In southern Wyoming, you’ll discover a string of towns that make up Carbon County.
They’re woven together by ranching, coal, oil and a growing wind turbine industry. Break up your drive by stopping at some of these small-town attractions.
One of Saratoga's most exciting annual events combines ski & horse racing.
