Explore Wyoming, Together
The Wyoming Office of Outdoor Recreation is dedicated to bringing people into the outdoors and the outdoors into people's lives. Throughout the year, we host a diverse lineup of events designed to celebrate the outdoor recreation industry, foster stewardship, and sharpen your outdoor skills.
From the first sunrise of the year to the height of the summer season, there is always a reason to step outside and connect with your community.
Our events range from high-energy competitions to meaningful days of service. No matter your skill level, there’s a spot for you on the trail, at the range, or in the field.
