Wyoming’s public lands cover more than 30 million acres, providing ample opportunities for hunting and fishing. The state’s national forests, wildlife management areas, and BLM lands offer access to some of the most pristine hunting and fishing locations in the country. Wyoming’s hunting and fishing culture has deep roots in the state’s history, with a rich tradition of Native American hunting practices and pioneer settlers relying on game for sustenance. The state is also home to some of the most iconic natural landmarks in the country, such as Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Tetons. These national treasures provide additional opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts to explore and experience the beauty of Wyoming. In recent years, Wyoming has become a leader in conservation and sustainable resource management. From the miracle mile to the Devil’s Tower, the Cowboy State has something for everyone.
