Columnist Bill Sniffin writes that Wyoming residents learn to handle gusts above 100 mph by parking properly and securing doors as the wind shapes daily life.
His column (written over 56 years in Wyoming) explains why these gusts are both a challenge and a sign of local character.

Federal data shows Wyoming’s outdoor recreation generated $2.3 billion in 2024, or 4.5% of the state’s GDP, with growth at 0.5% versus a 4% national increase.
