Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT)

Thermopolis, for a small town, has remarkably nice public facilities. I am told that this is the result of state money earned from oil, coal, etc. The Thermop WYDOT is located on the south side of town, between US-20 and the Bighorn River. For a satellite image of the photographs below, click here.




On the south side of the parking lot is this sign:
The arrow points to a sidewalk that leads to a river frontage area which seems to be rarely used because it is in its natural, wild state. I suppose people come here to fish, but it is also a nice place to bring your camping chairs and contemplate the beauty of God's creation. I took these shots on the 5th of August, 2009.
