Wyoming information
From the bucking broncos of the state's license plates to the Million Dollar
Cowboy Bar on Jackson's town square, Wyoming relishes its image as a last
bastion of the romantic American West. This is a state where people really do
make their living astride horses. But Wyoming is just as well known as an
outdoor paradise, home to the world's first national park, Yellowstone, as well
as to little-visited wilderness areas, national forests, and even a vast
national grassland.
Stretching from the high plains to the Rocky Mountains, Wyoming ranks ninth
among the U.S. in size and last in population, with fewer than a half-million
people in a state the size of the former West Germany. Wyoming has three times
as many cattle as people, and even the once-endangered pronghorn antelope nearly
outnumbers human beings--although this may be hard to believe when you're
inching along in a midsummer Yellowstone traffic jam. It's important to remember
that, although Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks are definitely worth
seeing, there's a big, uncrowded state beyond Wyoming's marquee destinations.
Wyoming has six state-designated tourism regions. In the far northwest
corner, you'll find Yellowstone country and Grand Teton country, taking in the
two famous national parks. Devils Tower-Buffalo Bill country spans the northern
third of Wyoming, including the lively tourist town of Cody, the Big Horn
Mountains, and the western edge of the Black Hills. Jackson Hole-Jim Bridger
country, the west-central region, covers the area where 19th-century mountain
men met to trade beaver pelts and tall tales. Oregon Trail-Rendezvous country
parallels the North Platte River and the route used by tens of thousands of
frontier pioneers; it also includes most of the only Indian reservation in a
state that was once central to Native American life. Wyoming's southern third
traverses Medicine Bow-Flaming Gorge country, a region filled with railroad lore
and off-the-beaten-path scenic byways.
Wyoming took its name from a shortened version of two Delaware Indian words,
mecheweami-ing, which mean "at the big plains." The area has been occupied
for at least 12,000 years; in recent centuries, Wyoming was home to such Plains
Indian tribes as the Arapaho, Blackfeet, Cheyenne, Nez Perce, Sioux, Shoshone,
and Ute, among others. John Colter, an alumnus of the Lewis and Clark
Expedition, was among the first Anglo-American visitors, exploring the
Yellowstone area in 1807. His reports of the weird geothermal phenomena in the
region led to it being nicknamed "Colter's Hell."
Fur trappers and missionaries made other early 19th-century forays into
Wyoming. By the late 1840s, the trickle became a river of humanity, as tens of
thousands of people moved through the region on the Oregon, California, and
Mormon trails. The nomadic newcomers and the Native Americans got along well
during most of this time. But as pressures on the Indians increased, so did
tensions. Wyoming was the setting for many key 19th-century battles between
Native Americans and the U.S. Cavalry.
In 1869, the Wyoming territorial legislature became the first in the world to
grant women the right to vote, which is why Wyoming is nicknamed "the Equality
State." Ester Hobart Morris of South Pass City became the first female justice
of peace in the U.S. just a few months later, and in 1924, Nellie Tayloe Ross
became the nation's first elected woman governor to take office.
In many ways, Wyoming remains a difficult place to live, geographically
isolated and prone to weat her extremes. But if you ever get to wondering why
anyone would call this place home, one look at Wyoming's clear blue skies, open
plains, and towering mountain peaks should put the question to rest.
