Guernsey, WY has register cliff where thousands of pioneers carved their names or initial still visible, and wagon wheel ruts in the sandstone from thousands of wagons. Very unique.
X2. Guernsey State Park is a wonderful place to stay. There are a dozen or so campgrounds around the lake, though the bigger ones will be on the west side of the lake. Others are only like 3-6 sites. Still, it's a great place. Was there last summer, it's surprisingly hilly there, thought it would be flatter than it actually is. There's sites available with W/E, and a dump station at the entrance. At the big CGs the best sites are indeed along the lake in the trees, for shade. These are no hookups. The W/E sites are further in from the lake and are in the open; it will be warm/hot during the summer, but does cool down nicely in the evening.
Register Cliffs is very impressive, all the names and dates from generations of visitors there. On the south end of the town of Gurensey. Also worth a visit is Fort Laramie Historical Park. Very well preserved and also worth spending several hours there.
