The shortest season in the 5150' just might be our favorite! With so many cozy things to enjoy indoors and many days of cooler but beautiful weather outdoors, there has never been a better time to enjoy exploring our one-of-a-kind home. Not convinced? Read on below for a few of the reasons we think you should be falling for Fall in the 5150'.
Enjoy Autumn Brews
Love it or hate it, you know that with cooler temps comes the return of all things pumpkin spice. From breads and sweets to the quintessential latte, it simply wouldn't be fall without it! Prefer apple cider or another equally cozy beverage? Get out on the Casper Sips 'n' Sweets Trail to discover which of our local coffee shops does fall best!

Cheer On Your Favorite Team
We know there are some passionate sports fans in the 5150'! Whether you enjoy cheering on college athletes or have your dream team already picked out for the pro leagues, there are many great places around town to cheer them on with your friends. Pair your cheering with a hike on the Casper Ale Trail to really take this season to the next level, or get your season tickets to watch the Casper College teams, especially leading up to the NJCAA DI Women's Basketball Championships hosted here in Casper this coming March.
Get Lost in Green Acres Corn Maze
Fall would not be complete without exploring the annual Green Acres Corn Maze. So much more than a maze, this awesome autumn staple in the 5150' will keep the whole family occupied for hours. Enjoy their games, petting zoo, food trucks, train, and more.
