With four distinct seasons, plenty of sunshine, and crisp alpine air, the valley offers a true taste of mountain living year-round. The Valley The Centennial Valley, Snowy Range, and Medicine Bow Peak are rooted in the deep natural and cultural history of southeastern Wyoming-a region shaped by ancient geologic forces. The valley and high country served as seasonal grounds for Native American tribes including the Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Ute, who hunted game, gathered resources, and traversed the mountain passes that thread through the Snowy Range. The valley earned its name in 1876, commemorating the centennial year of the United States, just as homesteaders, ranchers, and loggers began to settle the area. The town of Centennial was originally established as a logging camp to support the construction of the railroad and nearby mining operations. Though the expected mining boom was short-lived, the area quickly gained a reputation for its rugged beauty, attracting early outdoor enthusiasts and seasonal ranchers. The Snowy Range, a subrange of the Medicine Bow Mountains, gets its name from the snow-capped peaks that linger into summer, with Medicine Bow Peak rising as its crown jewel at 12,018 feet-the highest point in southern Wyoming. According to Indigenous tradition, the name Medicine Bow is tied to the gathering of mountain mahogany by Native tribes in the area, used for crafting bows believed to hold spiritual power.  The Centennial Valley is located in southeastern Wyoming, just west of the city of Laramie and nestled at the base of the Snowy Range in the Medicine Bow Mountains. Sitting at over 8,000 feet in elevation, the valley stretches along the Little Laramie River and is framed by towering alpine peaks, forested hillsides, and wide-open meadows. It begins near the small town of Centennial-about 30 miles west of Laramie-and serves as a gateway to the Snowy Range Scenic Byway and Medicine Bow National Forest.
