The Ultimate Cheyenne Summer Bucket List: 15+ Ideas & Adventures

Have you ever tried being a tourist in your own city?

I ask this because recently, I decided to try looking at Cheyenne through a tourist's eyes. Why, you might ask? Well, I grew up here. Things that seem ordinary or commonplace to me might appear completely unique or even weird to someone not from here.

I mean, consider our Big Boots. How often would someone from, say, Chicago see a giant cowboy boot on a street corner...much less 30+ giant cowboy boots around town? They'd be intrigued...perplexed, even. That person would want to know what was up with the Big Boots. I take them for granted, but if I'm being honest, I don't know the story behind every Big Boot. And maybe I should because they're part of my hometown's story, right?!

So, I found myself thinking, how would a tourist view Cheyenne? What things should a tourist see here that are outside of the box? What are the cool parts of Cheyenne that everyone should experience at least once in their life...especially the people who live here!

Thus I have compiled the Ultimate Cheyenne Summer Bucket List - a set of activities and fun adventures that capture the best of Cheyenne and the surrounding area. It contains all the hidden gems on my personal Summer Bucket list, plus suggestions from Cheyenne residents on their must-try activities here in town.
