GO CLIMB A BIG ROCK

Professional and amateur photographers find the area a feast for their lenses. From the jumbled weathered rock formations of Vedauwoo to the incredible grandeur of the Rocky Mountains, the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest is outdoor perfection.

Vedauwoo has some of the best climbing in the nation. Climbers come from all over the world to sample some of the best crack climbing called “off-widths”.

Albany County and the Laramie area has some phenomenal fishing and fly-fishing. Fish for Cutthroat, Rainbow, Brown and Brook trout on the Big/Little Laramie rivers, Laramie plains lakes and the Snowy Range alpine lakes. Hire a fly-fishing guide based out of Laramie to float the North Platte, Miracle Mile, or Grey Reef.

Albany County has pristine mountain lakes, streams, and beaver ponds for all levels of boating enthusiasts. Take a canoe ride across the mountain lake and watch eagles hunt for trout, or moose graze on the brush as they watch you drift by.

Albany County has over 100 mountain bike trails from easy to hard to choose from. Laramie has 2 bike shops and 2 outdoor shops downtown that have knowledgeable bike and hiking enthusiasts to assist in your summer outdoor adventures.

Fort Sanders, located 2.5 miles South of Laramie, is all but in ruins today. Pictured here is General Ulysses S. Grant and other dignitaries at Fort Sanders in 1868. Ironically Fort Laramie is 2.5 hours Northeast from Laramie.

The rails reached Laramie on May 4, 1868 when construction crews worked through town. A few passengers arrived on that same day.

Laramie is named after a French Canadian mountain man Jacques La Ramee. La Ramee was a fur trapper who loved to explore Wyoming. He brought many fellow fur trappers to the Laramie Area.

Inspired while fly fishing in the Laramie Area, Thomas Edison came up with the idea of the filament light bulb after his fly rod broke in two. Home of the first electrical plant in the Rocky Mountains, Laramie lit up the night sky like a gem, earning the nickname “Gem City of the Plains.”
