Shoshoni is located at the crossroads in the center of the state of Wyoming. It was founded in the early 1900s. Shoshoni has a thriving Senior Center, a K-12 school, is close to many outdoor recreation opportunities, and much more! In the summer, the WindRiver Flywheelers Antique Tractor & Engine Show takes place in Shoshoni.
