A good/sad documentary about this is “Rocky Mountain Heist”.

As a former Wyoming resident as well, there are a lot of places that look heavenly compared to Rock Springs. 😉
You said a mouthful there, it's especially true during the winter. I don't want or mean to offend anyone from Wyoming, but an old adage comes to mind. " The best thing coming out of Rock Springs is I-80"!
So how about RUSSIA Lloyd3? Mostly white people except for a few million pesky Mongols, Grouse hunting in the northern climes, Taimen fishing in the far east of the country.. And anyone who exposes liberal values that you despise, are locked up for long prison sentences! and Putin just made it easier to become a citizen. What’s not to like?
Wow, it looks like some serious disdain for Conservative values is rearing its' ugly head there!
Actually RUSSIA appears to have a lot more in common with Liberal Left Democrats. They persecute their political enemies, as Democrats have with Trump. Their News Media consists of propaganda. They love censorship. The results of their elections cannot be trusted. They control the masses with brain-washing and Socialism. And they don't want any average citizens to own guns. The major differences are that RUSSIA actually protects its' border, and RUSSIA doesn't willfully expose their children to sexual deviant men who dress in women's clothing.
So I don't think Lloyd will want anything to do with RUSSIA, or any woke DEMOCRAT hell hole either.
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.
A recent review of the fishing we have here in Colorado anymore...
As far as Wyoming goes, it's still a special place to me. I almost had the shortest marriage on record when my then "new" bride got a good look at Rock Springs (when I was trying to get my old job back there with the Feds after my 2nd degree). There are some spectacularly beautiful places there, but...lots of it isn't.
Enjoyed the CO video Lloyd. Backing up a bit, one of the reasons I mentioned WY, is because it kinda looks like your nirvana pictures, lol. At least it's not as difficult to line up pictures, that cut out the strip mall, and land yachts. I think Mr. Flyguy is just a little bored, his favorite stream is iced over.

This video is hilarious in a Babylon Bee sort of way--Reality based satire.
Mc--Just a slight correction. The best way out of Colorado isn't I-70 that would be I-25 or I-76, they are the two highways leading to the great bird hunting destinations in Montana & the Dakota's.
Just for the record. I love Wyoming & sharpened my fishing skills there in my youth around the Saratoga area and the Miracle mile back when it truly was a miraculous place back in the sixties & seventies. I pick on places like Rock Springs but in my heart, I don't have anything against it. I just don't want to live there, but then I don't want to live here on the front range anymore either, in some ways Rock Springs does have an advantage over the front range in that it's in a red state and is really close to some great fishing and hunting without the huge crowds coming off the front range going west every day.
