This Wyoming Scenic Drive Was Worth the Detour | Van Life After 60

Westward Series - Wyoming Scenic Drive April, 2026 Join us for a VanLife After 60 road trip through Wyoming as we take a scenic drive from Buffalo through the Bighorn Mountains on Highway 16, explore Ten Sleep Canyon, and through the Wind River Canyon on Highway 20. This is a little extra from our time in Buffalo, Wyoming — a day spent simply enjoying the road, the views, and the unexpected stops along the way. We’re JK and Kim, and we share our adventures traveling in our Ford Transit van, showing what life on the road looks like after 60 — the scenic drives, small towns, everyday moments, and the places we discover along the way. Our route takes us through some of Wyoming’s most beautiful landscapes: • Highway 16 through the Bighorn Mountains • Cloud Peak Scenic Byway • Meadowlark Lake • Leigh Creek • Ten Sleep Canyon • Thermopolis • Wedding of the Waters • Wind River Canyon If you’re new here, check out our Buffalo Wyoming episode where we explore the town, our stay, and what made this area stand out to us. It’s not about how many places you see — it’s about noticing the ones you do stop in. 👉Here’s the link for the video we mentioned in this episode:    • After Seven Weeks on the Road, Why We Chos...   #VanLifeAfter60 #BuffaloWyoming #WyomingRoadTrip #vanlifeat62 Chapters 00:00 Buffalo Wyoming Scenic Drive Intro 00:45 Leaving Buffalo 01:36 The Route map 01:57 Highway 16 Into the Bighorn Mountains 04:19 Loaf Mountain Overlook 04:55 Cloud Peak Scenic Byway 05:49 Meadowlark Lake & Mountain Pull-Offs 08:52 Leigh Creek 08:30 Ten Sleep Canyon 13:57 Driving Through Ten Sleep 15:15 Thermopolis, Wyoming 20:57 Wedding of the Waters 21:11 Wind River Canyon 26:23 Highway 26 Toward Casper 27:18 Highway 25 north, Sunset, Storms 28:02 Back to Buffalo
