    Why the 55?

    Wyoming’s Big Horn Basin is home to four counties. Each one has a number.

    Big Horn County #9 + Park County #11 + Hot Springs County #15 + Washakie County #20 = 55

    Every town in the Big Horn Basin has its own newspaper, its own Facebook groups, its own way of sharing the news. But there’s never been one place that connects the whole Basin — a single resource where you can find out what’s happening in Thermopolis when you’re driving down for a track meet, or discover a new restaurant in Cody before your next Walmart run, or keep up with Lovell Mustang Days, Greybull Days of ’49, and Powell Homesteader Days all in one place.

    That’s why we built Best of the Basin. One source for all 55. For the people who live here, the people who just moved here, and the people who are lucky enough to visit.
