Wyoming

Like No Place On Earth
Wyoming

Yellowstone is the first official National Park (1872)

The majority of Yellowstone Park lies within the boundaries of Wyoming.
The first Dude Ranch in Wyoming was the Eaton Ranch, near Wolf. The Eaton's also came up with the term "dude"

Devils Tower was designated as the first National Monument (1906)

The JCPenney stores were started in Kemmerer.

Wyoming was the first state to give women the right to vote.

The Red Desert in south central Wyoming drains neither to the east nor to the west. The continental divide splits and goes around the desert on all sides leaving the basin without normal drainage.

The Wind River actually changes its name in the middle of the stream becoming the Big Horn River at a site at the north end of the Wind River Canyon, where each year the Native Americans hold a ceremony depicting the "Wedding of the Waters."

The Goal of the People's Natural Traveling is to provide traveling information and adventures from all over the world. Where you can choose from and learn about places and people.
