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.

WYOMING’S
WILDEST
WAY INTO
YELLOWSTONE.
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.

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.

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.

CODY/YELLOWSTONE COUNTRY BUCKET LIST
Buffalo Bill really did create a town full of hospitality, memories and, of course,
adventure! 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. HEART MOUNTAIN WWII INTERPRETIVE CENTER
The Heart Mountain WWII Interpretive Center offers visitors a powerful
history lesson. This award-winning museum tells the stories of some 14,000
Japanese Americans who were interned during World War II.
8. HOMESTEADER MUSEUM
Step into the shoes of the early Big
Horn Basin pioneers at the Homesteader Museum in Powell. See artifacts from
1904-1950 homesteaders and explore pioneer cabins and a train caboose.
9. MEETEETSE CHOCOLATIER AND MUSEUMS
You haven’t tasted chocolate until it’s been made by a Wrangler-wearing,
belt buckle-boasting, hat-tipping cowboy. Try his mouth-watering truffles,
treats, cakes, and desserts. Stroll Meeteetse’s boardwalks; see some of the
first photographs of cowboy life at the Belden Museum; visit the old-time
Bank Museum or learn Meeteetse’s history at the Meeteetse Museum.

WYOMING WILDLIFE
WYOMING IS WILD! 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.

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.

NOW PLAYING:
WESTERN
CULTURE.
Do you wish Buffalo Bill’s Wild
West Show were still playing? 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.

boots. Then sit back and relax in
one of our unique restaurants.
Enjoy a juicy porterhouse, Rocky
Mountain oysters, wild game,
or a buffalo burger. You will find
Mexican, Italian, Asian cuisine, and
more. So whatever you’re craving,
go ahead and place your order.
Shopping and eating makes for a

TRACKS THROUGH
BUFFALO BILL’S
YELLOWSTONE
COUNTRY.
Walking (or riding, sledding, skiing,
skating) in a winter wonderland.
There’s a reason they call it the
most wonderful time of the year.
Winter adventures in Yellowstone
Country are truly spectacular.
Gear up for a snowmobile trip,
go ice skating at Homesteader
Park or strap on your crampons
to scale a frozen waterfall in the
beautiful South Fork Valley. You
can also enjoy a day schussing
down the slopes at Sleeping Giant
Ski Area or cross-country skiing
at the Wood River Valley Touring
Park or Pahaska Tepee. Or, come
visit before the first snow falls.
It’s gorgeous in the fall with the
animals roaming around and it’s still
nice enough to fish, golf, or take a
tour. No matter the season, in Cody
Yellowstone Country you’re sure to
have one wild adventure.
