Kemmerer: I 90 Kearny Divide - West
Interstate 90 near Buffalo sits in the Powder River Basin of northeastern Wyoming, where rolling rangeland lies between the Bighorn Mountains and the Black Hills. This broad, divided route crosses country shaped by cattle ranching, with fenced grazing land and sparse settlement rather than continuous development. Buffalo, a short distance to the southeast, grew during the late 19th century as a ranching centre and retains a historic downtown. The corridor forms part of northern Wyoming’s principal east–west interstate route, linking the Buffalo area with Sheridan and longer routes across the Great Plains and Rockies.

Across Wyoming, few places have a past as firmly rooted in coal mining as Kemmerer. Developed as a Union Pacific coal town, it grew alongside the productive seams of southwestern Wyoming and remains closely associated with the region’s energy industry. The Hams Fork, a tributary of the Green River, runs through this high-desert corner of the state. Kemmerer also marks a milestone in American retail: James Cash Penney opened his first Golden Rule store here in 1902, beginning the business later known as JCPenney. Nearby Fossil Butte National Monument preserves Eocene fossils of fish, insects and plants from ancient Fossil Lake. Browse nearby webcams to gain a broader sense of southwestern Wyoming.

Wyoming stretches from the Montana border to its frontiers with Colorado and Utah, encompassing the high Rockies, broad basins, and Great Plains. The Continental Divide crosses the state, while the Wind River and Bighorn River drain contrasting sides of its interior. In the northwest, Yellowstone National Park—established in 1872 as the world’s first national park—and Grand Teton National Park place geothermal country and sharp mountain relief at the centre of Wyoming’s identity. Ranching remains integral to its open-country culture, alongside communities shaped by railroads, energy, and outdoor travel.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
