Dozens of remarkable bronzes line the city streets and public places of Sheridan, Wyoming, a remarkable western town in the Bighorn Mountains of Wyoming just south of the Custer battlefield. From Sacajawea to everyone’s favorite rhinoceros, they have come to reflect the progressive western spirit of a town whose main street still thrives with western stores, antique stores, the famous King Ropes Supply and museum patronized by the British royal family, galleries, bars, bakeries, coffee shops, vintage candy stores and even its original J.C. Penney’s Store still open for business!
Their polo field draws top players from around the world–at present, the top Argentinian team. The Sheridan rodeo, about ready to commence, presents events unseen elsewhere, including a Native American Wild Pony relay race complete with painted ponies and indigenous dress and warpaint characteristic of the participating tribes. Golf courses, hunting, skiing, fishing, world-renowned dude ranches and unparalleled beauty make the town a popular destination for travelers from all over the world. If you’re coming to Wyoming, don’t miss it.
