Thermopolis

After the Tetons, I drove a little over halfway back to Colorado, stopping for the night in Rawlins, Wyoming where I watched the US defeat Ghana in their first World Cup match. I made a detour on the way to Thermopolis, home of Wyoming's Hot Springs State Park. Here, visitors can soak in the mineral waters for free, but only for 20 minutes due to health concerns and the fact that the springs are state run.
