Cody, named for its legendary founder, Buffalo Bill Cody, remains as full of Old West adventure as it was during the days when Bill himself roamed Wyoming. Serving as the Eastern gateway to Yellowstone National Park, Cody is just a few miles away from pristine wilderness where actual buffalo can still be seen. The town attracts tourists and cowboys alike with reenactments of famous shoot-outs, restored frontier buildings and with the Cody Stampede, which the town hosts every July 4.

OPEN May 15 through SEPTEMBER 30, 7 days a week Take a walk through history. 27 historic frontier buildings have been reconstructed on the original townsite of Cody, many furnished with period artifacts. Old Trail Town is also home to the Museum of the Old West.
Lots of western history here. I like that the buildings are authentic and were relocated here for historic preservation. I loved seeing the cabin that Butch Cassidy the Sundance Kid and the Hole in the Wall gang hid out in, Curly's cabin (General Custer's Indian scout), as well as the burial place of Jeremiah Johnston. (Yes, his real name was Johnston, not Johnson, like the movie with Robert Redford). Lots of authentic western and Indian artifacts. I love ghost towns and the old west so this looked exactly like a western town would have back in the day and I like that it is located at the very spot where Buffalo Bill Cody first built "Cody City". I enjoyed our visit very much. Took about 1 1/2 hours to walk though everything.

Beautiful drive around the reservoir and the dam. The visitor center has a very informative film about the history of the dam construction. It's truly amazing how i was built with the tools and equipment they had at the time. Go the speed limit so you can catch the amazing views of the surrounding mountains and gorgeous Shoshone River.
