About location

Casper has served as a transportation and trading centre in central Wyoming since the late 19th century. Its southern edge gives way quickly to the rolling, treeless high plains around the North Platte River valley, where broad roads cross open rangeland and scattered development. The city expanded with the railroad and the energy economy, and it remains an important service centre for a large, lightly populated part of the state. Fort Caspar preserves the area’s overland-trail heritage on the route used by emigrants heading west. The National Historic Trails Interpretive Center examines the Oregon, California, Mormon Pioneer and Pony Express routes that passed through this region. Casper combines an urban core with the spacious terrain of Wyoming’s interior.

Buffalo
City Buffalo

Buffalo sits on Clear Creek in northern Wyoming, where the foothills rise toward the Bighorn Mountains. The town developed as a ranching centre and is the seat of Johnson County, with a compact historic downtown that reflects its western roots. The Occidental Hotel, established in 1880, is a landmark on Main Street and recalls the era of frontier travel and cattle country. U.S. Route 16 leads west from Buffalo into the Bighorns, climbing from open plains toward high country.

Wyoming
Region 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.
