Although it’s the nation’s most sparsely populated state, Wyoming is a nearly untouched wonder. The northwest corner of the state is where most of its immense beauty resides, whether that’s the sharp peaks of the Grand Tetons or the colorful hot springs at Yellowstone. Grandeur can be found all across the 44th state, however, like along the breathtaking Beartooth Highway, near the monolith known as Devils Tower or in the scenic Bighorn Canyon. Its cowboy and ranching heritage still goes strong too, on display every summer at Cheyenne’s Frontier Days or at the world’s only nightly rodeo in Cody.
