Trail RutsTRAIL RUTS
Location:  .5 miles from Guernsey, Wyoming along Highway 26

These trail ruts are the best preserved along the Oregon Trail.  The deep trail ruts where created by the movement of emigrants along the mighty Oregon Trail.  There are other trail ruts in Wyoming by these where cut into solid rock and truly bring home the magnitude of the journey along the Oregon Trail. 

This historical landmark is easily excusable and just down the road from Guernsey State Park. 
 

GUERNSEY STATE PARK
Well been touring about like a mad woman. Left Golden six days ago and began heading towards Montana. We spent a day at Guernsey State Park in Eastern Wyoming. Growing up in Colorado I had heard of how amazing Guernsey State Park is and finally had the opportunity to test it out. The water at Guernsey was mirror smooth and the cliffs surrounding it are the perfect backdrop. Even if you only have a few hours extra as you pass through this area I would recommend driving through the park as I consider it a top scenic drive.
