Hiking in Lander, WY

Young's Mountain is a nice, relatively easy walk-up peak climb close to town. There's a ring of rocks at the summit that some believe is a Native American medicine wheel.

An undulating outcropping of gray and pinkish badlands, the Honeycomb Buttes are a great place to wander and explore.

Another route that doesn't follow a clear trail, climbing Oregon Buttes is an adventure in high desert exploration.

Red Canyon Rim is more of an exploration than a hardcore hike. You can poke around the cream-colored slickrock for hours and have a grand time. Kids especially love exploring here.
