I am considering taking a cadaver dog class in Cody WY this summer.

Just looking for any input into the area.

Looking at the Atlantic,

I have been there once for about a week. My best friends dad used to own a ranch there. He owned the Heart Mountain Ranch. The Heart mtn has a lot of history to it from Lewis and clark and the indians and more. We went there when we were in High School with my buddies family and did a cattle drive. It was a blast being a cowboy for a few days.

They have a really popular 4th of July Rodeo that was fun. We watched Tuff Hedeman win it when we were there. There is a little cowboy bar/restaraunt I believe it is called The Proud Cut. They had great steaks and the hottest but best tasting hot wings I have ever had.

They have a Buffalo Bill store that if I remember right has the Bull BODACIOUS stuffed in it - full body mount.

I don't really remember much else about the town, this was about 10-11 years ago. Travis

It's been a long time since I was there, I only had my drivers license a few months last time I was there. There is a great museum, Buffalo Bill. Plus lots of other things relatively close by.

Cody is an awesome place. It is below the Eastern Gateway to the Rockies and Yellowstone on the East side. As you head west to the Yellowstone on whatever 2 lane hwy(Don't remember the number) you will see a place on the north side of the road with with a graveyard/ 1800's era bldgs and a monument showing Jerimiah "Liver Eating" Johnson on horseback as well as Jim Bridger and others . Some of the bldgs are shot up from the wild western days.

If you keep heading west on the same road you Will enter the Shoshone National Forest before you reach the alltitude of the Yellowstone. The parts I saw were rough but beautiful and loaded with
everthing from Bighorns, Elk, Moose and Mule deer to GRIZZ and black Bear in May.
Buffalo Bill's hunting lodge will be on the right side of the road as you wind your way up towards the entrance to the Yellowstone. (Can't remember the name for sure, but I think it was Penopscott's Teepee) There were a couple of hunting guides back in the 80's who had small lodges along the road if you wanted to spend some time when it was not hunting season, and the rates were reasonable.

Buffalo Bill's Museum is a great place to spend some time to learn about the West while in Cody. All kinds of Firearms from the day and many artifacts and dress of the Indian tribes in that area during the period.

It is amazing how much the terrain and climate changes Between Cody (in the far west side of prarie) and the Mountainous reaches of the Yellowstone.

If I had an opportunity go go back again I would do it in a heartbeat.

I do. I'm proud cut myself. :oops: :oops:

The Buffalo Bill Museum is awesome. Be prepared to spend a whole day there. Also the town is loaded with antique stores loaded with really cool stuff. Almost bought a full length Buffalo coat, it was way cool. Wish I'd bought it now.

Cody Wy

Val and Jay Walker, Trieven Retrievers have a ranch in Cody. They also have big game hunting. Might be worth contacting. I unfortunately do not have the information.
