What is Wyomingroutes.org?

Wyomingroutes.org is a website created by David J Corcoran that attempts to show people an insane number of picture of highway signs in the great state of Wyoming.

It has one key component:

• Drive and take photographs of every mile of current state highway in the state of Wyoming

There is no set timetable, only that I will put maximum time into this until completed and as resources allow.

Why are you doing this?

I have a great desire to explore the open road. A few years ago, I entered the state of Washington with my parents for the first time, in a drive to Seattle. I noticed that the two digit highways seemed to have branches that started with the same two digits, and the pattern was apparent. I’d never seen such a coherent system. Washington is also full of beautiful terrain, from Clarkston to Bellingham, Metaline Falls to Vancouver, and everything in between. I loved to drive. It seemed like a logical way to spend my time. I decided that this is something I should do. So I did it. I finished Washington, but I wasn’t ready to stop driving. It was a ton of fun, and I decided that I’d like to try to tackle all fifty states. That’s unlikely to happen, but I coincidentally moved to Wyoming shortly after completing Washington State, and decided that I would attempt to drive every mile of highway in the state of Wyoming.

What is a rough timetable for completion?

It took me basically 2 years to finish Washington, so we’ll assume the same here. December 2010 is the expected completion date.

Note on mileposts

I don’t have exact mileposts for Wyomings highways, so you’ll notice I use the abbreviation AMP followed by a round number. This is the approximate milepost and the sign in question can be found somewhere in between it and the next highest number. For instance, if I list AMP: 24, then you can assume the sign is between mileposts 24 and 25 (regardless of whether the pictures are being taken in an increasing or decreasing milepost situation)
