More Info

Much of Old Trail Town should be credited to archaeologist Bob Edgar who, after realizing that many of the historical buildings and relics were starting to disappear, gathered historical artifacts to be displayed on the West side of Cody. This was the area that Buffalo Bill originally surveyed as the first site for 'Cody City' in 1895. With sights as interesting as Curly's Cabin and Jeremiah Johnston's grave, Old Trai Town is a truly impressive re-creation of the original Cody. The largest collection of its kind in Wyoming, it is absolutely unmissable for anyone visiting the area.
