CASPER, Wyo - The National Historic Trails Interpretive Center (NHTIC) will offer a temporary exhibit exploring the mysteries and wonders of Wyoming through the creative eyes of its seasonal interpreters.
"CSI: Casper Seasonal Interpreters" will be available during normal business hours from October 3 through November 28. This exhibit’s goal is to connect participants with public lands, and in turn with America’s natural and cultural heritage.
According to the Casper Seasonal Interpreters, “we came with fresh eyes and perspectives to see, learn, and share our love of history. Our free exhibit features photographic images and thoughtful text that will stir the imagination of both young and old. It is our great pleasure to share our experiences and adventures, as well as the many inspirational stories of pioneers who came west. It is our hope that this exhibit will paint a picture of what we, as seasonal Interpretive Park Rangers have experienced this summer, and hopefully we will be able to capture your attention by sharing these encounters!”
Admission is free and open to the public during regular business hours, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday.
For more information, please contact the NHTIC (307) 261-7780.
The NHTIC is a public-private partnership between the BLM and the National Historic Trails Center Foundation. The facility is located at 1501 N. Poplar Street, Casper, Wyoming.
As we approach the 50th anniversary of the National Trails System Act, there are 30 congressionally designated National Scenic and Historic Trails in the National Trails System. National Historic Trails are extended trails that closely follow a historic trail or route of travel that is of national significance. The BLM now protects nearly 6,000 miles of 18 designated trails in 15 States, and the BLM also manages thousands of miles of trails under study for potential designation.
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land located primarily in 12 western states, including Alaska, on behalf of the American people. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. Our mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of America’s public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.
