Wind River Canyon. Wonderful stratigraphy. When I was last there somebody had placed plaques along the road at various strata describing where you are in geologic time. I think it starts at pre-Cambrian and ends in holocene (or reversed, depending on which direction you're traveling).
Oh yeah, it's also a beautiful site. B

If you're going to be in the northeast corner of the state, Devil's Tower is pretty cool. It's the giant rock standing alone that was the focus in Close Encounters of the Third Kind. If you're in the western part of the state, Yellowstone and Jackson Hole are worth seeing. Other than that, Wyoming is pretty desolate. Cheyenne and Laramie are well worth a stop if your tank is empty or you have to take a leak. Otherwise, keep driving.
