Review:
Historic Buffalo , Wyoming, is a symbol of Old West heritage tucked away in the Bighorn Mountain foothills.
Buffalo is at the eastern end of the 47-mile Cloud Peak Skyway Scenic Byway that runs through Bighorn National Forest and the Bighorn Mountains to the town of Ten Sleep.
History buffs will appreciate over a dozen buildings in town which are on the National Register of Historic Places, including the 1880 Occidental Hotel where the protagonist in the western novel, The Virginian, caught his man.
Visitors can view over 15,000 Old West artifacts at the Jim Gatchell Museum, and visit the nearby Hole-in-the-Wall Outlaw Hideout of the Sundance Kid, and the Wild Bunch.
