Thanks for posting that, Grav.

About a month ago, there was an article in one of the national newspapers about oil drilling or fracking, I forget which, and the effect it was having on Wyoming.
The article concentrated on the area around Lost Springs so I spent some time on Street View having a look around.
There seems to be some trailer accommodation behind the bar so perhaps that increases the population temporarily if it is related to energy exploitation. Lost Springs.

I'm fond of Wyoming, but Americans often say to me 'there's not much in Wyoming'. Exactly, that's its USP.
I find it a bit crowded in this corner of SE England so some time spent on the prairie suits me quite nicely.
Whether I shall ever get the chance to go back, remains to be seen.

Have they actually been to Wyoming? WTF?

Maybe they meant there isn't much man-made in Wyoming.

Yes, I think that is what was meant.

I take the view that there is plenty in Wyoming. Its natural splendour is unsurpassed.

I've made four visits and I'd go back tomorrow if I could, despite winter setting in.

There has been much comment on that card in the Nation's press. Little of it favourable.
