Buffalo Wy.

Post by BigAl52 » Wed Jul 23, 2025 10:49 pm

All tied up in Buffalo Wy. We are at the KOA and its a really nice campground. I would definitely return. People are friendly and there is a creek not far from our spot. We also have a nice patio are with a fire pit and a gas grill. Ill be adding some pictures during our stay here. Here is a few of our campsite. Tomorrow I may look around for Sheriff Longmire.

Enjoy our little town. The wife and I are heading to the mountains for a few days.
You might want to check out Ft Phil Kearny just up the road. The Occidental Hotel here was a rocking place back in the Old west. Hole in the Wall is down by Kaycee, an outlaw hangout back in the day. Too bad Crazy Woman Canyon is closed right now, it’s a nice drive with a great trout stream.

We were in Wyoming once and that was to see Devil's Tower. It's one state that I would like to explore but
we never seem to have time. Maybe this fall.

Beautiful pics Al. Like others mentioned Wyoming is on our list too. Dipped thru the NE corner on our way to South Dakota some years ago but that’s it.

Thanks Centaur. My wife has never been here but I have several times but its been a while. I plan to take here over the top and down the other side. Shell Canyon is a must.

I've been through that area many, many times. It's one of my favorite areas of Wyoming.

We are on main street eating breakfast. Rosies cafe. Im looking around at all the things that they have inside and Sir Henry would love it here. Lots of cool old stuff. Anyone remember the Pixy Stix and look close in the background at the gum. Clove , Black Jack and Beemans. Haven’t seen them in a while

I should mention that my family history is in Wyoming where my Grandmother and my mother were both born here. Mom in Cheyenne and Grandmother in Rock Springs so I do have a connection. After eating we roamed the streets of town. We like guns in Wyoming

We watched the Longmire series at least twice and Joe Picket on Prime as well.
I have read all the books too.
Love that stuff.

Great pics. Al, thanks for sharing buddy.
I'm betting the inside of the Hotel is pretty cool.

I love this area if you cant tell. My wife is also really enjoying it. I found some more signs that I thought were cool and we took a drive to Sheridan and on the way back a different route was taken. First pic is the sign in town and next pic is a pullout spot just before getting into story Wyoming. What a cool little town that was.
