Outdoor Adventures

HOLE-IN-THE-WALL is a remote pass in the Big Horn Mountains near Kaycee, WY. From the late 1860s to around 1910, the pass was used frequently by numerous outlaw gangs. The Hole-in-the-Wall Gang and the Butch Cassidy’s Wild Bunch gang met at the log cabin, which is now preserved at the Old Trail Town Museum in Cody, WY. The area was remote and secluded, easily defended because of its narrow passes, and impossible for lawmen to approach without alerting the outlaws.

The Hoofprints of the Past Museum will hold their annual Hole-in-the-Wall Tour fundraiser on Saturday, June 10th, 2023. To learn more about the tour call the museum at 307-738-2381.
