Thermopolis is best known for its hot springs, the largest mineral hot springs in the world. It's also the location of the state bison herd. (How many states have their own bison herds? Probably only the one whose state flag bears the image of a bison: Wyoming.) In addition to those attractions, did you know that Thermopolis has its own version of a popular board game? It's an interesting place to visit for any and all of those reasons, not to mention its proximity to the beautiful Wind River canyon.
We spent four days in Thermopolis last summer and it wssn't long enough. What a lovely little city and near some the best fishing my husband has ever experienced. He caught not one, but two huge trout just a few miles out of town at the "wedding of the waters".
ReplyDeleteWe drove through that area a few years ago but didn't get the chance to stop. Now you're making me curious about the area do just so.
ReplyDeleteMary -- That sounds like a wonderful trip. Who cleaned the trout?
ReplyDeleteDena -- Be sure to stop the next time you're in the area. There's a small museum (which is where I saw the Thermopoly game) that's worth half an hour or so.
