Sherman's Travel

Wyoming — Home to the world's first national park (Yellowstone) and the US's first national monument (Devil's Tower), Wyoming is teeming with activity, despite being the nation's least populous state (it has a population of only 520,000, compared to the 36.6 million of California, the most inhabited state). Backcountry skiing, hiking, mountain climbing, and white river rafting, against a backdrop of stunning natural vistas, draw adventure seekers of all ages. Historic trails, military outposts, and dude ranches give a glimpse into Wyoming's Western frontier roots, while open-to-the-public summer powwows – complete with ceremonial dances and colorful tribal garb – celebrate its Native American heritage. City slickers (and celebs) looking to unwind flock to the luxury wilderness getaways of Jackson Hole.
