Sundance: I 90 - East - West
Sundance occupies a broad grassland corridor along Interstate 90 on the western edge of the Black Hills in northeastern Wyoming. The town is the seat of Crook County, where the Great Plains meet the wooded, rounded ridges of this isolated mountain range. Its name recalls the Sun Dance, a ceremonial tradition practiced by several Indigenous peoples of the North American Plains. In 1887, Harry Longabaugh was held in the Sundance jail, and the episode gave him the name Sundance Kid. The surrounding country is shaped by ranchland, open pasture, the interstate route and low hills carrying patches of forest.

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.
