CODY , 79 miles east along US-14
and the North Fork of the Shoshone River from Yellowstone, was
the brainchild of investors who, in 1896, persuaded "Buffalo
Bill" Cody to get involved in their development company,
knowing his approval would attract homesteaders and visitors alike.
During summer, tourism is big business, but underneath all the
Buffalo Bill-linked attractions and paraphernalia, Cody manages
to retain the feel of a rural Western settlement. It's certainly
not a place where you'd expect avant-garde painter Jackson
Pollock to have been born and raised.
The wide, dusty main thoroughfare, Sheridan
Avenue , holds an array of souvenir and ranchwear shops,
and is the scene of parades and rodeos during the annual Cody
Stampede , held on the weekend of July 4. Between June
and August there's a rodeo every night at the
open-air stadium on the road to Yellowstone, at 421 W Yellowstone
Ave (8.30pm; $10-12; tel 307/587-5155).
