How Many Wyoming Lakes Can You Name?
Wyoming is not exactly a wet state.
There are some states, like Florida, that have so many lakes it's impossible to memorize all of their names.
Water has always been a precious commodity in this part of the country.
Most of the lakes that Wyoming has today are man-made.
The number of lakes we have is small enough that you can remember them all.
