Yes, there is free camping in Wyoming, particularly in the dispersed camping areas within the national forests and on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land. Some of the popular national forests in Wyoming for free camping are Bridger-Teton, Shoshone, and Bighorn. Keep in mind that free camping usually means primitive campsites with no facilities, so you'll need to come prepared and follow Leave No Trace principles.
