Wyoming Travel
Here are some highlights of my travels to Wyoming:
Road Trips (PDFs)
To Iowa and Back (including Yellowstone) Road Trip 2024
I made my annual trip to the Midwest to see family, with stops at Colorado's Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve and in St. Louis as I headed east. Heading back west, I visited the Badlands and Black Hills in South Dakota, and I finally had a nice visit to Yellowstone National Park after other attempts in recent years were thwarted by early winter storms.

To Iowa and Back Road Trip 2023
I headed out to Iowa and back to visit family, making a number of sightseeing stops along the way.
Wyoming and Northeast Utah Road Trip 2023
I made a return trip to Wyoming to explore more of the state. On the way home, I stopped in Vernal, Utah for a couple days so that I could visit nearby Dinosaur National Monument and check out several rock art sites near Rangely, Colorado.
Wyoming and Southeast Montana Road Trip 2022
Plans to visit Yellowstone National Park once again went awry due to weather - flooding, this time - but I still headed for Wyoming and southeastern Montana to see a number of other sites on my list, most related to archaeology, dinosaurs and the western emigrant trails that passed through Wyoming.
Great Plains Road Trip 2021
Fully vaccinated for COVID-19 but sporting a medical boot for a broken bone in my foot, I set off on a road trip to Iowa to see family. On the drive out there and much moreso on the drive home, I checked out the scenery and a number of interesting stops in the Great Plains state.
Cross Country Relatives Road Trip 2019
On a cross-country road trip to see family, I checked out a mix of places that featured geology sites, archaeology sites, dinosaur sites, Republicans, nuclear missile sites, corny sites and the Jolly Green Giant.
Cross Country Relatives Road Trip 2017
In October 2017 I drove from Las Vegas to Illinois and Iowa to visit some relatives, padding the drive with some sightseeing days in New Mexico, Texas, Illinois, Nebraska, Wyoming and Utah.
