Current Goal

10/28/2005 - Looks like the Colonel has hit the west pretty hard and needs a change of scenery. He's not picky, take him anywhere you go.

Thanks

Just for old-times sake, I want to ride through the states of the old Pony Express. The present day states of Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Nevada, and California before I return to the town bearing my name; Cody, WY.

About This Item

Buffalo Bill TB

William F. "Buffalo Bill" Cody was born in Iowa in 1846. In 1859, he tried his luck as a prospector in the Pikes Peak gold rush, and the next year, joined the Pony Express, which had advertised for "skinny, expert riders willing to risk death daily." Already a seasoned plainsman at age 14, Cody fit the bill. After 143 years it's time to let Buffalo Bill ride the Pony Express again. For more info see:

Retrieve It from a Cache 7/10/2004 OCBTracker retrieved it from 3rd Annual SoCal Crush Picnic California   Visit Log

Gonna get this one to another stagecoach stop the next time we head there - there's a place called Cold Spring Tavern which has been around since the 1800's and which was an active Pony Express road. There isn't a cache there... yet. But we hope to place one there, and if so, this bug'll be there the day it's placed!
