The Buffalo Bill Dam, just outside of Cody, Wyoming


The Buffalo Bill Dam was the tallest dam in the world when completed in 1910. Today it is a National Civil Engineering Landmark. There's a walkway along the top of the dam, and visitors can look down 280 feet to the Shoshone River below.

    We used to live about 70 miles from Cody, touring that dam was very interesting, thanks for hosting.

    I have been in Wyoming in 1971 when no tourists came to the States, only relatives this was my case with my aunt, my mother's sister. I remember so well this trip, these landscapes I had never seen.
