Wyoming . i took off from the colorado regional to scout a bit in the Bighorn mountains . i got there but then passed on by because smoke from the montana fires had settled thick in that region - and i would discover - all the way into the BlackHills . so my scouting report has to do with hitch-hiking in Wyoming . yes , soliciting a ride in that state is illegal . you are entitled however to stand , sit or walk on state highway or Inter-state . foot travel is permitted only against the flow of traffic . one may NOT fly a sign , nor a thumb . don't do it ! but the penalty is only a day in jail . after a discussion with a patrolman near Casper , Wyoming i quit the thumb-sign and just sit there playing the banjo and thinking . i think if a patrolman asks you where you are going , and for example you want a ride north , then say you are going south (against the flow of traffic) otherwise you'd have to go to the other side of the road and actually walk . your friend , Tuba
thanks for the info tikoo! I'm actually glad that the 2008 gathering it going to be in Wyoming because I think I'm going to check out CO before hand. I'm moving to CO in 1.5 years, so I need to find an area that I want to call home for a while.
