“I believe that there is a subtle magnetism in Nature, which, if we unconsciously yield to it, will direct us aright.”
—Henry David Thoreau—

The city may have impressive architecture and galleries, but Carbon County, Wyoming, is surrounded by nature’s own skyscrapers and art exhibitions that begin every sunrise and sunset. And the rare traffic jam is usually caused by majestic four-legged creatures.
