According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 3.46 square miles (8.96km2), all of it land.
History 19th and 20th century
Medicine Bow, like many other towns across southern Wyoming, was established as a result of the construction of the transcontinental railroad in 1868. The railroad located a tie boom on the nearby Medicine Bow River and built a depot, water stop, and coal-loading facility. Later, livestock loading-pens were built and Medicine Bow became an important livestock shipping center. The first load of cattle shipped to the Union Stockyards in Omaha came from the Medicine Bow area.
The town grew up around the railroad facilities. In the middle 1880s, Philadelphia lawyer Owen Wister stopped in town and wrote a description in his journal. He later used the historic setting of Medicine Bow as a backdrop for his novel The Virginian, which is considered to be the first novel of the "Western" Genre. In the early 1900s Medicine Bow was one of the automobile stops on Old Lincoln Highway (Junction of Hwys 30/287 and 487). August Grimm built the Virginian Hotel to accommodate travelers. On June 26, 1909, the city was incorporated.
As specified in the designating legislation for the Territory of Wyoming, Wyoming's borders are lines of latitude, 41°N and 45°N, and longitude, 104°3'W and 111°3'W (27° W and 34° W of the Washington Meridian), making the shape of the state a latitude-longitude quadrangle. Wyoming is one of only three states (along with Colorado and Utah) to have borders along only straight latitudinal and longitudinal lines, rather than being defined by natural landmarks. Due to surveying inaccuracies during the 19th century, Wyoming's legal border deviates from the true latitude and longitude lines by up to half of a mile (0.8km) in some spots, especially in the mountainous region along the 45th parallel. Wyoming is bordered on the north by Montana, on the east by South Dakota and Nebraska, on the south by Colorado, on the southwest by Utah, and on the west by Idaho. It is the tenth largest state in the United States in total area, containing 97,814 square miles (253,340km2) and is made up of 23 counties. From the north border to the south border it is 276 miles (444km); and from the east to the west border is 365 miles (587km) at its south end and 342 miles (550km) at the north end.
Wyoming was a wooden six-mastedschooner, the largest wooden schooner ever built. It was built and completed in 1909 by the firm of Percy & Small in Bath, Maine.Wyoming was also one of the largest wooden ships ever built, 450ft (140m) from jib-boom tip to spanker boom tip, and the last six-masted schooner built on the east coast of the US.
Because of its extreme length and wood construction, Wyoming tended to flex in heavy seas, which would cause the long planks to twist and buckle, thereby allowing sea water to intrude into the hold (see hogging and sagging). Wyoming had to use pumps to keep its hold relatively free of water. In March 1924, it foundered in heavy seas and sank with the loss of all hands.
Description
Wyoming was 329.5 feet (100.4m) long and 50ft 1in (15.27m) wide, with a draft of 30ft 5in (9.27m). It had a volume of 373,054 cubic feet (10,563.7m3), that is, a gross register tonnage (GRT) of 3730.54. After subtracting the volume consumed by the helm and crew quarters and other areas not suitable for cargo, she had a cargo capacity of 303,621 cubic feet (8,597.6m3), or a net register tonnage of 3036.21. Its deadweight was 6,004 long tons, that is, the weight of the ship fully loaded, including the crew, cargo (6,000 tons), fuel, water and stores, less the weight of the ship when totally empty (4,000 tons), was 6,004 long tons. It could carry 6,000 long tons of coal. Wyoming was built of yellow pine with 6" planking and there were 90 diagonal iron cross-bracings on each side.
Did you know that Wyoming is 324 times larger than the city of New York, but only has a population that is 14 times smaller than New York City? Of course I realize that Wyoming is a whole state, and NYC is just a city (the nations biggest in fact), but it's kind of astonishing that one city can have 14 times more people than a whole state that dwarfs it in size. Now you probably hardly ever hear about the state of Wyoming, but it's growing..and beautiful and affordable. So then today's video looks at why nobody lives in Wyoming, because for it's size and scale Wyoming has very very few residents, not when compared to other states, but when compared to cities.

10 Best Places to Visit in Wyoming - Travel Video
Check out all the places seen in this video: https://www.touropia.com/best-places-to-visit-in-wyoming/
With nearly half of Wyoming designated as public land, the Cowboy State is the ideal destination for anyone who wants to explore the dramatic natural beauty of the American West. The most sparsely populated state in the Union, Wyoming is filled with spectacular landscapes, ranging from the thermal geysers of Yellowstone to the jagged mountain peaks of Grand Teton. The mountainous state is rightfully proud of its Wild West heritage too. Whether watching a bronco-busting rodeo or rollicking the night away at a country-music dance hall, it’s clear that cowboy culture is alive and well in Wyoming.

Wyoming Population 🇺🇸 Why is Wyoming SO Empty? 😱
Why Wyoming is so empty? Despite being the 10th largest state in the USA, its vast landscapes remain sparsely populated. In this video, we delve into the fascinating reasons behind Wyoming's low population density. 🇺🇸 Wyoming boasts immense size, surpassing even many European countries like the United Kingdom, Romania, and Greece. Yet, with only half a million residents, it stands as the least populated state in America. Surprisingly, even Alaska, known for its rugged terrain, hosts more inhabitants. 😱 Comparing Wyoming to its neighbor, Colorado, reveals a stark contrast. While both states share similar sizes, Colorado boasts ten times the population. But what factors contribute to this stark demographic difference?

In contrast, Wyoming lacked significant gold deposits, failing to spur comparable population growth. Geography also plays a crucial role. Wyoming's landscape is predominantly rocky mountains, with only a fraction comprising the fertile Great Plains. Harsh weather conditions and persistent winds further deter agricultural development and population expansion. Moreover, nearly half of Wyoming's territory is federally owned, contributing to limited settlement opportunities. Yet, this land management has gifted us with breathtaking national parks like Yellowstone.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 3.46 square miles (8.96km2), all of it land.
History 19th and 20th century
Medicine Bow, like many other towns across southern Wyoming, was established as a result of the construction of the transcontinental railroad in 1868. The railroad located a tie boom on the nearby Medicine Bow River and built a depot, water stop, and coal-loading facility. Later, livestock loading-pens were built and Medicine Bow became an important livestock shipping center. The first load of cattle shipped to the Union Stockyards in Omaha came from the Medicine Bow area.
The town grew up around the railroad facilities. In the middle 1880s, Philadelphia lawyer Owen Wister stopped in town and wrote a description in his journal. He later used the historic setting of Medicine Bow as a backdrop for his novel The Virginian, which is considered to be the first novel of the "Western" Genre. In the early 1900s Medicine Bow was one of the automobile stops on Old Lincoln Highway (Junction of Hwys 30/287 and 487). August Grimm built the Virginian Hotel to accommodate travelers. On June 26, 1909, the city was incorporated.
