you can checkout the Natrona County Parks snowmobile trail system. Explore 60
miles of machine-groomed trails and an additional 20 miles of ungroomed trails.
The snowmobile system is located on both Casper and Muddy Mountains, with trailheads
located approximately eight miles south of Casper on Casper Mountain Road. The
trails wind through miles of scenic canyons, forests and spacious meadows. Casper
is located nine miles north of the ski area and is the metropolitan center of
Wyoming. It offers a variety of winter activities and accommodations. There
are a range of cultural activities, such as museums, galleries, theater and
the planetarium to choose from. |
