Curt Gowdy State Park, State park in Laramie Mountains, Wyoming, US.

Curt Gowdy State Park covers 3,395 acres in the Laramie Mountains foothills between Cheyenne and Laramie. Its terrain of rolling hills and sharp granite outcroppings, rising from 6,450 to over 7,500 feet, surrounds three reservoirs: Granite Springs, Crystal, and Upper North Crow. The photograph shows dark blue water bordered by a tall evergreen, tan hills, and dry grass in the foreground.

The park opened in 1971 as Granite State Park, covering 2,473 acres leased from the City of Cheyenne and the Boy Scouts. It was renamed in 1972 for Curt Gowdy, a Wyoming-born sportscaster raised in Cheyenne. A 2005 expansion added Upper North Crow Reservoir, Hidden Falls and the canyon below Crystal Reservoir's dam.

The park's name honors Curt Gowdy (1919–2006), a Wyoming-born sportscaster and outdoorsman who began his broadcasting career in Cheyenne. Hynds Lodge, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, stands within the park. The area was once used by Kiowa, Cheyenne, Arapaho and Lakota peoples, and by Comanche, Pawnee, Absarokee and Shoshone for bison hunting.

The park has about 35 miles (56 kilometers) of trails for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding at different difficulty levels. Routes are marked so visitors can choose paths that match their ability.

The three reservoirs in the park offer different fishing experiences and varying boat access rules. Granite Reservoir allows motorized boats, while others have stricter restrictions on engine power.
