There are brown information signs indicating the Wyoming Game and Fish office turn-off, and the Silverfox Steakhouse (Armor’s) is right at the corner of Energy Lane and Hwy 220 (watch for the sign). Energy Lane winds a bit, but stay on it to the bottom of the hill where it dead ends at the Wyo Game and Fish office. There is also a sign at the gateway to the Game and Fish property. We will be using the entrance on the west side of the building; look for the sign on the lawn indicating Handicap Access and Meeting rooms.
