Wyoming
Wyoming has the second highest mean elevation in the United States, about 6,700 feet, and a high plateau crossed by ranges like the Tetons, the Wind River and the Big Horns. Which mountains did you grow up looking at, or move here to be near? Tell about the hunting camp, the hay field, the long drives and the weather you learned to read. Your view of this land is yours alone.
Wyoming is home to Yellowstone, the first national park in the world, and to Devils Tower, the nation's first national monument, which is sacred to Northern Plains Indians. Maybe you have worked a summer in the parks, guided visitors or simply learned the back roads by heart. What do you know about these places that visitors never see? Tell it the way only someone from here can, with the small details a visitor would miss.
Wyoming's state motto is "Equal Rights," and one of its nicknames is the Equality State. When the University of Wyoming opened in 1887, women were among its students and faculty from the first day. What does fairness mean to you, and where did you learn it? Tell about the people who stood up for what was right in your life. Your values, in your own words, are worth handing on.
