Sure is. I would have liked to fly the drone more, but as the name includes, there was a lot of wind! Thanks for watching and hope you’ll subscribe and check out our other similar videos. 😀
I grew up here in Rock Springs and have spent a lot of time in both Saratoga and Thermopolis. It’s a great place in the world to explore, I have lived here for 45 year’s and haven’t seen it all, it’s always exciting to discover something new in your back yard.
Wyoming people have been taking care of this state for years we live and work hard here yes I said work we our very independent and enjoy our freedoms that we fight hard to keep we are completely self sufficient and self supporting and we are very protective of everything in this state from the way we make a living to how our children are taught so please keep this in mind
Great video. I’ve been to thermop, wind river canyon and bighorns. Absolutely beautiful! And honestly I enjoyed it more than Yellowstone. Also Buffalo bill state park is really beautiful too. Like you, I didn’t get to spend near the amount of time I wanted to. My ultimate goal in life is to move there.
Thank you! Yes, so many great areas that are lesser known and rival the big parks. Nice, I’ll have to save Buffalo Bill. Best of luck on moving there someday and if you haven’t already, please subscribe for more stuff like this. We are in Montana right now.
I know I’m not the only one who is thinking this but while I do appreciate the fact that you like the Big Horn Mountains please don’t talk them up too much. I grew up camping in and riding horses in the Big Horns and the one thing that ruins places like these is publicity. While I was growing up we could go up there for a week at a time and not see anyone else on the mountain. That is not possible any more because of the publicity these mountains receive. Please enjoy the mountains but try not to publicize them too much. Otherwise, take care of yourselves.
Hey Brent, you’re not. I had a healthy conversation with someone awhile back in the comment section. The long term goal here to to get the general public more aware of the thousands of places we have to recreate so that we spread out more and don’t have 96% of people going to just Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. I definitely respect that you enjoy these places and a huge portion of that is due to the lack of crowds. Hopefully videos like this open peoples eyes to the millions of acres of amazing places we have to recreate in this country! Thanks for watching and for your comment. ☺️
I was born in Laramie and Thermop was my favorite place in the world when I was a kid. We'd always stay in the Days Inn with all the hunting stuff and trophies in the lobby. There was a Creature From the Black Lagoon pinball machine that me and my dad lost a lot of quarters to. We went every year and Star Plunge was the highlight. That hot spring water always felt so great. Something about the sulfur smell
Wow, I love hearing this! Sounds like some great memories to cherish. We loved exploring the area and definitely hope to return. Hot springs are so nice. Hope you’ll subscribe and maybe tune in to a few more 😊
Thank you! This was wonderful. I was looking for videos about Wyoming to share with British TH-cam reactors and this one is wonderful. Especially since you visited Snowy Range, my favorite place and near my family ranch now run by my cousins. I am stuck in Colorado, missing home!
Glad you loved it! And yes, share away! The Snowy Range would definitely be worth returning to. Please subscribe to our channel if you haven’t already and you might also enjoy our South Dakota video! th-cam.com/video/uc5cDFXyHk0/w-d-xo.html
Stuck in north Idaho and have been missing my home State of Wyoming, for almost 50 yrs. However, the cold, wind and poverty, have kept me away. It's very sad when one has to live in a place where you have to work or be homeless as a single, senior citizen. I waited too long.
Thanks for sharing that perspective. Hopefully there are things about Idaho that you’ll and can enjoy since that’s where life ended up putting you. Best wishes and thanks for watching. Feel free to subscribe for more travel videos and we have many other similar videos.
I was born in Laramie, I have backpacked all over the Snowyrange Mountains. If you have a day take the the trail between Browns Peak and the Snowy Range and you can see some of the most beautiful glacier lakes that look bottomless. There’s a trail to the top of Snowy Range but me and my brother took a difficult way up
Coming down the W side of the Medicine Bows, go S thru Encampment and take 70 over to Baggs. about 2 miles S into Colorado, County 4 heads west, eventually becoming WY 25, then 430, and its a great way to get from Baggs to Rock Springs 'off the beaten path'.
That Wind River Canyon awesome..I camped at the lower Boysen campground and drove it three times in my van and twice on my moto . STUNNING. Worth a mention is the Buffalo Creek Road which is the first two right turns exiting the canyon at the bottom (river right for paddlers) ...first road is paved then next turn is gravel ...BEAUTIFUL along those red rock bands goes for miles and miles.
Love it! That sounds awesome. Buffalo Creek Road, I should save that one in case we end up back out there sometime. Thanks for the comment! Don’t forget to subscribe if you haven’t already!
Heard of or been to all of these awesome places. Grew up playing in Big Horns (Sheridan) and much of my adult life playing in the Snowies! Gotta watch out when you cool off in the river at the hobo pool during the hot summer months: rattlesnakes like to keep cool too!!
My stomping grounds! The bighorns are one of the best kept secrets. I live central between the Bighorns and the Black Hills. I couldn’t live anywhere else. Meadowlark lake has many childhood memories!
Nice! Absolutely. I don’t mean to spoil any secrets, trust trying to open peoples eyes to how many beautiful places there are in our country and that we can spread out! Thanks for watching and I hope you’ll subscribe to support the channel. We have plenty of other videos you might enjoy. One about Utah and Colorado that are quite similar to this one. Even a South Dakota video too. 😀
Nice video! I've been to all of them! I lived in WY for 17 years. Tetons is my fav n Snowy's come close. Yellowstone's been ruined by too many tourists.
Thank you, Elaine! Love that. Yes, the Tetons are stunning. Yellowstone is a place I will only return in the shoulder seasons! Hope you will subscribe. About to put out a similar video about Utah! Did one about Colorado recently as well.
Thanks you showed them off at their best ! During the 60s hippies from California came flocking to Wyoming & Montana for the wonderful open living and froze to death in their campers along the roadways. Beprepared ! That wild open country is unforgiving!
Thanks for memories of Meadowlark Lake. My family took an epic camping trip in 1960...Parents, 5 kids 6>18 and the family dog, Pudgy. We came upon the lodge on Meadowlark Lake late at night with my Mom driving the station wagon with pop up Higgins trailer from Buffalo on the really narrow road at that time. Horrible drop offs and pitch black. We crashed in a big cabin and awoke to being right on the lake with blue skies. Wonderful time. Instead of racing off we spent a couple days horseback riding the the fire tower and becoming official 'Chipmunks". Still looks familiar but there was no ski lodge at that time.
I used to get stationed in Belle Fourche, SD on temporary duty assignments from my regular duty station in Wilder, ID. We used to drive from Belle Forche to Powell and Cody, WY on 14A out of Dayton, WY into the Big Horns. Coming back over to Belle Fourche we called it OH MY GOD HIGHWAY because you came around the pass and you were thousands of feet up. The Big Horns also have the Yellowstone River and lots of camping. I've also been to all of the places on your video and for my money Wyoming is as good as it gets.
Born In Lander, raised in Saratoga, I have spent plenty of nights at the hot pool or breaking curfew and going there and then running from the one cop on duty..... Or going there after hitting the Rustic, Wolf, Whistle Pig and Lazy River (now Duke's). Or going to the Hot Pool after working long hours. Grew up hunting the Snowies, know damn near every inch of them. Hiked up to the top of Medicine Bow Peak from Twin Lakes. I've been to Thermop more than I can count. Pretty much everywhere you showed I've been at least once, except for that Meadowlark Lake, never been there.
Very cool! Sounds like a lifetime of fond memories. Meadowlark is a nice spot. Thanks for sharing and we hope you’ll subscribe and check out a few more of our videos. 😊
Interesting. Never heard of it, but sounds like a good preventative. We don’t have the RV anymore (or any vehicle for that matter), but thanks! We hope you’ll subscribe and maybe check out a few more of our videos. 😊
I lived in Wyoming for a short time. Worked on a dude ranch near Sheridan where I studied wildflowers and traveled a long distance up a snowy trail to save my puppy from coyotes. Great memories.
I live in north central Florida and have drove to and back from Wyoming 3times I have been to 3 of the places on your list but I'm a bit more of the back road type and have been to places that most people would not go the adventure is always more important than the destination I'm not your average interstate guy I try very hard to take non pavement roads lots of map studies make for awesome sights along the traveled path ...thanks for sharing yalls videos
Hey Matthew, thanks for the comment! We’re UCF graduates! That’s awesome. Always fun getting on dirt roads and we would’ve done more of it if we had a better vehicle for it. Hope you’ll subscribe and watch some other videos!
Yes I have been to all and a few more. 40 year resident, and still exploring!! p.s. you need to work on the sound consistency on your video but I enjoyed it anyway !~
I live in Cheyenne, and you forgot one one. The Medicine Wheel, up in the North east corner, if I remember right. Only been there once but its kinda creepy. Pinedale, great mountain man museum. And lots of other neat stuff to do in that area. That's it for now. Have fun, travel safe.
Thank you SO much! Love hearing that. Feel free to offer any constructive criticism or things you like that you want to see more of! We’ll do our best. 😀
Thank you for showing parts of Wyoming we are unlikely to be able to see. We have visited the state and are fond of Buffalo area. From there we drove through the Bighorn Mountains. We are no longer young and cannot walk much further than the info sign at the roadside turn off. This summer we are limited to the Northeast. It will still be interesting.
You’re welcome. Thanks for the watching. Yes, great area. Glad you are still getting out and enjoying what you can! The Northeast has plenty of beauty as well. 😊
I grew up in Sheridan WY, so yeah I’ve been to all those places, but my part of the Big Horns are up US 14 from Dayton. Tongue River canyon is a great hike up to a cave. And there is so much more to explore up on top of the drive. Many secret places, but I’m not telling - go see for yourself.
L am a Wyoming resident and have lived in different parts of Wyoming, I am suggesting you go see Red Canyon and Sinks Canyon.. Thanks for highlighting our state
We just found you two and loved this video! I grew up in Cheyenne and have seen a ton of the spots you show here. Thermopolis is where we would go camping for a summer vacation! We're heading there in about a month and I can't wait.
Hey Sue! Thanks for watching and so glad you loved the video. What a cool area to grow up in. We definitely could spend more time in Wyoming. Hope you’ll subscribe and maybe check out some of our international adventures as well! 😊
Howdy, Quench Your Adventure's. I'M answering from Scenic Worland, Wyoming. The Hub of the Bighorn Basin, as we Term it. Nice Smart Travel Piece 🧩👍 You Produced. Although You didn't go Too Yellowstone Park, or Grand Teton, & Jackson Hole. As for this Segments, Itinerary? IT was Nicely done ☺️✅ & Really Cute, as well as Good 👍😊. I will Watch the Other episodes, & Comment as Asked. Have Great Fun & the Adventures in Our Great State Lol. Be SAFE and Happy ☺️😁🤔😁. Wyoming, Robert, 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸💪💪🤔🤔🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hey Robert! 👋🏼 Thank you so much for watching and commenting. We loved our time in Wyoming. We did go to the big parks you mentioned and documented our time there in our other Wyoming videos. 😊 Thank you so much and keep enjoying the great state you live in! 😃
Thank you. Get out there when you can! National Parks are great, but this video is a nice reminder that there are so many other great places to recreate. 😀
Thank you very much! Don’t forget to subscribe for more content like this. 😀 Great comment. I don’t remember all the specifics with these places, but Grouse Mountain was an excellent free spot and Wyoming has quite a bit of free camping/great places to boondock. We use iOverlander and Campendium to help guide us!
To Wylie Dank. Go online. Look up The Bighorn National Forest. Then Contact the District Offices, they will then Reply to Your, Needs & Inquires. Hope this Helped You Out.
On my 2022 trip to Wyoming I visited 6 of those places (did not make the hobo hot spring). they're very nice. In general, you can't go wrong on Wyoming's scenic highways. I drove almost all them in 2022 and they are outstanding.
Wyoming is truly a great state to visit. If you really want to see Wyoming, get yourself a four wheel drive vehicle and find the interesting forest roads and two tracks and go.
Between Ten Sleep and Worland is Castle Gardens. Amazing rock formations and an amazing place to fly a drone!!!! Oh, and the river flows north from Boysen dam towards Worland and the Bighorns, through Wind River Canyon, but who's counting. 😂
Nice! Would love to fly there. Haha another person said that as well. Oops! 😄 Thanks for watching and hope you’ll subscribe and check out some other videos!
"Cow pie pitching" is one of our favorite sports here in Wyoming! They also serve well as fuel for campfires when there's no wood around. I even saw a fella selling "cow pie cigarettes" to the flatlanders once , but I just never screwed up the courage to try one! Too bad you didn't try fishing at Libby Lake; with a few well picked flies and a little patience, it's trout for dinner!
Haha, that’s awesome, David! They fly pretty nice and I bet they burn well too! Yes, there’s plenty more we could’ve done and maybe someday we’ll return for more. We did get to fly fish on the Snake River near Swan Valley, Idaho and caught a trout!
Wyoming is beautiful, but I have only been to Yellowstone and really just drove through the rest from South Dakota back to Denver (stopping in the state capital of Cheyenne). Thanks for providing this video. I'll have to look into one of these places then next time I'm back in God's country!
Sweet vid! We took our first trip to WY last year and visited YS, Tetons, and heading down to South Rim. Fell in love with what we so and I wanted to know what to put on our list for next time. Would be cool to see a little thumbnail where these places are during the videos but easy enough to look em up. Cheers!!
Thank you! Amazing places. Yep, I use the "save" feature on Google Maps and it's great. These locations span the state, but the Bighorns are definitely worth exploring!
Years back there was a road that bypassed Windriver Canyon to Thermo, the drive was like going back a hundred years it crossed private land, if you were lucky the gates won’t be locked, but alas the land owners on the Thermo end blocked it off.
I’m a truck driver ( 18 wheels (and there’s a few places that I actually went with my truck Thermopolis hot springs You have got to check out independence rock on highway 220 in Wyoming very cool and you get to clim it
If you've not done them yet, I recommend Shell Canyon up to Burgess Junction, and then from Burgess Junction, down 14A to the Medicine Wheel and Big Horn Canyon at the base. Or perhaps do that in reverse. Be aware Shell Canyon is narrow so it's a slow trip up or down, and 14A has 10% grades. The views are spectacular, but take due care with your brakes or they WILL overheat.
Thank you for the recommendations. I have them saved on my google maps. Yes, definitely some roads to utilize the lower gears! Hope you enjoyed the video and please subscribe for more!
I love the beginning music, whistling. Yes, I have been to a couple of them. I lived in Wyoming for years. I miss my state. You mentioned lakes I have never been to, nore heard of so far. Thanks. Gorgeous terrotory. I miss it.
Thanks, Patricia! I love it to, but many people commented saying they disliked it haha interesting. Hope you’ll subscribe and enjoy a few more videos 😊
Informative video. I invested 4 weeks in Wyoming, two years ago and I am going back this summer. Much of my time was in Jackson, Grand Teton, Pinedale, Lander, Sinking Springs and Buffalo. I briefly visited Ten Sleep and Thermopolis but didn't get to see all the backroads and outdoor attractions in your video. Please share geographical coordinates or route names. Thanks again for this video.
Hey Steve, glad you like it. Very nice. Have a great trip. I’m too busy with other projects to dig up any more info about this one, but thanks for watching and hope you’ll check out a few more of our videos. Thanks! 😊
You’re welcome and thanks for watching! Please don’t forget to subscribe and we have a lot of other videos you might enjoy such as our top 14 places in South Dakota. 😀
nice video. i have been to 4 of these places. mostly because my uncle has lived there for over 50 years and my mom lived her last 15 there and God willing i will retire there when i can. if yo haven't been to wyoming i strongly suggest you give it a shot
You guys need a couple of Honda Trail 90s. They're light and you can put them on a rack on the back of your RV and they'll take you anywhere. Born in Wyoming. Can't say I miss it a whole lot. Really the pretty parts are separated by 200 miles of sagebrush. Anywhere really nice you can't afford. Lots and lots of alkali flats and nothingness. Good place if you hate humanity though. My great uncle didn't go to the store but a few times a year and that was his only social life. Went loooonnngg periods without speaking a word to anyone.
Thanks for the comment, Mark. I’ve got a buddy with a Honda Trail 90. Cool little motorbikes. He rode his halfway across the country. I just got an electric mountain bike and it’s great. You’re right about the separation between some of the really cool places in Wyoming, but worth the drives in my opinion! Very interesting about your uncle.
Beautiful ancient and much untouched land. Love all the coniferous trees, don't suppose you know what types of tree they got growing there on the hills? Great job on the drone footage and editing, documents some brilliant views. Bless.
Nice! So 5 places you hadn’t! Love it. Beautiful state. Hope you’ll subscribe and check out a few more videos I’ve made that are similar to this one. 😊
@@QuenchYourAdventure I have subscribed to your video, glad you speak as you go, living in Sheridan Wyoming since 1963 to 1985, moved to Florida present day, my home is Wyoming
It sure is! If you haven’t been to South Dakota, there are plenty of great places there too! Here are 14 of them - th-cam.com/video/uc5cDFXyHk0/w-d-xo.html
Nice, maybe AJ could recommend some spots. We didn’t make it up there, but would’ve loved to drive Rt 14 through the northern part of the bighorns. I’m sure there’s plenty of beauty and maybe good places to see wildlife.
@@lisaknottsberryfan7982 driving up the big horn mountains is really pretty they have scenic routes. The mountains on Dayton side is really pretty too. Dayton is about 16 miles outside of Sheridan. There’s the tongue river canyon that’s headed to Dayton as well that also very cool.
Great Video! I was wondering if you guys go to see Bighorn Canyon (near Lovell), McCologh Peaks (near Cody) or Hell's Half Acre (north of Casper)? All are also little known sites in Wyoming that are awesome
Thank you! No, we kept moving so we could experience Yellowstone a d the Tetons. A few other people commented and mentioned those places and we’ve saved them in google maps!! Thanks for the comment!
👍👍Yes I've been there !!! You dident mention some of the best Flyfishing in the world is there!!! That's why I've been there all the way from Mass. 22 times!!! 😁
@@QuenchYourAdventure yes I have !!! Aren't the Bighorns beautiful !!! 😁 One year we where there they were hanglidng off the top of the pass wow what a jump!!! You can see the parey from the top man it's a long way down!!!
The Big hot spring at Thermopolis says 3.6 million gallons a day...thats 2500 gallon a minute. The sign above the public hot spring one said 1.6 million which would be 1250 gallon a minute. Just wanted to make sure folks understood the actual volume. I was just there last week.
Nice video. I plan to build my retirement home on a lot I bought in Wyoming a few years ago. Praying that I can break ground next Spring. I won't say where, but the properties there are booming. The Wind River runs through the Wind River Indian Reservation which you forgot to mention. Also, from Thermopolis you can drive to Dubois which is a throw back western town. The scenery from Riverton to there is spectacular.
Loved it thanks! We are heading to Wyoming later this year. Did you get cell service in any of those locations lol we need it for work a few days while traveling and was just curious if it is decent in Wyoming. Thanks!
Nice, thank you! You’ll have a blast. I know we had great service at Grouse Mountain and I think good service along the main road in the bighorns. Definitely some dead spots in between a towns. You can always go online and look up coverage maps to get an idea. We also now have a WeBoost to strengthen our signal in the RV.
Wind river canyon is absolutely breathtaking.
Sure is. I would have liked to fly the drone more, but as the name includes, there was a lot of wind! Thanks for watching and hope you’ll subscribe and check out our other similar videos. 😀
That's where I grew up, the Big Horns in my back yard. It's the world's most beautiful secret. Shhhhh
Oh cool! What a nice backyard. Yea sorry, I think the secret is out. 😁
Ha! Me too. I agree shhhh...
Shuuuuuusssshhhhh
Born,grew up,still live in Wind Rivers...they arent exactly a slouch
Very cool. Lovely area for sureb
I live in Wyoming and know of/have been to all these places :) thank you for highlighting my wonderful, beautiful state.
Awesome, Britney! For sure. 😀
I live in Wyoming also
Used tk live in Worland...now in Wright
Awesome!
Very nice! We passed through Worland.
My husband was born and raised in Worland!

That’s so cool! Really cool places. Love that you’re still finding new stuff and appreciating it all! 😀
Great video! I'm a dual citizen living in Saskatchewan presently want to visit more of Wyoming! TY
Thank you so much! Very cool. Where in Saskatchewan? We have a similar video about Montana if you’re interested in that too. 😊
I'm glad to see video of my home territory. I love going out and not seeing a soul. Not many people get to experience deafening quiet.
Love hearing that! Hopefully, despite shining some light on its beauty, it will remain quiet and well-respected! 😀
Wyoming people have been taking care of this state for years we live and work hard here yes I said work we our very independent and enjoy our freedoms that we fight hard to keep we are completely self sufficient and self supporting and we are very protective of everything in this state from the way we make a living to how our children are taught so please keep this in mind
@@kevincraig8257 I love that! I’m all about hard work and self sufficiency. Keep installing those qualities into the world and people around you. 🙂
A windy day in Wyoming, never! A nice drive from the Lookout back down to the lake, then along to Ten Sleep.
Haha right! Yes, really lovely drive down to Ten Sleep! 🤩
Great video. I’ve been to thermop, wind river canyon and bighorns. Absolutely beautiful! And honestly I enjoyed it more than Yellowstone. Also Buffalo bill state park is really beautiful too. Like you, I didn’t get to spend near the amount of time I wanted to. My ultimate goal in life is to move there.

No mask for me, thanks. Too dangerous. 😁😘

Wow, that sounds epic! What an interest contract with the hot springs and cold weather.
Hoping to get there in a few months - thanks for this awesome list! Wow - looks fabulous!
Nice! Of course. It’s great out there. 😊
Born In Lander, raised in Saratoga, I have spent plenty of nights at the hot pool or breaking curfew and going there and then running from the one cop on duty..... Or going there after hitting the Rustic, Wolf, Whistle Pig and Lazy River (now Duke's). Or going to the Hot Pool after working long hours. Grew up hunting the Snowies, know damn near every inch of them. Hiked up to the top of Medicine Bow Peak from Twin Lakes.
I've been to Thermop more than I can count. Pretty much everywhere you showed I've been at least once, except for that Meadowlark Lake, never been there.
Very cool! Sounds like a lifetime of fond memories. Meadowlark is a nice spot. Thanks for sharing and we hope you’ll subscribe and check out a few more of our videos. 😊
I’ve been to the Hot Springs in Therm & also driven the wind River Canyon several times it’s beautiful there. Thanks for the video.
Very cool. Would love to spend more time out there. Thanks for watching!😀
Consider picking up a pair of "Deer whistles" around $10 bucks at any decent auto parts store. They install in minutes and helps prevent hitting one.
Interesting. Never heard of it, but sounds like a good preventative. We don’t have the RV anymore (or any vehicle for that matter), but thanks! We hope you’ll subscribe and maybe check out a few more of our videos. 😊
That intro you guys 😍 some unreal footage you got for this one. And so much wildlife 🙌💛
I love it 😆 thank you! Yes, a bunch. 😀
Great informative video.
Traveled through Wyoming 2019, thoroughly enjoyed our time there.
Bendigo/Australia.
Thank you, Les! Oh, wow. From across the globe!
I lived in Wyoming for a short time. Worked on a dude ranch near Sheridan where I studied wildflowers and traveled a long distance up a snowy trail to save my puppy from coyotes. Great memories.
Wow, that sounds crazy! Glad you saved the pup! Amazing places. Thanks for commenting and please subscribe if you have not already!
I live in north central Florida and have drove to and back from Wyoming 3times I have been to 3 of the places on your list but I'm a bit more of the back road type and have been to places that most people would not go the adventure is always more important than the destination I'm not your average interstate guy I try very hard to take non pavement roads lots of map studies make for awesome sights along the traveled path ...thanks for sharing yalls videos
Hey Matthew, thanks for the comment! We’re UCF graduates! That’s awesome. Always fun getting on dirt roads and we would’ve done more of it if we had a better vehicle for it. Hope you’ll subscribe and watch some other videos!
Made me homesick
Great list! Well done. 💪 We'll be in the Snowy Range in 2 days. Pumped about the hikes. 👍😀
Thank you so much! Have a blast!
Since I’ll never get to these places it’s wonderful to live vicariously thru Jenna and Jeremy.
Glad you’re still getting to enjoy them at least virtually! 😀
You're giving away all our secrets!
Yes I have been to all and a few more. 40 year resident, and still exploring!!
p.s. you need to work on the sound consistency on your video
but I enjoyed it anyway !~
That’s great. Love to hear that. Yes, I’ve gotten better in the last few! Just posted one about the Tetons. Thanks!
I live in Cheyenne, and you forgot one one. The Medicine Wheel, up in the North east corner, if I remember right. Only been there once but its kinda creepy. Pinedale, great mountain man museum. And lots of other neat stuff to do in that area. That's it for now. Have fun, travel safe.
Nice. Yes, heard of that spot and would’ve gone if we had more time! Thanks so much!
Just found your channel today. What can I say - AWESOME !!
I can tell that you guys are going to on my favorites list for sure.
Thank you SO much! Love hearing that. Feel free to offer any constructive criticism or things you like that you want to see more of! We’ll do our best. 😀
Thank you for showing parts of Wyoming we are unlikely to be able to see. We have visited the state and are fond of Buffalo area. From there we drove through the Bighorn Mountains.
We are no longer young and cannot walk much further than the info sign at the roadside turn off. This summer we are limited to the Northeast. It will still be interesting.
You’re welcome. Thanks for the watching. Yes, great area.
Glad you are still getting out and enjoying what you can! The Northeast has plenty of beauty as well. 😊
Super video. Some great ideas of where to spend our holidays. Thank you.
Thank you very much! Absolutely!
A great place you missed was Sinks Canyon near Lander. Definitely a natural wonder.
Yes! We have it saved to maybe visit someday. Thanks for watching and hope you’ll subscribe and check out some more 😊
I grew up in Sheridan WY, so yeah I’ve been to all those places, but my part of the Big Horns are up US 14 from Dayton. Tongue River canyon is a great hike up to a cave. And there is so much more to explore up on top of the drive. Many secret places, but I’m not telling - go see for yourself.
Thanks Mortisha! What a great area! Don’t forget to subscribe and we have some other videos you might enjoy.
L am a Wyoming resident and have lived in different parts of Wyoming, I am suggesting you go see Red Canyon and
Sinks Canyon.. Thanks for highlighting our state
Very cool. We’ll add them to the list. Thank you and please subscribe to help support our channel!
I was born in Thermoplis and grew up on a ranch on owl creek 7miles out on the way to Cody
Very cool. I’d love to explore more of the area. Hope you’ll check out some of our other travel videos 😊
oh cool! We want to go back to Wyoming! wow! so much wildlife! All those cows! Love that hot spring!
We do too haha! Yes, we LOVE seeing wildlife! So fun.
We just found you two and loved this video! I grew up in Cheyenne and have seen a ton of the spots you show here. Thermopolis is where we would go camping for a summer vacation! We're heading there in about a month and I can't wait.
Hey Sue! Thanks for watching and so glad you loved the video. What a cool area to grow up in. We definitely could spend more time in Wyoming. Hope you’ll subscribe and maybe check out some of our international adventures as well! 😊

Thank you so much and keep enjoying the great state you live in! 😃
To Quench Your Adventure. Thank You for the Very Quick, & Polite Response. May God Bless You. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
We have parked in the exact Wind River pulloff that you used for your thumbnail.
No way! Very cool. Really beautiful area
Wyoming is the way America used to be,It has it all. The Wyoming Beauty feeds your sole, and calms your Heart. There are better Choices!!
It sure is beautiful! Such a great place to get outside and explore. What do you mean by the last sentence, “there are better choices?”
A very nice narrated and ptofessional production.
Thank you very much! Please subscribe to help support our channel.😀
What a beautiful trip,wish I was out on the road.I haven’t been to any National Parks yet🚐
Thank you. Get out there when you can! National Parks are great, but this video is a nice reminder that there are so many other great places to recreate. 😀
Love your video! Thank you for sharing! Do wish you would have mentioned if free camping, or paid camping was available at these sites.
Thank you very much! Don’t forget to subscribe for more content like this. 😀
Great comment. I don’t remember all the specifics with these places, but Grouse Mountain was an excellent free spot and Wyoming has quite a bit of free camping/great places to boondock. We use iOverlander and Campendium to help guide us!
To Wylie Dank. Go online. Look up The Bighorn National Forest. Then Contact the District Offices, they will then Reply to Your, Needs & Inquires.
Hope this Helped You Out.
Appreciate your adventurous spirit, enjoyed you video footage. We spent many camping trips & picnics in the Snowy Range.
Thank you. Awesome. What an impressive area!!
wow, really nice
Thanks, Mike! Would love if you hit that subscribe button if you haven’t already. 😀
On my 2022 trip to Wyoming I visited 6 of those places (did not make the hobo hot spring). they're very nice.
In general, you can't go wrong on Wyoming's scenic highways. I drove almost all them in 2022 and they are outstanding.
Absolutely! It’s a beautiful state full of open land. Love it
Cool!
Thank you so much!
Wyoming is truly a great state to visit. If you really want to see Wyoming, get yourself a four wheel drive vehicle and find the interesting forest roads and two tracks and go.
It sure is! That sounds amazing. I definitely hope to return someday 😃
Between Ten Sleep and Worland is Castle Gardens. Amazing rock formations and an amazing place to fly a drone!!!!
Oh, and the river flows north from Boysen dam towards Worland and the Bighorns, through Wind River Canyon, but who's counting. 😂
Nice! Would love to fly there. Haha another person said that as well. Oops! 😄 Thanks for watching and hope you’ll subscribe and check out some other videos!
"Cow pie pitching" is one of our favorite sports here in Wyoming! They also serve well as fuel for campfires when there's no wood around. I even saw a fella selling "cow pie cigarettes" to the flatlanders once , but I just never screwed up the courage to try one! Too bad you didn't try fishing at Libby Lake; with a few well picked flies and a little patience, it's trout for dinner!
Haha, that’s awesome, David! They fly pretty nice and I bet they burn well too! Yes, there’s plenty more we could’ve done and maybe someday we’ll return for more. We did get to fly fish on the Snake River near Swan Valley, Idaho and caught a trout!
Eeeeeeewww! 🤣
@@tammyp2214 haha 😆
Wyoming is beautiful, but I have only been to Yellowstone and really just drove through the rest from South Dakota back to Denver (stopping in the state capital of Cheyenne). Thanks for providing this video. I'll have to look into one of these places then next time I'm back in God's country!
Sure is! Absolutely. Don’t forget to subscribe for more travel content!
The rabbits pack a lunch to cross the prairie in Wyoming!
Love it! Hope you enjoyed the video and will subscribe and stay tuned for more 😊
Sweet vid! We took our first trip to WY last year and visited YS, Tetons, and heading down to South Rim. Fell in love with what we so and I wanted to know what to put on our list for next time. Would be cool to see a little thumbnail where these places are during the videos but easy enough to look em up. Cheers!!
Thank you! Amazing places. Yep, I use the "save" feature on Google Maps and it's great. These locations span the state, but the Bighorns are definitely worth exploring!
@@QuenchYourAdventure noted !
Years back there was a road that bypassed Windriver Canyon to Thermo, the drive was like going back a hundred years it crossed private land, if you were lucky the gates won’t be locked, but alas the land owners on the Thermo end blocked it off.
I’m a truck driver ( 18 wheels (and there’s a few places that I actually went with my truck Thermopolis hot springs You have got to check out independence rock on highway 220 in Wyoming very cool and you get to clim it
Awesome! Thanks for all the driving you do and the recommendation. 😀
We live here and love it. I agree …Sssshhhh….
Haha sorry. It’s a lovely state! Whereabouts do you live?
If you've not done them yet, I recommend Shell Canyon up to Burgess Junction, and then from Burgess Junction, down 14A to the Medicine Wheel and Big Horn Canyon at the base. Or perhaps do that in reverse. Be aware Shell Canyon is narrow so it's a slow trip up or down, and 14A has 10% grades. The views are spectacular, but take due care with your brakes or they WILL overheat.
Thank you for the recommendations. I have them saved on my google maps. Yes, definitely some roads to utilize the lower gears! Hope you enjoyed the video and please subscribe for more!
Stay away from Shell canyon
@@JK-lp6uwUhhh..... Why?
I grew up in Wyoming. Disappointed that there wasn't a shout out to Sheridan.
Nice. There maybe would’ve been if we got the chance to visit! Always more to explore. 😊 Hope you’ll subscribe and watch a few more!
I love the beginning music, whistling.
Yes, I have been to a couple of them. I lived in Wyoming for years. I miss my state. You mentioned lakes I have never been to, nore heard of so far. Thanks. Gorgeous terrotory. I miss it.
Thanks, Patricia! I love it to, but many people commented saying they disliked it haha interesting. Hope you’ll subscribe and enjoy a few more videos 😊
Informative video. I invested 4 weeks in Wyoming, two years ago and I am going back this summer. Much of my time was in Jackson, Grand Teton, Pinedale, Lander, Sinking Springs and Buffalo. I briefly visited Ten Sleep and Thermopolis but didn't get to see all the backroads and outdoor attractions in your video. Please share geographical coordinates or route names. Thanks again for this video.
Hey Steve, glad you like it. Very nice. Have a great trip. I’m too busy with other projects to dig up any more info about this one, but thanks for watching and hope you’ll check out a few more of our videos. Thanks! 😊
Good video!
one little correction the Wind River doesn't dump into the Bosin reservoir but rather it flows from Bosin reservoir.
Nice! Yes, I had a couple other folks correct me about the flow of the Boysen Reservoir!
The Wind River flows north through the canyon, so it comes out of Boysen Reservoir, not emptying into it.
Oh wow. That’s really interesting! Thanks for the correction. Hope you enjoyed the video, Larry!
Very nice, thank you. Makes me homesick.
For sure, thanks for watching. You’re from there?
Born and raised in Rock Springs. Also lived in Laramie, Douglas, and Casper.
@@svengeorge6082 Oh cool! All across the state.
Cow pie Frisbee....yeee-ha😂
Haha yeaaaa 😆
Thx u for sharing I'd had no idea all thst was there
You’re welcome and thanks for watching! Please don’t forget to subscribe and we have a lot of other videos you might enjoy such as our top 14 places in South Dakota. 😀
nice video. i have been to 4 of these places. mostly because my uncle has lived there for over 50 years and my mom lived her last 15 there and God willing i will retire there when i can. if yo haven't been to wyoming i strongly suggest you give it a shot
Thank you, Dave! Please subscribe to support our channel and thanks for commenting. I hope you get to retire there!
You guys need a couple of Honda Trail 90s. They're light and you can put them on a rack on the back of your RV and they'll take you anywhere.
Born in Wyoming. Can't say I miss it a whole lot. Really the pretty parts are separated by 200 miles of sagebrush. Anywhere really nice you can't afford. Lots and lots of alkali flats and nothingness. Good place if you hate humanity though. My great uncle didn't go to the store but a few times a year and that was his only social life. Went loooonnngg periods without speaking a word to anyone.
Thanks for the comment, Mark. I’ve got a buddy with a Honda Trail 90. Cool little motorbikes. He rode his halfway across the country. I just got an electric mountain bike and it’s great.
You’re right about the separation between some of the really cool places in Wyoming, but worth the drives in my opinion! Very interesting about your uncle.
I was raised in one of the places you went to.
Oh, which one?
Beautiful ancient and much untouched land. Love all the coniferous trees, don't suppose you know what types of tree they got growing there on the hills? Great job on the drone footage and editing, documents some brilliant views. Bless.
Absolutely. I’m not sure, do you know? Thank you! We have a lot more videos that you might enjoy. Please subscribe if you haven’t already. 😀
They are mostly lodgepole pine. Some Aspen trees, and lots of Douglas Fir. On those Bighorns it's most Lodgepole and Jack Pine trees.
A wealth of knowledge!
@@QuenchYourAdventure Not a wealth of it, but just decent knowledge of Wyoming.
Wow, this is beautiful
It truly is such a beautiful state! 😀
Interesting I heard of 2 of the seven you mentioned
Nice! So 5 places you hadn’t! Love it. Beautiful state. Hope you’ll subscribe and check out a few more videos I’ve made that are similar to this one. 😊
@@QuenchYourAdventure I have subscribed to your video, glad you speak as you go, living in Sheridan Wyoming since 1963 to 1985, moved to Florida present day, my home is Wyoming
Thank you very much. Oh, wow. I lived most of my life in Jacksonville and graduated from the University of Central Florida.
I was born in Sheridan, the big horns are my home range.
That’s awesome! Wish we could’ve spent more time there. 😀
I would love to move to Wyoming! Thx 4 sharing :)
Cool! Are you considering it? Of course. 😀
Ditto! Been looking at land out there since our road trip last year. Hard to pick the right spot but hope to pull the trigger within a year!
That’s so cool! Good luck making the move!
Very beautiful want to visit there
It sure is! If you haven’t been to South Dakota, there are plenty of great places there too! Here are 14 of them - th-cam.com/video/uc5cDFXyHk0/w-d-xo.html
Yall missed out on Sinks Canyon in Lander. And Dinwoody out by Dubois.
Nice! Just saved them in google maps. So many places!
Very well done
Thank you so much! Please subscribe if you haven’t already! 😀
I live in Sheridan, Wy cool i am gonna follow this channel . almost every place that was in this video ive been to
Nice! We really wanted to pass through Sheridan, but continued West instead heading up that way. Some great places around there for sure!
I’m going to see Sheridan for the first time in a couple months what is a great scenic place to go drive by?
Nice, maybe AJ could recommend some spots. We didn’t make it up there, but would’ve loved to drive Rt 14 through the northern part of the bighorns. I’m sure there’s plenty of beauty and maybe good places to see wildlife.
@@lisaknottsberryfan7982 driving up the big horn mountains is really pretty they have scenic routes. The mountains on Dayton side is really pretty too. Dayton is about 16 miles outside of Sheridan. There’s the tongue river canyon that’s headed to Dayton as well that also very cool.
148 comments from Montana, “Hey I’m from there!”
Do you mean, Wyoming?
Great Video! I was wondering if you guys go to see Bighorn Canyon (near Lovell), McCologh Peaks (near Cody) or Hell's Half Acre (north of Casper)? All are also little known sites in Wyoming that are awesome
Thank you! No, we kept moving so we could experience Yellowstone a d the Tetons. A few other people commented and mentioned those places and we’ve saved them in google maps!! Thanks for the comment!
Cool! Definitely worth visiting if you guys ever get the chance.
👍👍Yes I've been there !!!
You dident mention some of the best Flyfishing in the world is there!!! That's why I've been there all the way from Mass. 22 times!!! 😁
Awesome! Haha you’re right! Love that. Thanks for the comment and please hit subscribe if you haven’t already! 😀
@@QuenchYourAdventure yes I have !!!
Aren't the Bighorns beautiful !!! 😁
One year we where there they were hanglidng off the top of the pass wow what a jump!!!
You can see the parey from the top man it's a long way down!!!
Thank you! Yes, loved those mountains and some epic drives! Hope to return someday. 😀
@@QuenchYourAdventure 👍👍 Me too!!!
It's been a while!
The Big hot spring at Thermopolis says 3.6 million gallons a day...thats 2500 gallon a minute. The sign above the public hot spring one said 1.6 million which would be 1250 gallon a minute. Just wanted to make sure folks understood the actual volume. I was just there last week.
Wow, so amazing to think about and quantify! Thanks for the info.
Oh and don’t forget to subscribe if you haven’t already!
Nice video. I plan to build my retirement home on a lot I bought in Wyoming a few years ago. Praying that I can break ground next Spring. I won't say where, but the properties there are booming. The Wind River runs through the Wind River Indian Reservation which you forgot to mention. Also, from Thermopolis you can drive to Dubois which is a throw back western town. The scenery from Riverton to there is spectacular.
Thanks! That’s great. Hope you enjoy your retirement. Yes, you’re right. Would love to explore more around here!
Loved it thanks! We are heading to Wyoming later this year. Did you get cell service in any of those locations lol we need it for work a few days while traveling and was just curious if it is decent in Wyoming. Thanks!
Nice, thank you! You’ll have a blast. I know we had great service at Grouse Mountain and I think good service along the main road in the bighorns. Definitely some dead spots in between a towns. You can always go online and look up coverage maps to get an idea. We also now have a WeBoost to strengthen our signal in the RV.
You missed the medicine wheel in the big horns
We sure did. Couldn’t do it all but hopefully we can return sometime 😊
Thank you
You’re welcome 😀
How can I download the whistling music sound tract?
Patiently waiting for my US Visa application to visit Wyoming in August.
Thanks for your video.
