The History of Pahaska Teepee

A free talk by Bob Richard
Thursday, December 21, 2023
Noon–1 p.m.
Join us for the December presentation of 2023 in our “Local Lore with Bob Richard” series of free talks hosted by our McCracken Research Library.
For this talk Bob shares stories and photographs from throughout the history of Pahaska Teepee, the hunting lodge William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody’s built just outside the East Entrance of Yellowstone National Park at the turn of the 20th century.
With a wealth of knowledge about the Cody and Yellowstone National Park areas, Bob has a lifetime of stories to share with future generations. The “Local Lore with Bob Richard” series continues every other month throughout the year. Most talks take place on the third Thursday of the month, with the exception of June (second Thursday).
The talks in this series are gathered in this YouTube playlist.
