I can't believe there r people who would kill for such a tiny reason
I use to crawl around inside Ames Monument.
An other lesson in wyoming. That we dont measure the distance between citiesbir towns by miles. We measure in hours
So true!
Dang
I worked at a gas station just over the border by Rushmore/ Sturgis and I used to love when tourists would ask where the nearest walmart was. They were always so dumbfounded when I told them pick any direction out of town and drive at least an HR and 15 minutes.
I've been up the 25 twice, and I can attest to that.
Yep.
Wyoming was not even on my travel radar, and now I'm definitely reconsidering!
it was a cool state. I really enjoyed it.
You should. It’s magically beautiful.
Thought the same thing
Wyoming is magic. It's a rugged magic, though. Be prepared.
Born and raised in Sheridan, Wy. You definitely should come here, it's absolutely gorgeous.
Born in Cheyenne and was raised there and in Seattle. Lol weird combo. We just traveled back for a family wedding this summer. My husband’s first time. He got a kick out of the Kum and Go, too. Lol this video was top notch. The number one don’t tell locals what to do made me laugh out loud!!! So true!! Thanks for the video!
I like the name haha
Why would you tell them anything. They enjoy doing things backwards.
My tips for Wyoming
1. Be prepared to stop in the winter
2. Be prepared to drive long distances without towns
3. Be prepared to not have cell service
Another big one is do not judge you level of clothing layers based on the locals. What is still t-shirt weather for us is freezing for others
No joke!!! A friend from south west AZ came up to visit in July she froze and I was in pjs lol We grew up together and I moved up here 14 yes ago. Oh it was funny
@OAT351 really lol. Its currently -23 real feel and now its bloody cold. The air temp is 3° thankfully we winter proofed our chicken coop early this year lol
Live in South Dakota and yes winter unless its in the 20s or worse its light jacket or hoodie.
yes!
Love this...Wyoming is my home...no truer words were spoken than in this video...especially #1
Thank you
Ah yes, the wind. I moved from Denver to Seatle years ago and rented a uhaul. It was an adventure on I-80 with the high wind gusts and that boxy vehicle. And it's almost always windy in Cheyenne. Always.
"Don't tell people from Wyoming what to do." This is directed at Californians.
Amen
Don't let the California people move in they are just going to ruin Wyoming
@@scottr5775 California doesn't want to touch a worthless state like Wyoming, I can assure you.
@Obi-wan Kenobi Hoping you become grizzly bear food if you move there. That's one of the ways they have of keeping their population under control.
@ F M, enjoy your massive taxes, 💩 and 💉 on the streets, and insane crime rates.
You ain't kidding about the wind! Used to drive a Semi and almost got blown over while going through Wyoming.
Happens all the time.
Yep, try not to freak out too much when you drive by the napping semis along side the road ;)
When I was 5 we had an old Chevy Vega wagon. One of the first cars GM tried to put an aluminum block motor into and consequently didn't weigh much. My mom and I were driving out past Riverton going somewhere and just kinda got shoved sideways off the highway. Freaked mom out . Surprised we didn't get turned over. After that we got a big old Plymouth station wagon with a 400 cubic inch iron block motor that probably weighed more than the entire Vega. That wind is hard for people who have never been there to believe.
@@markw999 it's crazy. We had a road trip and it was in a lighter vehicle. Driving against the wind we used like 25%-50% more gas then driving with it.
Seen a semi on the side of the road on its side just a few days ago when we had high wind. I couldn't believe so many of them were still going. I was struggling in my car to not get yanked sideways sometimes. The road signs were telling high profile vehicles to reroute. At work whenever it's windy we have to bungee our outside door open so it doesn't get yanked off the hinges when customers open it. The wind really is no joke here it's the type of wind that'll suck the air out of your lungs and make it hard to breath.
I’ve been a subscriber for quite sometime. I’m also from Wyoming and I’ve really been enjoying these videos about Wyoming, Jackson, and Mount Rushmore. You’ve totally nailed it with this one. I have a pro-tip for when you’re traveling through Wyoming, especially for when you’re in Yellowstone or other areas without reliable cell phone service. Be sure to bring some nice walkie talkie type radios with you. We have found this particularly helpful when we travel with several cars. We can stay in constant contact with our travel companions. It’s also great for when you’re traveling with children. It’s easy to get separated and having radios helps immensely on trails or even in souvenir shops. Make sure you get the kind with at least a 5 mile range because with all the mountains and hills, it shortens the range to probably more around 2 miles.
Casper, Wyoming here! Dude you nailed it. I’m so happy and proud of this video!!! Keep up the great work!!! Another golden jem to see and do in Wyoming, is Alcova Lake. It’s 30 miles west of Casper! Great fishing, camping, and some pretty nice sandy beaches to relax and have fun. If you have a boat, even better.
Wait till you go to Cody from Yellowstone. Thats a beautiful drive.
And there are couple of more awesome drives in Cody Country! South Fork is a dead end turn around drive well worth the trip. If you comfortable with mountain driving, into Yellowstone via Red Lodge, MT over bear tooth pass, second highest paved road in the US, largest expanse of tundra in the lower 48.
Ha! You took the wrong route. Cody to the Northeast Gate - Chief Joseph Scenic Highway to the Beartooth Highway to Cook City, Montana.
@@larrysmith6797 I'll have to remember this for my next trip in a few years. Thanks for the info 👍
@@larrysmith6797 Wrong route? No such thing! they are all beautiful. btw, Father and Uncle built most of the original paved roads in the area, including those in the Park. My preference, into the Park through Red Lodge, not recommended for flat landers.
@@larrysmith6797 I did the Northeast Gate to Cody during a summer sunset and it was the most beautiful drive I have ever done.
A few more "don'ts": 1. Don't think that you can drink or party at high altitude the way you can near sea level. Alcohol will hit you much faster at high altitude.
2. Don't mis-pronounce place names. Towogatee Pass is Tow-ga-tee Pass. The town of Dubois is Dew-boyz, not Du-Bwah. The Popoagie River is the po-PO-shah.
3. Don't be surprised or alarmed if you see someone carrying a gun. You won't see it on every corner but it does happen. Wyoming has the highest per capita rate of gun ownership of any state (although I don't know how they calculate that since there is no gun registration in WY). Also, many people hunt and eat wild game. Some school districts cancel school on the opening day of deer/antelope/elk season because most of the boys and many of the girls won't be there anyway.
4. Don't forget to pack snacks and drinks in the car. It is sometimes a long way between towns.
5. Don't just speed through on the way to the Tetons or Yellowstone. Stop and ask a random local what there is to see and do nearby. You'll end up seeing some very cool thngs that most tourists do not get to see.
6. Don't ignore the comments in the video about the wind, particularly if you have or are pulling a high profile vehicle. It can be brutal.
I spent a week in Jackson and spent every waking hour hiking. I was there in September and the weather couldn't have been nicer - cool nights and warm days. the low humidity was a plus. Another thing that amazed me is how clean the air was. On a couple of morning,s I'd leave my hotel room and find a moose wandering around showing no fear. Pretty nifty.
Don’t #1 of Wyoming: Don’t move here, the states full. Go to Colorado.
I’m moving from colorado to Wyoming can’t wait to move to Wyoming California ruined colorado it’s calirodo now 🤦🏽
We're full
Montana is full too no vacancy
@@JayElement13 Agree! That's what we would like to do. We call it Commu-rado!
Colorado is Full, Thanks!
I like Wyoming! It's fun to drive through and visit!
How does one Drive "Through" first and still be able to Visit?
Even though I don't live there now I grew up there and I still love it. Please don't think because you visited Cheyenne and drove on i-80 that you know all there is about Wyoming, there is so much more.
Quiet shoosh
I learned from personal experience how valuable this gentleman's advice is. When I was a five year old boy in 1953 my Dad took Mom, my grandparents and I on a trip to Wyoming. We couldn't find a vacant motel room in or near Dubois and ended up sleeping in our car parked on the other side of the street from the local police station. Men in cowboy hats entered and departed from the station every so often all night long. I vividly remember waking up at dawn with the sky blazing fiery red. On a later trip I took in 1978 I left my motel in Rawlins low on gas and headed north, thinking there'd be a filling station just north of town. I drove and drove ... and drove ... until my car was running on vapor. To my great relief I finally found gas in a place called Muddy Gap. I swore I'd never do THAT again!
FYI when he's talking wind we mean 40+ steady with gusts greater than 60 mph. The state has variable speed limit signs ie digital that they will adjust based on road conditions. Don't do the stupid 10 over the speed limit. WHP will ticket over 5mph fyi. If it snows stay off the roads for you'll get acquainted with black ice and total your vehicle.

In Wyoming it's only considered windy when the truck tire chains hanging on the fence rise to a horizontal position LOL.
@@WarHawk- Yep, if the chains aren't horizontal, it's just a breeze. :)
Great advice about visiting our beautiful state! I live in the SW corner (Rock Springs/Green River area) and we have amazing outdoor areas like Flaming Gorge, sand dunes, and wild horse trails! Some other DON'TS to consider about Wyoming... 1. DON'T ignore the signage. We have a lot of variable speed signs (because of weather/wind), and lots of DOT signs warning travelers of road conditions. Please follow them for your safety and others. 2. DON'T forget to stop by each town's Chamber of Commerce and get a really cool travel sticker from that area. Wyoming Travel and Tourism has an awesome stick campaign and I highly suggest checking it out. As a local, I love collecting the stickers and I'm almost done with my collection. 3. DON'T rush things! We like to say Wyoming is a small town with long roads, so please take your time traveling from one place to another and don't speed/rush to your next destination. Enjoy the journey and the beautiful scenery. Hope to see you here soon!
This is a great comment. thanks for the extra information! Much appreciated!
One town with long streets is spot on. It's a common saying here.
Well said. It'ss not worth gaining 5 minutes by speeding. Just to have a deer or pronghorn ruin your week.
I think I collected something like 22 different stickers, but there are still a few I didn't get. Many of the "sticker stops" offered multiple sticker designs, but would often only give out one per visit. This necessitated making two or more stops at some locations. It's now 2022, and I'm not sure if the sticker campaign is still going, but if it is, it's a fun way to learn about what the state has to offer.
As someone from wyoming, if we aren't from Jackson we all call it Jackson-hole or J-Hole. Most other cities and towns in Wyoming aren't very fond of that city. A little bit of that is because they're so much more liberal than the rest of the state (Pindale, on of the small towns below J-hole, actually call it Little California, and that's not a term of endearment here) but in general a lot of the towns are very territorial toward each other because they're so small and the space between so large
So true. When I lived in NORTH Rock Springs, we were our own little community back then ('82-'84 {before the bust}).
As someone wanting to move to Wyoming what can you tell me about Evanston?
@@tylert820 Evanston is fine, I've fine. It's the of southwest Wyoming, specifically The Red Desert so be prepared for that, it's the closest the Salt Lake City if you like taking trips into a proper city, or if you plan on flying a lot that will cut down on your lay overs, Rock Springs doesn't fly directly to anywhere other than Salt Lake or Denver. Evanston has Wyoming state psychiatric hospital so the joke with the rest of that states is that's where the crazies live, but I live in Rock Springs and the rest of the state calls use meth town since we fall on the crossroads of 2 drug corridors, but all of the state has it's ups and downs, they're all great places to live depending on what you're looking for. Most of the picking on each other is more of a sibling rivalry thing, none of us really likes each other south west WY doesn't super like north west WY, the rangers don't really like the oil fielders, the oil fielders don't really like the game wardens. But we'll be damned if any out of staters talk smack about one of them to our face. Even Jackson it may be a pain in the ass, but it's our pain in the ass
@@hostile_prof so I’m from south Louisiana but I worked in NoDak for awhile so I’m not worried about the cold when we were looking at it we narrowed it down to 4 cities green river , Evanston , Cody or rock springs
@@hostile_prof we have kids so we want activities and education and don’t want to have to drive too incredibly far for school
To the incredible folk of Wyoming, what an amazing place. My family and I visited Laramie and beauty spots around. We come from the Countryside in what we call "The West country" in the United Kingdom. We very much enjoyed our visit to your beautiful country, Thank You all for your hospitality, Regards the Hamilton Family.
There's a reason we call Laramie Gem City. Glad you enjoyed it!
As a long time Wyoming local, who only recently moved to North Dakota, I love this video, it's like going home. But I might mention that one of the true hidden gems that you may want to check out is a place called South Fork which can be accessed in Cody. Also when traversing the state from Southeast to Northwest a run through Wind River Canyon just outside Thermopolis is well worth the experience.
Great video, great advice, though I might add to watch for Pedestrians when driving through Yellowstone, they seem to forget how close to the road they are when stopping to photograph wild life.
@Star Warden well all those rich people in South Fork can share that splendid beauty, and Wind River Canyon, especially once they get done with the bridge work on the Thermopolis side, along with Chief Joseph Highway are experiences unlike anything else. I just love Wyoming, there is far more to it than just Yellowstone. Sorry if you want to keep it such a secret, I just don't feel that way.
From a long time North Dakota resident I hope you enjoy it here.
@@williammerkel1410 thank you! The people have been great, here.
@@daf631 Make sure you check out the Little Missouri national grassland in North Dakota at some point. It's just so beautiful there.
@@cowboycody8094 the Painted Canyon in Western North Dakota was pretty awesome as well. I look forward to exploring North Dakota, and Minnesota as well.
I was born in Wyoming and spent my childhood there. Love the country out there. Had to laugh at your description of how talkative the locals are, because that fits my dad to the tee. He will start a conversation with anybody, and he's generally super helpful to everyone. I know for a fact from experience (both ways) that people in Wyoming will drive an hour out of their way to help someone who's stranded, etc. Or at least they did when I was a kid. Cell phones may have changed the equation since then.
That's where I should be.
A place where you can strike up a conversation.
Say anything to a stranger out here and they look at you like
"Stay away, freak!"
It's not California, it just filled with everyone from there.
“Don’t feed annoying children to the bears. It’s bad for their diet.”. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wyoming is definitely one of my fave State, way too underrated.
Thanks for enjoying our state!
Thank you for doing a See America First® campaign, starting with this wonderful series on my home state and town (Cheyenne). We moved here in 2011 from Portland Oregon and have not regretted it for a minute. Nice to see things that I routinely walk to on your show. I would like to bump into some of your viewers.
Such a beautiful state full of solid, great people!
Wyoming was by far one of my fav states I visited on my last road trip. Wish we had more time there. Beautiful, free, and so underrated. Also, I'm from Texas, and I live in Alberta, so it's almost blasphemy to say it but, the BEST steak I've ever had was from there.
Thanks for loving our state!
Wyoming is basically Alberta Junior
My best steak was across from a truck stop southeast of Cheyenne. The flavor !!
Bison chili looks really good.
I am from wyoming and I feel you did a great job on the video and im sure you will be welcome to come back again
Thank you kory
Born and raised in Gillette, Wyoming here and love the video. You nailed everything perfectly. Us Wyoming people still laugh about the kum&go it always has been and will forever be the biggest joke lol. Also am in full agreement with not telling us what to do. I couldn’t have said it better myself. So true about us all we don’t wanna here about what you do back home cuz guess what you’re not there anymore! Lol perfect video. Keep it up thank you for this!
Do you know andrew green? Hes also born and raised in Gillette. I'm currently in green river .
Exactly. Actually this video should be required viewing by every tourist as they enter our state. Every year we hear about tourists being mauled and gored because they tried to pet a bison in Yellowstone
The Kum n Go franchise bought out the old 7-11 stores years ago. I've made Gillette home about 4 times in my past. Sheridan is where I was born and raised....5th gen, too.
That sun is something fierce in Wyoming. I made the mistake of thinking I was fine without sunblock my first day there because it was in the 30s at night and only low 70s during the day. I got FRIED. Everyone should absolutely heed to that warning.
As a Wyomite, my favorite pastime is watching the bison stomp tourists.....
31.10.20. UK.Backroads US. Our Credentials Not Spell Chckd. This is
what the UK Police have told us can never be read by public..Firstly re
the films. When we saw the first few episodes this we were impressed But
just as with so many of the films on the Internet we started
thinkin,not just lookin. Here is what we know to be of value. Our
trainin was 12 yrs spent traipsin Cent London knockin at doors
axxompanied by victims of the establ. We got death threats from HM court
system and the US security orgs like Burns. They were the ones who shot
and beat up US Workers when they refused to Accept starvation wages..
We are still being subjected to violence by Police and we have endured
threats of violence by US embassy etc. The public are not much
different. We found 2.5 people who could be trusted. The friends we had
at BBC said- "Hide the Evidence Abroad" The indictment? 30000 avoid
deaths over 35 yrs. The press,.F-bk. twitter. yahoo etc destoy the
evidence. Heres our report on the films about backroads.The Daily Woo. How can this
man go around staring at abandoned buildings dwellings businesses
without asking the folks round there how they are coping and why the
people left there and even left valuable automobiles and trucks to stand
and rot. This character spent more time chattin to cows,steers, horses
than to the suffering folks. We noiticed that when he showed a "church"
it seemed to be in good shape. Aint that typical. Go look at parts of
poverty stricken Italy and what do we find but massive luxury buildings.
When we first were approached by victims we did not fully believe their
tales. Within two yrs we went to the giant HGQ of the Catholic Religion
in London and tried to tell them about all the evidence.,they could not
care less We went to that Catholic HQ because one of their "faithful"
supporters when he had an accident was offered 5 pence by a vicar as a
remedy for poverty.We went to five other religions and all politrical
orgs,wirth same result. We then found out trhat they are getting
handouts thro Govt and or Charity lotterty etc.We were getting threats
.Its all about compliance which keeps the Govt in place. When you add
sport,art ,drama you got a mirror image of 3rd Reich and Roman empire
PR. The kids are the scapegoats We have now found over 26 corrupt
Universities and no student responds. That also took place in 1933
Germany. The man doing these films needs to become more human rather
trhan play silly games in order to appease the public and get ticks..
When ever he did rarely, manage tro talk to someone the other person was
almost imposs to hear. How come? When he fills up with gas theres
rarely any view other that the gas hose. He spends ages trying to re
enact some crap violent or cop movies and seems to be engrossed with
that horrific scene. I reckon hes just usin PR to enhance viewing by
giving a clueless ands naive public what they want.How irresponsible.
Has he got kids? Our advice? Go do somethin useful. Go work for Trump or
Clintons.Theres an Amat Radio station Dallas who transmit every day at
8am to 10 am. 38.40 Bill N frends. They got sheds full of firearms.They
say the bad areas are all Democrat but we dont know if its true. We told
N Pilozi but no sign of reply. Dont worry about the public will you.
..We are just scum. But the virus is doing some payback. Whjat a shame
.Local Govt to us- "If Theres Anything Wrong With Local Govt The public
Must Go get a Lawyer" to communicate with the lawyer already paid
for.Appeasement and Manipulation aint workin.
Or bears maul tourist whats so hard to understand don't feed the bears bears are powerful predators I seen them flip a truck! There the hungry hungry hippos of North America they want to eat food and when they don't get food because they are all the food they will try to make you food!
When I lived in Rock Springs, my favorite hobby was watching tourists watch us 😂
Californians first I hope
Also do not bring your Segways. They will be used as target practice.
Totally recommend Sheridan Wyoming during the summer months. We have bed racing, Sheridan WYO Rodeo, street dance, and all kinds of fun stuff! I used to live there, so I can totally tell you some do’s and don’t’s to put in a video
I live in cody, we have some beautiful mountains and roads in my area going through the shoshone NF. Dont forget to bring your bear spray if you explore the back country.
My preferred bear spray has a minimum caliber that begins with a 4.
Montanan here... Great vid... Jackson Hole blew me away. Regarding the weather, as you mentioned it really is extreme. Montana and Wyoming hold almost all of the *world* records for largest and quickest temperature changes. Yellowstone can see snow in July and August -- it'll usually happen once or twice a summer, so it's not even abnormal or rare.
I remember driving across Wyoming and being a little wary about passing the semis because as soon as you come out of the wind shadow you get pulled immediately into the path of a much bigger vehicle!
The comments on this video from people in Wyoming are a better indicator of what they truly think of tourists and anyone from out of state.
I'm a South Carolinian. I've been to Wyoming and cell service is limited. I'm going back next year 2021 as a vacationer. Before I was a trucker and it's beautiful there. They pride themselves in that they still have only one area code.
This podcast is very informative! A couple of my podcasts were taken in Wyoming. My Adventures In Trucking. It can be warm during the day and cold at night and the wind can be fierce.
P.S. I've subscribed to your channel.
Couldn't agree more with all of these. I spent the better part of a month in Wyoming back in 2012 for a college camping trip. It is possibly my favorite U.S. state that I've visited.
I'll always remember when I went from Yellowstone to Badlands, and my GPS said to go way out of the way. But I noticed there was a road that goes straight between them, so I thought my GPS was confused and did that instead. Yeah, instead of driving 4 hours on the highway I spent the next 10 hours zig-zagging up and down mountains at 20mph...
Never thought a "Don't Do" list would make me even more excited to go there!! Thanks!
Always talk to us locals because like you said there is much more to wyoming and we really do like to help people try funding places like the little sandy, big sand, and bluecher creek also the red desert around wamsutter is full of things like the old man and the boy, the haystack (where you can find awesome fossils and even sharks teeth), and lots of other places to find history like the old forts that dot the state, and if ya happen to meet me ill be happy to show ya around 😀
"Funding" what free Money or Loan Sharks?
@@dead2selfShema well played typo man... well played.
Wyoming!
Stop the torture of children in your state!
Shut down Trinity Teen Solutions and Triangle Cross Ranch!
They have tortured boys and girls for 20 years now.
Enough!
Look in to it....END THIS
@@yukoncornileus4 where are you from sir?
Wyoming is likely my favorite state. First time I drove over togwatee pass and saw the tetons I cried a little. So beautiful. A 50 something man who had wanted to climb grand teton almost 40 years and finally saw it, too late for climbing.
Last time I was in Yellowstone it snowed. On July 4th.
Bison and elk should never be fed to tourists. They will not be able to go back to beef when they get home.
A few years ago there was a proposal to add cell towers in Yellowstone. Made me sick. Turn off the phone and enjoy the massive beauty.
Airports out west don't have wind socks. They have wind chains. You get used to hooking your foot under the car door when you open it to keep the wind from breaking it off the hinges.
Wyoming's two nicest areas are around Lander and around Sheridan, but there are long stretches of bareness here as well. This bareness is, in large part, because it's cheaper to build and maintain roads in the bare areas. So, the best way to travel in Wyoming is in a four-wheel-drive vehicle with high clearance. The best sights and landscapes in this state are not in any brochure. Discovery happens by just taking an exit and driving on dirt roads. Don't do this from October through May unless you've been there before, regardless of your vehicle. Random travel on dirt roads is a pastime here, but be completely prepared with tents, food, water, etc.
I live in Casper and I can easily travel to a place with no humans from where I stand to the horizon in any direction in no more than an hour.
Cowboy culture is big, but it's not the only culture here. We have a small, but vibrant, arts culture and we have a large oilfield culture. Because of that oilfield culture, it's best to ditch that Southern accent at the state line. It's one of the few things that will get you treated differently here (the history of that is complicated).
Finally, unless you eat the local fare, which would include steaks and what most people would call southwestern cuisine, it's hard for restaurants or grocery stores to obtain fresh produce. If you're used to living in a city, don't chance anything exotic here unless you're in Jackson (where you will pay for the privilege) or, perhaps, Cheyenne and Laramie (which are close enough to the Colorado supply chains). This is not a gourmet-food destination.
Anyhow, I like your video. Cheyenne and Jackson are the top tourist-friendly places in the state, but most Wyomingites just never go to either one and wouldn't recommend them. I'm fourth generation in this state and over 50. I do enjoy your European travel videos and have been to many of the places you make videos about since I speak French and German (that I learned in Wyoming schools) and have traveled and lived widely there and the Far East. Many Wyomingites are travelers. I can practice my Mandarin right here in Casper anytime with either native speakers or people who have lived in China and come back. It's the same with French and German. It doesn't look like that on the surface, I know.
I love Lander. It’s so pretty here. Everything you said is completely true!
The majority of the state is barren. South Eastern Wyoming almost completely lacks trees the second you cross the state line. 95% of the residents are conservative Christian. Cheyenne has more of a military culture than a cowboy one.
@@Wesley296 My town has a great art scene, and a couple really good restaurants. There are a fair number of LGBTQ+ folks here as well, and nobody’s in their business. People around here are not in your face about religion. That was WAY worse in the South where I grew up. We are pretty much as live and let live kind of place. I love it here.
@@Wesley296 It's true that the southeastern part of the state is a huge desert and that the state, in general, is arid. I'd say 60% conservative Christian , though, and that the military culture is common everywhere here.
Shalom, Any Hebrew / Yiddish speakers their in Casper?
Mr. Wolters, thanks for the great video! My husband and I were looking for a great Wyoming travel video, and we found myriads of short "commercials" and a PBS show and a STUPID reality show. We were about to give up. Your travel vids are better advertisement for Wyoming than most of the "official" Wyoming videos. Also thanks for keeping lots of humor and scenic footage with the smart warnings and travel tips. We really appreciate you and your family!
Another tip as someone who was born and raised a Wyomingite: don’t expect most hotels to be five stars/fancy hotels that big cities have. Most of them are 3 stars at the highest.
Fun to listen to someone else's perspective. I think it is pretty accurate. Also if you want to come to wy and you have not had a lot of experience driving on snow and ice only come July August or September. And you still might end up having snow those months. October through basically June is our winter months. If traveling any other times always check road reports and weather. If going over any mountain pass it can be bad weather anytime so always look. In the winter always have something in your car to eat drink and stay warm in very low temperatures. it literally can save your life.
Really great advice. One more don't....Whenever passing a Wyoming rest stop, don't forget to ask everybody if they might need to stop. same goes for big truck strops and "Kum and Go". The distances between services can be large....especially for the kids.
We are looking forward to visiting Wyoming this next year. Thanks for the heads up. Looks like a beautiful state.
Granted we are a hunting family so the idea of bison or elk or venison isn't strange to hear. The thing is, if people like or even love beef, they will LOVE bison or elk! It's far healthier and way more lean that beef. We've not had beef in our freezer for years and it's rarely we'll have it unless we head out to a steakhouse that doesn't have anything but.
One of the way's I've found to get converts is to make an elk or bison stew or chili! The guests will think it's beef, they don't find out until after dinner is long over so their head doesn't start playing games with their stomach!
Great video and tips. Wyoming is calling my name more and more as I keep watching these videos.
This an interesting take on travel. Never really think about the don'ts. Thank you!
The first statement is the most relevant since, as with most Westerners, the folks in Wyoming are independent and don’t like someone who has been around for 30 seconds telling us what to do. As they saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. The parts about the weather being changeable and the wind being dangerous is spot on. A few years ago I was hauling a stock trailer carrying horse from Casper back to New Mexico and while it was only breezy in Casper, by the time I was 20 miles north of Wheatland it was blowing 45 miles per hour and gusting to 60. The highway patrol diverted high profile traffic off the highway and I spend four hours in Wheatland waiting to get back on the highway. The folks in Wyoming are awesome and I've always been made to feel like I'm part of big family when I visit my friends in Wyoming.
I live in an area where Kum & Gos are common and I still occasionally chuckle at the name.
Not to be crude, but the locals call it "masterbate and urinate"...
@@connieholthaus957 gross
I'm beyond surprised to see you were here in Wyoming, about 13 months ago... Thank you for a great, honest, pleasant review... Sound advice!!! It's a good idea to keep winter jacket nearby, all year round!!! Very special place to live!!! I was born in Laramie, have lived elsewhere as an adult, always find my way home, with good reason!!!
I am way impressed how well you covered everything. I love walking near the hot springs when it's cold. The hot air that comes in from the springs feels amazing. My wife and I's honeymoon was at Yellowstone.That gas station is hilarious. We have a gas station where my wife grew up called the G Spot.
that is hilarious!!!
I respect Wolter a lot. I wish his channel much success.
Thank you
You covered a lot of ground in this one, this is useful info for any tourist and I hope you had a great time here. These animals are not zoo animals, I cannot say it enough. Today was bright and sunny and 80, tomorrow will be snowy and cold and windy. Even the locals that try to tell other locals what to do will get a cold shoulder here but when we need help in agricultural communities, we put our differences aside to help each other wether we like each other or not and that's something to be said. You might think people here may be unintelligent or stubborn but you have to understand the culture and not many can wrap they're head around it. I guess we just put up with each other but also understand each other's background, that's the best way I can describe it. We're a community that would rather take care of each other than have the govmt get involved. Yep were pretty independent, take care.
Seriously...that snow we got last month was insane. It broke a ton of branches off my trees. It was a tree apocalypse in my yard. The tree guys were slammed for weeks. My neighbor had 4 huge trees come down.
But I do want to move there after my retirement. I was from Lincoln, Nebraska, then Houston, Texas....cold and hot weather ain't bringing me down. Love to explore my new future territory which I'm calling home soon in 2025.
Very nice and informative video. Lots of great advice and then the locals chime in on the comments. Y'all are friendly indeed. Every year I keep saying ... this is the year I get to visit Wyoming. Then something comes up and I don't get to visit. Well, God willing I'm aiming to make this a reality in 2021. Thanks ever so much for the great advice. ~Sherrie in South Carolina
"Don't tell them what to do!" I like that!
Funny...I just realized that I have lived in every state that borders on Wyoming, but never in the state itself! In Nebraska, I was only 6 miles away. I have seen lots and lots of Wyoming, and it's a beautiful state. As a history nerd, it's also plays a crucial part in America's story. Great vid, enjoyed it.
I live in northern nj 45 miles from NYC. I regularly have bears in my backyard.
Yes, but in Wyoming they have GRIZZLY BEARS...whole nuther beast...😳
Congratulations.
Aaah i really wanna taste that elk burger or bison beef...someday i will come here.....super stunning place.....what a bless for a people living in here...and i know people in wyoming are great and friendly people...greetings from Malaysia
Wyoming also doesn't plow and de-ice their roads in the winter. Drove from Salt Lake to Denver once. I-80 up to the Wyoming border was plowed, salted, and sanded and you could drive at a normal speed. Cross over into Wyoming and the road turns into a sheet of ice for the next 200 miles. Stopped to get gas and some girl working in the store said basically Wyoming is too cheap to plow their roads.
Depends on the part of Wyoming you are in. 287 from Laramie to Colorado is plowed and 80 all around Laramie is kept plowed but around Elk Mountain isn't and parts past Cheyenne aren't its also about how fast the snow is falling and the wind is blowing. There are alot variables into the plowing of all the roads.
It's not that we're too cheap to plow our roads, it's that it's too expensive to have the snowplows running 24/7, because that's what we would need with the wind whipping it all over the place.
@@kleppto9596 I’m glad we don’t salt the roads. Tears up the vehicles. It’s a good idea to have a 4WD though. And we do plow (a little bit 😂).
Agree with the depends on what part of Wyoming you are in as well as the can’t plow and salt 24/7. I live in northeastern Wyoming and I-90 is plowed regularly but I also use to not live in town (about 14 miles away). I have had to drive into town in the winter to get one of my kids from an after school activity and the roads will have been plowed and sand/salted only to drive back home half an hour later on roads that don’t look like a plow had been on them at all.
@@a.wandering.hobbit42 i live outside of town and have that issue too. Its just how things are. Winds are great!
I once lived in Cheyenne for about a year. So I enjoyed watching your video review of Wyoming.
I bought my America the Beautiful pass in August. I got it when I went to visit Devil's postpile and Rainbow falls in Mammoth, Ca. It also got me into Yosemite 2 weeks ago and I'm going again tomorrow. That pass is gonna save me so much money. 💜 Hetch Hetchy is next.
Your spot on sir!! I have lived in Casper For 20 years. And you are exactly right!!!
Jackson is more like Aspen now which is a terrible shame for those of us who remember how it was in the 70s and 80s.
Yes, it has become a liberal Democrat mecca. I will never return. It is no longer Wyoming.
It's become a enclave of well to do and rich people. It reminds me of what Vail became.
I love your videos. Electronic music is not needed and your videos soothe my nerves, and your dialogue is great too!
Wyoming has always interested me. I've never been there but the sheer size, the ruggedness, the nature, just everything. I'd really want to have a second home in Wyoming, to be able to truly get away from it all.
Friendly advise. If your not from here. Just get a summer home. Because the winters will kick your a$$
I love horses 🐎 and Wyoming. Grew up in Wisconsin. Long cold winter snow and wind. Summer short and pleasant. Fall colors on trees, chill, crisp air. Not as sunny like Wyoming. God likes variety 🙏 America 🇺🇸 the Beautiful. 🤠
@@nancykostrzak9275 I live in Wyoming and also was raised in Wisconsin. The transition wasn’t that bad. As long as you go to an area with trees. I live in Alpine Wy and don’t think I could live anywhere else.
I've been binge-watching videos to learn about travel in Europe and had no doubt you were sharing good info. After having lived in WY a decade and seeing what a good job you did explaining Wyoming, I'm even more impressed. It was really nice to see all the footage.
"You're way tastier than a chicken sandwich" 😂 this guy is great
Hi there
I was there 1985.
Had a good time
Have a good day be safe
Awesome!
Wyoming is such a great beautiful state and everyone I met was so nice and accommodating! Of all of the western states Wyoming reminded me the most of cowboys, ranchers etc. and yes I went to a rodeo in Cody-a great little( not too little) town! I am glad you brought up the gas stations-whenever I am on the road(especially very rural areas) I fill up every chance I get even if I am at 1/4 tank better safe than sorry! Great video!
Yeah, always fill up especially when venturing away from the interstate
@@woltersworld living in Wyoming, I never get below a half tank. Made a 15 minute drive once that ended up an overnighter stuck in a blizzard. Thankfully I had filled up before heading out.
Cody has the best rodeos in my opinion! -Wyomingite
In 1962, we were having a pick-up steer roping contest just north of Cheyenne on AUGUST 16th. The big discussion was whether we had just been shut down that day by the last snow storm of last winter, or the first snow storm of next winter.
Lived in Cheyenne since 1974, we never ever put winter cloths/jackets/gloves/mittens and hats away. You never know. Now Wyoming is the least populated of all the states, yep, even Alaska has more people living in it then Wyoming. Altitude wise yes its high and dry, so drink lots of water, and take it easy till you get used to it. As for the town of Jackson, we in Wyoming call it Jackson Hole, and we all know what town is being talked about. As for the valley its in, that's the Snake River Valley. As for roads there aren't many. So you drive on what you have too. This also means that Bicycle's have the same right too all public roads as cars do.
We in Wyoming call Jackson a liberal craphole.
@@larrysmith6797 I am sure it is too. All those rich liberals crapping in Jackson. Pollutants.
Oh My Goodness, Been from Wyomin' my whole life and Dude you nailed it. Glad you had a good time and glad you figured it out!
Just a Wyomingite here to see if it's good advice.
Update: great advice
This was very helpful information, and I think the video was awesome 👌 THANK YOU
When I was in Montana 4 years ago I still kept paper maps.
GPS is a fine thing, but it's always good to have a backup.
Thank u for this video. I live in the big horn basin 90 miles east of Yellowstone. And about 90% of the search and rescue calls we get here is somebody following their GPS and it took them on a backroad up the mountain and stuck. So the GPS and research on ur routes is most important
Lived there for two years. Don't go even one mile an hour over the speed limit in a small town!!
Especially if you're out of state. They are insular communities and will ticket you just so you will pay.
@@florkyman5422 "Insular"? Then it's obvious you haven't any respect for such communities in the first place. If you and other ignorant people can't respect the speed limits in the little towns, just fly into Jackson Hole and don't drive... I think that's one of the most ignorant comments I've encountered today, though it seems to be the prevailing mentality these days.
@@johnniewelbornjr.8940 lol
On that note- be aware that city speed limits tend to be 20 or 30, not 25 or 35 a lot of other states (like Utah lol)
@@VeerleTakino They are 25 or 35 in Wyoming.
The interstate here is 80.
Several trips to Yellowstone in late May through June that I have not been snowed on. Be prepared and it will be grand!
As with a lot of places with national parks and forests, there’s a lot of places where you can camp for free or pretty cheap. Like even if it’s “full” don’t be afraid to go in and ask around the campground because people will probably let you set up next to them if there’s some space.
Will be visiting Wyoming soon, Im from the tropics in the South Pacific. Thanks for the don'ts
Glad to see this vid out. These are things I grew up learning (but I grew up around Ennis and Bozeman, just over the state line LOL).
That safety stuff is critical, in so many ways. Heck, in the local paper in the summer, there were always stories of tourists who did stupid things. Like the couple who talked their toddler into getting his picture taken "With Yogi Bear", plopped the kid on the bear's back, and watched in horror as the kid was killed. Or the morons who don't think about how unpredictable a bison can be, and walk out into the middle of a herd and set up a tripod to take photos (seen that one myself, on Fountain Flats). Or the spoiled brat who threw their toy away into the Sunset Crater in a tantrum then raged for Dad go fetch it back for them. Didn't care if dad boiled to death long as they got their toy back.
I'm a senior citizen now, early 70s, I was born when my dad was 50 yrs old. He was a carpenter by trade, and during the depression, in the 30s, he and some of his friends worked those WPA crews that built all those walks for safety in Yellowstone, as well as many other constructed features. So he knew all the safety issues and taught us -- and as a side benefit, he knew all the nifty stuff that was off the main loop that it would be cool to visit.
Weatherwise, we were the same in Montana. Like the balmy April morning when I was in high school, temps abt 70 when I left to walk to school in a sundress and sandals, clouded over by the time I got there, snow falling by the time home room checkin was done at 8:30, 2 feet on the ground by the time school let out at 3:45. Walked home in sundress and sandals. through that.
Had to laugh about eateries actually serving Rocky Mountain Oysters. Poor donkeys. Heehawing in soprano just to feed the tourists. 'Course as a kid, my dad used to take an elk every winter, and we used to have "wapiti chops" for dinner when he did.
Wow. I can’t believe someone put their kid on a bear! I hope the parents were charged with something. When did that happen? Maybe they were from Russia.
Thank you for all the great content all these years!
