CASPER, Wyo. – The National Historic Trails Interpretive Center in Casper reopened Thursday after a brief closure for maintenance on Wednesday. Following a fix to the heating system, the reopening is timely as the Center prepares for an exciting holiday season.

Returning to the Trails Center on Dec. 10 is the popular “Holiday on the Homestead” celebration, the first in-person event since 2019.
