Laramie, WY, Real Estate: View of the World from Medicine Bow Peak

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Live in Laramie Real Estate, Laramie, Wyoming WY #12296

Today, Thanksgiving, a day for reflection and counting our blessings.  This view of the world and the friends and family with whom we shared this ambitious Labor Day trek are just one of the many blessings I am thankful for this past year . . . 

       View from Medicine Bow Peak

(Medicine Bow Beak , located in the Medicine Bow National Forest southwest of Laramie, Wyoming)

      Medicine Bow Peak from Lewis Lake

The view looking up is equally awe inspiring as well, we live in a grand world, indeed!

                                      Happy Thanksgiving!

Benda, this brings back great memories of our trip through the Medicine Bow Mtns in 1987.  BEAUTIFUL, and just as I remembered it!

All right Than, I finally found the answer to why it is called Medicine Bow National Forest - and here's the link:

Don't you like how I got out of the long retelling of the tale...

Hello Donald,  I imagine not much can rival the forests and backlands of Washington!  Seems like it would be such a beautiful place to live.

Hi Troy,

    You are correct in that it was much more of an accomplishment than I ever anticipated - in other words I thought it was going to be a lot easier than it was.  Well worth it though, of course!
