But it also teems with Old West history that is salted with iconic figures of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Some who left their mark include famed outlaw hunter Joe Bush, infamous bounty hunter Jack Watson, the larger-than-life cattle baron Preston Nutter, and Robert Leroy Parker, better known as Butch Cassidy.
