Both are beautiful areas. It depends on how long you have to stay. The snowies are further away and I would suggest this if you have a few days to spare. Vedauwoo is much closer but still provides some beautiful scenery.

I’d park south of the stadium by Washington Park. It’s in a nice residential area, away from students

We aren't that kind of UW but it's where I park as well, in Rawlins you need to go see about Rose's for good Mexican too, but don't let the book be judged by a cover

Roses lariat in Rawlins is the best Mexican, but u have to have cash if I remember correctly. The green chili is the star of the show. Get it on whatever dinner u want. Cloverleaf is good and less crowded, but not on par with roses. Su casa is damn good, their fajitas are some of the best I've ever had...

If u have time, drive from Rawlins Saturday morning and go through Saratoga. The drive through the mountains to Laramie is worth the extra time. It's purty.

Good idea to drive over the mountain. Well worth the extra time.

Head East on Grand Ave. Look for the Toyota dealership on the right. Park on that street. Short walk to stadium and quick getaway East on Grand to I-25 West avoiding traffic from the stadium. Check it out on Google maps.

I thought there was a bunch of construction that had shut all of that down for the time being? Or did that change? Just saw it pop up on facebook the other day to not drive in that area.

Could be construction now. Don't know. That's where I've parked in the past. Sorry if it is closed off now, but should be easy to check.

Greetings to Cowboy fans! I worked with a Wyoming alum in Seattle for several years, and I gained an appreciation for your program and have long pulled for it(just not this weekend;).

I think most Duck fans are feeling pretty good about our new coaching staff, as the program seems reinvigorated. I'm expecting the Ducks to prevail this weekend, but I'm also anticipating a battle, given how big the game is for UW. The altitude is certainly a factor and Allen looks like a stud, but I'm hoping our overall talent and depth is enough to overcome those factors and lead to a Duck victory. Should be a great game. Wish I was going, as I've been through Wyoming once in my life, and it was truly beautiful.

GO DUCKS!!

The fall conditions (temperature, wind, and maybe snow) for the game tomorrow will possibly be a factor. Oregon is a beautiful state also. We have had quite a few recruits come our way from Oregon.
Our depth and talent is getting to a good level also, but I would say we are lacking experience at a few positions. Some of our inexperienced players were a little overwhelmed in the first game against Iowa, but with two games under their belt, they are getting used to the speed & flow of the game. I think we will see some differences in tomorrow's game that we haven't seen in our first two games.
