Wrecks, highway robbery and rockslides awaited the stage coaches that dared venture over Birds Eye Pass. This dangerous stage line route was full of peril but despite the risks, the stage coach ran every day, except Sunday. 

Join us for a ride on this perilous route over the Wind River Canyon in Central Wyoming. There was no train or highway - only the rugged trail through Copper Mountain. 

This special edition of Pioneers of Outlaw Country celebrates the Yellowstone Highway through the Wind River Canyon by remembering why it was even built. It is a chance to experience the dangers the pioneers of Wyoming faced before the highway was built in 1924.

Brought to you by the Wyoming Department of Transportation and their Buckle Up Campaign!
