Shaded Wyoming State Map Coloring Page
Coloring ideas for Wyoming Maps
Use natural tones like grassy green, light brown, and sky blue to reflect Wyoming’s open plains, rivers, and mountain landscapes. Add dark gray for the peaks of the Rocky Mountains and try illustrating simple icons like bison, cowboys, or geysers for extra fun. Color each labeled city in a unique color or trace the state border in bold to make it stand out. You can also write the names of surrounding states in the blank areas and draw a compass rose for added geography learning!
On the back of the page, why not write a few fun facts about Wyoming, add drawings of what it's famous for, or create your own colorful version using your imagination?
What is Wyoming?
Wyoming is a western state in the United States, bordered by Montana to the north, South Dakota and Nebraska to the east, Colorado to the south, Utah to the southwest, and Idaho to the west. The capital and largest city is Cheyenne, located in the southeastern part of the state.
Wyoming is known for its wide-open spaces, national parks like Yellowstone and Grand Teton, and its strong cowboy and ranching heritage. The state flower is the Indian paintbrush, and the state bird is the western meadowlark. Wyoming has a population of over 580,000 (as of July 2024), making it one of the least populated states in the country.

Frequently Asked Questions
- → Why aren’t Alaska and Hawaii in their real location on the map?
On this map, Alaska and Hawaii have been moved to keep all the states together in one compact image. In reality, Alaska is far to the northwest of the continent, above Canada, and Hawaii is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, far from California. This repositioning is a common layout trick to make the map easier to read.
- → Are these maps ideal for coloring?
Yes, these maps use black borders only with no fill background, making them perfect for coloring activities with crayons or markers.
- → Are these maps good for school projects?
Yes! The printable state maps can be used in classrooms, geography assignments, or homeschooling lessons.
- → What materials do I need to use these maps?
Just print them and use crayons, colored pencils, or markers. Lamination and dry-erase markers can make them reusable.
- → Can I resize or adjust these printables before printing?
Yes, you can change the scale or fit settings in your printer options to make the printables smaller or larger as needed. This works for coloring pages, mazes, sudoku, worksheets, and more.
- → How can I print these printables?
Click on the download PDF button to save the file to your device. Open it using a web browser or PDF viewer like Adobe Acrobat Reader. Then, click the print icon or use the shortcut (usually Ctrl+P or Cmd+P), choose your printer, adjust settings (orientation, margins, number of copies, etc.), and print.
- → Why is there still a margin even when I selected full page with 0 margins?
This may happen if your printer doesn’t support borderless printing. Many home printers add a small automatic margin. To fix this, check if your printer allows borderless printing or adjust the layout to fit inside the printable area.
