Driving Directions:

Attention! Directional signs will not be posted for the Laramie Daze events on Wednesday, Thursday & Friday, so please review and/or print the driving directions below.

All directions assume you are coming from Laramie on I-80, and exiting at the Summit exit, exit 323.

  • Wednesday, June 29 — Laramie Daze Day 1 — Moose Outlet:  Take exit 323, drive north over the interstate, and turn left onto WY 210 (Happy Jack Road).  Take WY 210 east towards Cheyenne for about 6.3 miles, turn right onto Forest Service road 707, and drive for about 0.9 miles and park (the road here is passing through a fairly featureless prairie area on both sides).

  • Thursday, June 30 — Laramie Daze Day 2 — Pitcher Hill: Take exit 323, drive north over the interstate, and turn left onto WY 210 (Happy Jack Road). Take WY 210 for about 2.8 miles, and turn left onto Forest Service road 712. Follow 712 for 2.1 miles to a "T" intersection and turn right. Continue on 712 for 0.3 miles and turn left at the next intersection. Follow 712 for 1.8 miles to a four-way intersection and continue straight on 712 for another 0.4 miles to the intersection of 712 and 710. Veer right onto 710 (don't take the sharp right going downhill) and continue about 0.7 miles on 710 to the vicinity of a prominent single pine tree on left side of road and park.

  • Friday, July 1 — Laramie Daze Day 3 — Devil's Claw: Take exit 323, drive north over the interstate, and turn left onto WY 210 (Happy Jack Road).  Continue along 210 for about one mile, and take the first left onto Forest Service road 703.  Follow 703 for 1.5 miles and bear right onto 714 (instead of going straight and over a raggedy cattle guard).  Follow 714 for about 0.6 miles and bear left onto 715.  Take 715 across the cattle guard and continue.  The start and finish are about 0.25 miles further down the road where a short jeep trail segment forks left from the main dirt road.  There is only limited parking space there and the road gets steeper past this point, so once space there fills up, we suggest parking *before* you get to the start/finish area; there is plenty of room to either side of the road where the forest to either side begins to edge closer to the road, at about 0.2 miles from the cattle gate.

  • Saturday, July 2 — National Event Day 1 — Twin Boulders: Take exit 323, drive north over the interstate, and turn left onto WY 210 (Happy Jack Road).  Take WY 210 east towards Cheyenne for about 7.6 miles and turn left onto Forest Service road 701.  Stay on 701 for one mile to the corral and cattle guard.  Continue across cattle guard and follow 701 for about 1.1 miles to the junction with 701D.  Turn right onto 701D and continue for about 100 yards to where the road tops out in a flattish area.

  • Sunday, July 3 — National Event Day 2 — Remarkable Flats: Take exit 323, drive north over the interstate, turn onto WY 210 (Happy Jack road), continue east on 210 for about 8.1 miles, and turn left onto Forest Service road 708.  Follow 708 for about 0.25 miles to the intersection with a side road.

  • Monday, July 4 — National Event Day 3 — Diamond Bay: Take exit 323, drive north over the interstate, and turn left onto WY 210 (Happy Jack Road).  Take WY 210 east towards Cheyenne for about 7.6 miles and turn left onto Forest Service road 701.  Stay on 701 for one mile to the corral and cattle guard.  At the corral, turn right onto the side road, 701G.

Parking:

  • Please park as directed by the parking marshals.

  • Also, only pull off far enough to be clear of the main roadway.
