A new road to discovery – Alpine Science Institute opens Central Wyoming College Way

The Alpine Science Institute (ASI) of Central Wyoming College is thrilled to announce the grand opening of its new private road, a milestone seven years in the making.

Located approximately ¼ mile closer to town than the previous entrance, this dedicated roadway—Central Wyoming College Way—provides improved access to ASI and its outdoor learning environment.

The new address for ASI is 44 Central Wyoming College Way in Lander, Wyoming.

The project is the result of years of collaboration between ASI’s neighbors, state lands officials, the highway department, the City of Lander planning office, and CWC staff. Their efforts have helped create a safer, more convenient entryway for students, faculty, and visitors.

What to Know About Access:

Parking:
The new road leads directly into the ASI parking lot. Those with a CWC parking permit may park beyond the river on ASI property, while all other visitors are encouraged to use the main lot and walk or bike in.

Foot Traffic Only Beyond the River:
To maintain the integrity of ASI’s natural environment, vehicle access is limited past the designated parking area.

This dedicated road is more than just an infrastructure improvement—it’s a commitment to sustainability, education, and community access. Come explore and experience all that ASI has to offer with its improved accessibility!
