This climb starts in the small town of Centennial about 25 miles west of Laramie, Wyoming. This is a notoriously windy area and the day I rode was no exception. Centennial is a hardy, windswept, cowboy town at 8000 feet and on the leeward side of the Snowy Mountain Range and the locals say it is always windy. It does snow a lot in the Snowy Mountains but they are named as they are because the mountains are a light grey color and they look like there is snow on them even in the summer. Centennial is in what is best described as rolling prairie. Just a couple of miles out of town I entered the forest and this time of year (third week of September) the forest included aspen trees with gold leaves.

A stunningly beautiful ride in Wyoming. Traffic was light on a weekday in early September. Riding up the old 130 highway is a fun alternative route, but it's rough in spots, so retuning on the newer road is recommended, I highly riding over the top and down to Ryan Park Campground (and back) to see the whole Snowy Range.
