CODY, WYOMING • 2016 VACATION GUIDE T H E W I L D E S T WAY I N T O Y E L L O W S T O N E CODY, WYOMING • FULL OF SPIRIT Y E L L O W S T O N E C O U N T R Y. O R G ~ 1 - 8 0 0 - 3 9 3 - 2 6 3 9 KEEPING THE “WILD” IN THE WEST. Over 100 years ago, Buffalo Bill Cody founded a western frontier town that still bears his name. It’s also still home to that famous western charm and buckaroo spirit that his settlement was built on. Every year, thousands of visitors come to celebrate the wild history and old-fashioned outdoor adventure that abounds in Cody, Wyoming. Here it’s about the wild west, wildlife, and wild experiences — and it’s waiting for you to come enjoy it all.

Cody is just a short drive from America’s first, and most famous, national park. We like to say it’s the wildest way into Yellowstone. It’s a place that’s home to some of Mother Nature’s most aweinspiring wonders. Views of Old Faithful Geyser, Mammoth Hot Springs, the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone and its Lower Falls will take your breath away. On your adventure, you’ll probably see some others enjoying the park — bison, moose, and bears all call Yellowstone home. Expore the Lamar Valley where you’ll find the largest concentration of roaming wildlife in the lower 48 states. After a full day of adventure, kick back and relax at one of Yellowstone’s great lodges or campgrounds. Wherever your trails lead, remember it all starts at Cody’s East Gate, Wyoming’s quickest and wildest way into Yellowstone.

O R G ~ 1 - 8 0 0 - 3 9 3 - 2 6 3 9 FULL DAYS END WITH A COMFORTABLE STAY. Yes, the Wild West is adventurous and full of outdoor fun. You can ride horses and rope cattle all day like a real cowboy. Luckily, you don’t have to rough it like an old-time buckaroo. After an action packed day, you’ll find some surprisingly refined accommodations. Take it easy with a stroll down the boardwalk in Old Trail Town, visit Butch Cassidy’s Hole-in-the-Wall cabin, or go shopping for a great souvenir. Enjoy some live cowboy music and a nice dinner. It’s the perfect way to end your day.

O R G ~ 1 - 8 0 0 - 3 9 3 - 2 6 3 9 ADVENTURE, ANY WAY YOU LIKE IT. Folks come to Cody for a variety of reasons, and at least a few of them involve outdoor adventure. Take a hike through the breathtaking Absaroka Mountains or a mountain bike ride across “Twisted Sister.” Cast a fly in the Shoshone River, the Greybull or the Clarks Fork of the Yellowstone River. Take on the cliffs of the North Absaroka Range for a little rock climbing. Raft the Shoshone River Canyon or kayak the tailwater of the Buffalo Bill Reservoir. However you like to experience the outdoors, you can be sure to find it in Yellowstone Country.

Here’s where he’d want you to start: 1. BUFFALO BILL CENTER OF THE WEST Often referred to as the “Smithsonian of the West,” the Center is the place to go and learn all about Buffalo Bill, the Plains Indians, and Yellowstone. Check out the unparalleled exhibition of classic Western Art and the largest collection of firearms in the world. 2. CODY TROLLEY TOUR Take a ride on Cody’s classic trolley for the “Best of Cody, Wild West Tour!” It only takes one hour and you’ll get the best overview of what Buffalo Bill’s town has to offer. 3. OLD TRAIL TOWN It’s not hard to imagine how the West really must have been after visiting the authentic buildings in Old Trail Town. You’ll see the cabin of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and the gravesite of Jeremiah “Liver-eating” Johnston. 4. BUFFALO BILL DAM & VISITOR CENTER Inspired by Buffalo Bill, it was the tallest concrete dam in the world when it was finished in 1910. The Visitor Center and audio tour provide you with information about dam construction and area wildlife. 5. CODY NITE RODEO When you come to the “Rodeo Capital of the World” there’s no doubt you’ll find one of the roughest rodeos in the West. Hold on tight and check out the roping and bull and bronc riding. Little wonder this rodeo is the longest running nightly rodeo in the country. 6. DAN MILLER’S COWBOY MUSIC REVUE The Old West comes to life with the sounds of the fiddle, the mandolin and the guitar playing classic cowboy favorites done only the way Dan Miller and his Empty Saddles Band can. Get ready to laugh, sing, and tap your feet. The whole family will enjoy it! 7.

Try his mouth-watering truffles, treats, cakes, and desserts.

Park County is renowned for wide-open spaces and abundant wildlife. Wildlife plus distance equals safety for you and for wild animals. During your visit to the area, please keep these wildlife viewing tips in mind: • • • • • • Never feed or approach wild animals–to do so can be dangerous for you and the animal. Stay in your vehicle to view wildlife along the roadside–especially bears! Young animals are rarely very far from their mothers–leave them alone. Many animals do not show signs of stress and may become aggressive if approached too closely–keep your distance. Do not surround, crowd, or follow any animal– it could result in injury to you or the animal. Deer, elk, bears and bighorn sheep are often observed near or on roadways–obey posted speed limits and keep a sharp eye during early morning and late evening periods. Enjoy your visit and remember, Wyoming’s Wildlife is Worth the Watching.

TO CODY 50 MILES #1. GEMS OF YELLOWSTONE 1. OLD FAITHFUL GEYSER The most popular attraction in the Park. It’s not the highest or the most regular, but it never disappoints. See other geysers nearby and be sure to see Morning Glory Pool, one of the Park’s most colorful thermal features. 2. MAMMOTH HOT SPRINGS Park headquarters and features some of its oldest buildings. Browse the Visitor’s Center and wildlife museum. In addition, Mammoth Hot Springs Terrace is quite magnificent, and the Terrace drive is a must. 3. LAMAR VALLEY A must-visit area for serious wildlife watchers. It’s home to bison, elk, coyote, grizzly and wolf. In fact, Lamar Valley is the #1 destination for viewing wolves. Check with Park Rangers for best viewing times. 4. GRAND CANYON OF THE YELLOWSTONE Yellowstone’s Grand Canyon is breathtaking. The Lower Falls drop 308 feet and is one of the most photographed features in the Park. There are numerous vantage points including a 3/8-mile hike (one way) to the exhilarating lip of the falls. 22 CODY, WYOMING • FULL OF ENTERTAINMENT Y E L L O W S T O N E C O U N T R Y.

Who wouldn’t want to see world-class bronc riding, cattle roping, and sharpshooting? Well, in a way you still can. At the Buffalo Bill Center of the West, you can learn all about the life and times of this iconic frontiersman. With five museums of art, artifacts, and history under one roof, the Center is not only affiliated with the Smithsonian, but is actually acclaimed by critics as the “Smithsonian of the West.” Here in Cody you can also see history come to life as the Cody Gunfighters reenact a shootout in front of Buffalo Bill’s landmark Irma Hotel. Round out your summer night with some cowboy music or the Cody Nite Rodeo, the longest running nightly rodeo in the country. It’s a wild west culture that would make Buffalo Bill himself proud.
