Snowy Range Scenic Byway


Approximately 30 miles west of Laramie, the Snowy Range Scenic Byway crosses 27 mi of the Medicine Bow National Forest, rising from 8,000 ft on the valley floor to 10,847 ft at Snowy Range Pass, where nearby Medicine Bow Peak towers to 12,013 ft with year-round glaciers. From the Sugarloaf Recreation Area, as well as other trailheads, there are miles of high alpine trails, including a trail to the top of Medicine Bow Peak. Along the byway are other popular recreational activities, including interpretive areas, camping, picnicking, fishing, and OHV riding.
