As a well traveled individual born in the northeast and raised in the southeast (highly populated areas), I lived in Wyoming for a few years. Wyoming (as a residence) is not for everyone, but we all have different tastes and preferences. Although I lean more towards the left politically (ok alot more), I found the locals to be very warm and friendly. I lived in Converse and Johnson Counties (talk about rural - but I loved it!). The landscape is the most diverse I've ever seen. There are good paying jobs throughout the state in which you don't need a 4-year degree (but don't let this stop you from obtaining one!). Education is of greater importance in Wyoming than in most states (good for those starting a family), and educators are compensated above average. In summary - WYOMING - Great things are happening there!
I live in Teton County. I recognize so much of the landscape in this video, which i have hiked, paddled, climbed. Including Gannet Peak (0:42), which I have climbed eleven times.
I grew up in the big Wyo at almost a mile above sea level. I went to school in eastern Iowa which is only 600 feet above sea level. Winters in Iowa are worse. Yeah, I know... everybody thinks: West, Rocky mountains, Continental Divide; winter there must be cold!! Well it is, but not as cold as Iowa in winter. Trust me, There's how cold it is, then there's how cold it feels!
That's right! Before the Lincoln Highway was considered being built you had the Oregon trail, California trail, and Morman trails running through Casper as Wyoming's original main street.
Wow, that historian Larry Morris is an exact vocal doppelganger of the famous film critic Roger Ebert. When he started speaking I had to do a double take there. LOL
I would suggest doing your research about the different areas of Wyoming and driving through the whole state. I say this because you may be more keen to certain types of topography, as Wyoming is very diverse. The old saying goes, 'we are a product of our surroundings'. I enjoy being close to the mountains in a rural setting, so I found Buffalo was a perfect fit. If you ever go, stop by the Occidental Hotel for live bluegrass on Thursdays nights...good times!
yes in fact I am. I happen to live near this area but they're talking about. something that was interesting was how it explains some of the names such as the Hoback river in the Hoback Canyon.
Yes indeed, Wyoming has some cold winters, but sure is beautiful other times of year. Great if you enjoy the outdoors & scenic beauty. Outside of Casper a little SE along #220 and N Platte River is nice area with homes sitting on scenic sites from a couple acres to many acres. Close to town, but in the country with space between you & neighbors. Travel thru Wy every summer.
Yes. I did not know about Robert Stuart, fascinating. Similarities with John Rae who explored the Canadian Arctic and found the North West Passage on foot. ruclips.net/video/Q4EbbH5mZzU/видео.html
History always enriches the curious. I know I'll never make it to Wyoming .The books of c.j.box brought me to that documentary and I, for one ,will not bemoan that stroke of luck.
bighands69 " good republican country" what the hell does that even mean? And "no mass immigration" well gee, maybe think for a second why Wyoming is the least populated state(certainly not the smallest in acres though) and that isn't changing. It's not a good sign that no one wants to move there.... I can see that you love Wyoming, and that's great. It really is a gorgeous state, but that does not make it a good place to live for everyone(yes that means not just wealthy white land owners). Plus, like most red states, they take much more aid from the Federal government in terms of dollars, than they provide to the federal government in terms of taxes. So it's just a big taker state. The national park system(federal government) is the largest money maker and job provider for your state when you consider all the tourism that surrounds the NPS. Once again, takers. I'm ok with that, but I would think you should have a problem if I am to assume your viewpoints based on your comments. Wyoming will be great when, and if it becomes "good AMERICAN country."

It's a great state to live in, better than where I came from
When you’ve lived a big piece of your life in Wyoming, you leave a piece of your heart there. Wyoming really is big & wonderful❣️

Everybody we have a liberal here.
Thanks.

C.J.Box brought me here.
Thanks RUclips.
I Hope no one was hurt by this horse kick? Regards
South Pass!
Nice *kick* at the end
Yeah. It sure sounded like that hoof connected with metal and glass. I hope the cameraman was OK!
Is anyone here actually interested in this story they are telling?
yes in fact I am. I happen to live near this area but they're talking about. something that was interesting was how it explains some of the names such as the Hoback river in the Hoback Canyon.

wow so beautiful
Wyoming is the reddest of red states. There are small pockets of open-minded people here, but living here is hard. It's besr to just visit.

You mean for democrats.
Wyoming is good republican country were there are no liberals dictating to people, No mass immigration and no ghettos.
bighands69 Looks like my kind of place, then!

So conservatives are not "open-minded"? (Whatever that even means, exactly.)
Bigot, much? LOL!

Wyoming will be great when, and if it becomes "good AMERICAN country."
