Come visit the first homestead cabin site in what is now Big Horn, Wyoming. In 1878, O.P. Hanna decided to build his cabin near a clear creek, in a sheltered meadow with a magnificent view of the Bighorn Mountains. O.P. Hanna was the first permanent settler in what later became Sheridan County. He dedicated years as a founding father of business and local government. Tour will be hosted by the Big Horn City Historical Society.

Included in the tour is a visit to the Bozeman Trail Museum that is housed in a building constructed in 1879 by the Rock Creek Stage Line and was the local blacksmith shop.  Some items of interest in the museum are dental tools, a pump organ, portions of the 1881 post office, artwork, photograph multiplex of pioneer families, blacksmith and farm implements, Indian artifacts, and other collectibles from local families.

Maximum 11 participants. $5 suggested contribution
