Summary and Frequenly Asked Questions:

Although Wyoming is well known for its prairie land and wide, sweeping plains, the western half of the state is densely populated with mountains. From the famous Grand Tetons to the Wind River Range and the Bighorn Mountain Range, there are hundreds of beautiful mountains in Wyoming. Some of them, like the Missouri Buttes, require only an afternoon and a sturdy pair of shoes to conquer, but others, like Gannett Peak, take days or even a week to complete, and require a full range of climbing and trekking equipment. A diverse cast of wildlife, ranging from bison to bears to wolves, complete the scene here, as a mountain hike in Wyoming will never fail to impress.
