Welcome to Riverton,
The very heart of the great state of Wyoming!
Riverton, Wyoming has a strong history as a meeting place, giving it the nickname the Rendezvous City. This is where the mountain men, trappers, loggers, and miners as well as Native Americans met to trade, congregate, and catch up with news from other areas. The Big and Little Wind Rivers even converge here. Today the mountain man tradition and skills are alive and well in the form of reenactments and festivals.
