It's 350 miles long. Anyhow my point was that we have several complete interstates.

It will be just the 2nd Interstate completed in ATS.

Sorry... have to mention:

I-5
I-8
I-17
I-19
I-82
I-84
I-86

Some of these are pretty short, but I-5, I-8 & I-84 are substantial multi-state highways.

Is Wyoming semi-arid in places? Yes. They have a bit of a desert in the south central portion of the state. Basically that empty area just north of I-80 from Rock Springs to Rawlins. https://www.google.com/maps/@42.132253,-107.4259662,3a,75y,78.82h,77.28t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1s6H67O6GnegYuThveUnLE7w!...

That said, I have now moved to two other states, and am still not getting any event jobs. Seems I'll have to do this event in ETS2.

I started in Colorado and only got one job there at the Denver airport. Later on I found lots of these jobs at the port in San Francisco. Maybe try there?

I found something on YouTube today that you all might like. Someone took your research into the Wyoming locations and made a video comparing SCS's screenshots to pictures of the real thing. I didn't see anyone else post this, so if this is not something that's ok to link to please let me know and I'...

In reality though, would we really get coal? Would they just put a NAMIQ along WY-59? I know coal cars are a thing for trains, but from a trucking point of view is there anything really different for cargo going to/from a coal mine versus a different type of mine? I imagine that there will be some s...

There are other things I would prefer in ATS over a reworked Pikes Peak, but I think it would look a lot better if they gave it the same treatment as those mountains they've shown us from their Wyoming work in progress. Here's Pikes Peak in game just west of I-25 versus a link to google streetview f...

that will be the day pigs meow.

That's great! I'm going to start using that phrase.

I would say that if they actually do redo the mountains around Salt Lake City, Pikes Peak (Colorado Springs) rework is on the table too!

Wyoming is a perfect opportunity to improve the mountains around Salt Lake City. They have to build I-80 climbing the mountains east towards Evanston, so why not just do a touch up for Utah DLC at the same time?

I just inspected cities that he supposedly worked on, they're kind of impressive so it makes sense why he's a map DLC leader now. Agreed, Idaho Falls is just spectacular. However, in this case I would speculate that just being a great map designer might not be the key reason for being promoted to D...
