Ayers Natural Bridge near Casper (WY)

Natural bridge over LaPrele Creek.


 
A week-long, work-related class took me to Casper, Wyoming, in early June.  Late one afternoon, two colleagues and I drove less than an hour east to this rare natural bridge that spans LaPrele Creek.  As did the pioneers, one could sit and stare at the geology and soothing stream for hours.  A short boot trail leads to the top of the arch.  A redrock wall nearby has a short, scenic path at its base, hidden behind boulders.  A few campsites are available for longer lingers.
