The famous elkhorn arch at Main Street, Afton, Lincoln County, Wyoming, USA 1964. It is still the world's largest arch made of elk antlers. Spanning 75 feet (23 m) across the four lanes of Highway 89, the arch consists of over 3000 elk antlers. Stores and a supermarket line the street and there is a Texaco garage and a Ford dealership.
