Shoshoni: US 20 Thermopolis - North
The Wind River defines the setting of the Shoshoni–Thermopolis corridor — its broad central Wyoming valley runs between dry, layered hills and irrigated ground. This stretch lies north of Shoshoni and south of Thermopolis, where US 20 and US 26 provide the principal road link through the valley. Open rangeland and cultivated fields line the roadway, with trees concentrated along watercourses and exposed red and pale sedimentary slopes shaping the basin-and-canyon terrain. Thermopolis, to the north, is known for Hot Springs State Park, a public park centered on mineral springs. The surrounding country forms part of the Wind River Basin, one of Wyoming’s major interior basins.

Set in the Wind River Basin near the Wind River and Boysen Reservoir, Shoshoni is a meeting point for US 20, US 26 and Wyoming Highway 789. Its name recalls the Shoshone people, whose traditional homelands span a large part of the interior West. Roads from town lead toward Wind River Canyon and communities of the Wind River Indian Reservation, giving Shoshoni a practical role in regional travel.

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.
