Ten Sleep – Once an American Indian Rest Stop

Ten Sleep, Wyoming, located at the foot of magnificent Ten Sleep Canyon in Washakie County, is a must see when you travel in Wyoming. Once you experience this place, you’ll easily understand why Native Americans rested here. Ten Sleep is so-called because its location is centrally located 10 days from Fort Laramie, in the southeast, and the Indian Agency on Stillwater River in Montana, in the northeast.

The area is jam-packed with geologic and archeological wonders. Arrowheads, pictographs, petroglyphs and fossils can be discovered. Collect fossils at Big Cedar Ridge. And be certain to experience the Painted Desert, a sharp contrast to the amazing Bighorn Mountains that surround Ten Sleep.

This historic community sits at the mouth of Ten Sleep Canyon in the Bighorn Mountains. The area provides over a million acres of national forest for all types of outdoor activities: snowmobiling, skiing and snowshoeing in winter and rock climbing, hiking, fishing amazing waters, camping, wildlife viewing in the spring and summer, as well as hunting in the fall.

Winter in the area offers boondocking on over 450 miles of snowmobile trails. Leave your short skis at home as the powder is vast and deep. Ride valley floors and vast open bowls while you enjoy your stay in Historic Ten Sleep, Wyoming. Check out the Bighorn snow report.
