It took 300 miles to the Wild West (flat terrain all around) yet we kept climbing and climbing. The highest point on Interstate 80 is over 8,600+ feet. We could feel it in just walking Karma or getting gas at truck stop. Both of us found the altitude quite uncomfortable. Winter much be really cold and windy here.
Saw another stimulus sign on the road work. Most states have traffic slow from whatever the regular speed limit is (65, 70) to 45 for road construction areas. Not Wyoming, their 75 mph speed limit never fluctuates road work or not.
On our way here, we were so close we slipped off Interstate 80 and drove into Colorado. It took a total of 8 miles to be able to check off another state. We will re-do Colorado for the beauty and our oldest grandson, Erik in Grand Junction. The short drive did reveal another stimulus project on the roads.
