Inmates assigned to forestry crews, under the direction of the Division of Forestry, fight wild land fires in Wyoming, South Dakota and Colorado.
Inmates also complete work on state lands and provide community services.
Another component of the institution is the Wyoming Boot Camp which provides an alternative to long-term incarceration for youthful offenders. A highly structured 120-day program running from 4 a.m. to 9 p.m., it includes three hours of physical activity. Youthful offenders are sentenced to the boot camp by a recommendation from the sentencing judge and cannot have previously been incarcerated in an adult penal institution. Due to recent construction at the facility, the conservation camp has increased design capacity from 74 to 174 offenders and the boot camp has increased design capacity from 30 to 56 offenders.
