The wild, untamed west awaits in Wyoming.  Even though it's America's 10th largest state, it's the least populated, with only about a half million residents scattered amongst a few small cities, towns, and the vast expanses in between.  There's no better place to get away from it all on a road trip, and when you include a little slice of Nebraska and South Dakota, you're on a great adventure into the West!
