Pumpkin Vine Road

Put your boots on and saddle up your trusty four-wheeled steed to enjoy an excursion through the old west of Southeast Wyoming. Pumpkin Vine Road meanders through the high prairies south of Laramie Wyoming. This easy gravel road is a great alternative to the other asphalt routes when traveling to the Vedauwoo Recreation Area between Laramie and Cheyenne. Don't forget to stop and see the Ames Monument, a large pyramid paying tribute to the area's rich railroad history. Ames Monument is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is maintained as a State of Wyoming historic site.
