He and various members of the • gang worked incognito at the WS Ranch — set between Arizona’s Blue Range and San Carlos Apache Reservation to the west and the Nancy Coggeshall rugged Mogollon Mountains to the east — from February 1899 For The New Mexican until May 1900. Descendants of pioneers and ranchers acquainted with Cassidy tell stories about the man their ancestors knew as “Jim Lowe.” Nancy Thomas grew up hearing from her grandfather Clarence Tipton and others that Cassidy was a “man of his word.” Tipton was the foreman at the WS immediately before Cassidy’s arrival. The ranch sits at the southern end of the Outlaw Trail, a string of accommodating ranches and Wild Bunch hideouts stretching from Montana and the Canadian border into Mexico. The country surrounding the WS Ranch is forbidding; volcanic terrain cleft with precipitously angled, crenelated canyon walls defies access. A “pretty hard layout,” local old-timer Robert Bell told Lou Blachly, whose collection of interviews with pioneers — conducted PROMIENT PLACES - between 1942 and 1953 — are housed at the University of New OUTLAW TRAIL Mexico.

  • Did Wild Bunch Rob Parachute Train Or Were Authorities Fooled?
    Did Wild Bunch rob parachute train or were authorities fooled? Left to right front row seated, Sundance Kid, Bill Kilpatrick and Butch Cassidy. Back row left to right News Carver and Harvey Logan aka Kid Curry. Photo courtesy Loyd Files Research Library Museum of Western Colorado. By Kathy Jordan On June 7, 1904, a train robbery gone bad might have brought down Kid Curry, one of the most wanted members of the Wild Bunch gang – and then again, maybe not. The Wild Bunch was immortalized in the 1969 film, “Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid.” They attained legendary fame in the early 1900s by robbing banks, transports and trains. When practicing their trade in Colorado and Utah, they made their home at “Robber’s Roost” in Southwest Utah. Our tale began shortly after 11 p.m. when Train No. 5 stopped at Parachute. As fireman John Anderson waited outside for the train to start up again, he watched a man board the tender, in which coal to fire the engine was stored. As the train got under way Anderson boarded and went to the rear of the tender to tell the man he must get off. Instead, Anderson found himself looking down the barrels of two revolvers. The gunman told Anderson to go to the engine. When they reached the engine the gunman continued to point one of the guns at Anderson while aiming the other gun at the face of engineer Allison. The gunman instructed Allison that at two different locations he was to whistle as if he were whistling for stock on the track and that he was to stop the engine when he saw a campfire on the side of the track.

  • Hole in the Wall Area and Outlaw Cave Directions and Information
    Hole in the Wall Area and Outlaw Cave Directions and Information The Hole in the Wall area is approximately 40 miles southwest of Kaycee. It was a place of refuge for outlaws after the Johnson County War in 1892. After this event locals who had been unfairly painted as rustlers and attacked by the big cattlemen were understandably ambivalent about people called outlaws by the other side. This made it a great place for rustlers to reside and escape the law. Outlaws, such as Butch Cassidy, the Sundance Kid, Harvey Logan (Kid Currie), and “Flatnose” George Currie, were known to frequent the area. Local “outlaws” included brothers Al and George Smith, among others. The name “Hole in the Wall” probably came from Al Smith. Smith had a cow camp at the junction of Buffalo Creek and Spring Creek by which the stage road/mail route passed. When asked by the stage driver where he should put Smith’s mail Al Smith replied “Just stick it in a hole in the wall,” referring to the white bluff running alongside the stage road near the cabin. The name stuck and eventually evolved not just to include the cabin location, but the entire valley. The Hole in the Wall valley, flanked by a red wall on one side and mountains on the other, made it was an easy area to contain livestock; while its remoteness, good water, grass, and friendly neighbors were ideal for outlaws retreating with stolen livestock. In only recent years has one specific spot along the Red Wall been considered to be “the Hole in the Wall.” Previously it was known as the Red Gap or Outlaw Trail and is located where a small wildlife trail ascends to the top of the Red Wall on the East side of the valley.
