Buffalo Bill in North Platte Nebraska
Buffalo Bill called North Platte home for more than 40 years. His Wild West and Congress of Rough Riders was started here in our own Cody Park as the Old Glory Blowout in 1882, which also gave birth to the modern spectator sport of Rodeo. Today the headquarters of his huge ranching empire is preserved as a state historical park by the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission. His mansion and barn have been wonderfully restored and are filled with Cody and Wild West show memorabilia. You can also tour a log cabin that served as a line shack on the far north reaches of the ranch along the Dismal River.

Droning Buffalo Bill Cody's Rest Ranch, North Platte, Nebraska, by Sheriff Mike
Buffalo Bill Ranch State Historical Park, known as Scout's Rest Ranch, is a living history state park located west of North Platte, Nebraska. The ranch was established in 1878 with an initial purchase of 160 acres south of the Union Pacific tracks by William (Buffalo Bill) Cody. The 4,000 acre ranch was sold in 1911 and has been under the management of the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission since 1964. The 25 acre historic state park, added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, is open weekdays from April to October. The house and outbuildings can be toured, including a museum documenting Cody's life from a Pony Express rider to his Wild West shows.During the time of owning the Cody-North Ranch, in 1878, Cody began buying land surrounding North Platte. The first purchase of land was 160 acres for $750, south of the Union Pacific tracks that run through North Platte. Cody purchased nearly 4,000 more acres adjacent to North Platte.[1] An eighteen-room mansion on the property which was a treeless prairie.[5] Cody had land in Kansas that had many tall, established trees and wanted trees on his new ranch. Al Goodman, his brother-in-law, discovered why trees would not grow on his new property or the North Platte area. Goodman found issues of water absorption and planted many cottonwoods and box-elder around the property, able to withstand the conditions. The ranch now had many growing trees. This information was shared with the people of North Platte to increase tree population in the area.[2]
Barn, view to the north
Louisa (Cody's wife) and their daughters moved to North Platte in February 1878. They monitored the property, where Cody wanted to retire. Cody showed his new land and brought out family, friends, and celebrities. These guests, along with his family, spent time with the cowboys employed on the ranch. The ranch grew with the help of the Goodmans, who maintained the ranch and managed the high-grade livestock and thoroughbred horses.[1] By 1885, 1,200 acres were planted as corn, 100 acres of alfalfa, 50 of broomcorn, and a small oat field. The ranch was operated with 80 horses and 30 men, rising to 60 men in busy seasons.[3] When the trees grew, the southern portion of the ranch turned into a wooded park with deer, several young buffaloes, and a large lake. This area of land would be called “Scout’s Rest Ranch”.[2] Cody had the words “Scout’s Rest Ranch” painted on the roof of the large barn, so that it could be read from the Union Pacific tracks a mile away.[1]
This ranch was revolutionary for the time. Cody imported many blooded cattle and thoroughbred horses at a time when that was not common. The land was transformed from treeless prairie to a forested area. Despite advancements and profitable years, operating costs were high and Cody sold the ranch in 1911 for $100,000.

Chimney Rock - Designado como Sítio Histórico Nacional Chimney Rock, Chimney Rock é um dos marcos mais famosos e reconhecíveis para viajantes pioneiros nas trilhas do Oregon, Califórnia e Mórmon, um símbolo da grande migração ocidental. Localizada a aproximadamente seis quilômetros ao sul da atual Bayard, na borda sul do vale do rio North Platte, a Chimney Rock é uma formação geológica natural, um remanescente da erosão dos penhascos na borda do vale do norte Platte. Um pináculo delgado sobe 325 pés de uma base cônica. A imponente formação, composta por camadas de cinzas vulcânicas e argila brule que datam da Idade do Oligoceno (34 a 23 milhões de anos atrás), se eleva a 480 pés acima do vale do rio North Platte.

Cânions de Loess - Quando Todd e Laura McWha preservaram sua pradaria Loess Canyons de 304 acres ao sul de Brady em dezembro passado, era na verdade a segunda pradaria que eles haviam preservado para sempre. Anteriormente, eles haviam completado uma servidão de conservação em uma pradaria de Sandhillstrecho intocado de Birdwood Creek. Graças ao financiamento fornecido pelo Projeto Eólico Broken Bow II, eles foram capazes de adicionar os Loess Canyons ao seu legado de conservação da pradaria protegida no Condado de Lincoln. Também foi acrescentado ao legado de conservação do Nebraska Land Trust (NLT) nos Loess Canyons, onde 3.278 acres foram agora permanentemente conservados por meio de cinco acordos de proprietários de terras.

Forte Kearny - O primeiro Fort Kearny foi construído em 1847 na cidade de Nebraska, consistindo de uma casamata solitária de troncos situada no topo de uma colina sobre o rio Missouri. Os soldados que retornavam da Guerra do México passaram o inverno lá. No entanto, apenas um ano depois, os militares decidiram que o local foi mal escolhido e um novo forte foi construído a cerca de duzentas milhas a oeste na margem sul do rio Platte e a meio caminho entre Forts Leavenworth, Kansas e Fort Laramie, Wyoming.
