Wyoming is the home of many Natural Wonders.

In the northwest corner of the state, Yellowstone National Park is the home to geysers, hot springs as well as many geothermal features. Old Faithful Geyser draws millions of visitors each year. The park has herds of free-ranging animals such as buffalo and elk and is also the stomping ground of grizzly bears and wolves.

On the other side of the state, in the Black Hills of Wyoming's northeast corner, you'll find a towering rock formation called Devil's Tower. Devil's Tower draws visitors by the millions each year as well as several Native American tribes who return to the area for annual rituals. Devil's Tower came under the National Park Service in 1916. Mountain climbers began their quest for the top in the 1930's with records of climbs kept since 1937.

The water from rain either evaporates or is absorbed into the ground. This is not a farm-friendly environment yet many ranches are established near the mountain ranges on all four sides of the state.
