Ten Sleep rewards everyday life with outsized scenery and access to adventure. Set in Washakie County between red rock walls and the Bighorn Mountains, it sits along the storied Cloud Peak Skyway on US-16, making weekend trips to Buffalo or errands in Worland straightforward. Locals head up-canyon to the limestone cliffs and cool creek bottoms, or into the expansive Bighorn National Forest for hiking, Nordic skiing, snowmobiling, and wildlife watching.
Families appreciate the one-campus ease of Ten Sleep School, part of Washakie County School District #2, where small classes and community involvement shape academics, arts, and athletics. History buffs and curious kids alike find hands-on exhibits at the nearby Washakie Museum & Cultural Center in Worland. Throughout the year, town traditions—summer rodeo celebrations, farmers markets, and music on warm evenings—bring neighbors together and keep calendars full without sacrificing quiet.
Housing here ranges from in-town bungalows to view-filled acreages edging the timberline. Morning coffee might come with mule deer in the yard, while a powder day or golden-hour crag session is minutes away. Larger-city amenities in Sheridan are within a scenic drive, yet Ten Sleep keeps its easy pace and friendly wave-on-Main character.
