Active weather alerts for Wyoming
Wyoming is experiencing the season's first significant winter storm with multiple hazards affecting the state through Thursday noon. Winter Weather Advisories blanket the mountain ranges including the Snowy Range, Sierra Madre, and Southern Laramie Range, with 6-12 inches of snow accumulation expected above 7,000 feet, winds gusting to 45 mph, and travel becoming very difficult along Highway 130. The I-80 Summit between Cheyenne and Laramie faces hazardous conditions with 3-6 inches of snow and reduced visibility. Additionally, the Wind River Mountains East and West will receive 1-3 inches through noon today. A Dense Fog Advisory affects the South Laramie Range and I-80 Summit with visibility under one mile, creating dangerous driving conditions. Residents in Cheyenne, Laramie, and surrounding areas should exercise extreme caution; outdoor recreationists and hunters risk disorientation in low visibility. All non-essential travel in affected mountain areas is discouraged.

About Wyoming boat launches

Where do the Wyoming boat launches come from?
Public-access listings published by Wyoming's fish & wildlife agency, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the National Park Service (NPS), the Bureau of Reclamation, and local park districts. We focus on launches that are publicly accessible.
Can I check launch conditions before I drive?
Each launch page links the nearest USGS streamgauge (for rivers) or NOAA tide station (for coastal sites), plus a 7-day weather forecast. Cross-reference with the launch's typical operating range — drought drawdowns can put a concrete ramp 20 ft above water.
Are there fees?
Fees vary by operating agency. State-managed launches in Wyoming typically charge a small day-use or boat-trailer fee. Federal launches often accept the America the Beautiful pass. Always check the launch's detail page for current fee info.
What about boating safety in Wyoming?
Always carry the right gear (PFDs, signaling, a marine radio for coastal trips), file a float plan, and watch the weather. The U.S. Coast Guard publishes safe-boating guidance and free vessel safety checks.
