Review:
Ten Sleep acquired its name by being “ten sleeps” between two Sioux camps.
This cattle and sheep ranching town sits at the western end of the 47-mile Cloud Peak Skyway Scenic Byway that runs through Bighorn National Forest and the Bighorn Mountains to Buffalo, Wyoming.
This is the place to experience dude ranching at its finest.
Other popular activities include rock and mountain climbing, horseback riding, hiking, boating, and four-wheeling. During winter, visitors can snowmobile, ski, snowboard, and ice climb.
The Bighorn Mountains are visible from Thermopolis to Shell Creek at Signal Cliff, a historic point for Native American smoke signals.
