Happy National Dog Day to all the four-legged adventure buddies! 🐾💛

From scenic drives and mountain trails to exploring the wide-open spaces around Cody Yellowstone, there’s no shortage of places to make memories with your best friend by your side.

But when adventure takes you into the wild, a little extra planning goes a long way. Keep your pup leashed, clean up after them, give wildlife plenty of space, and always check the rules for wherever you’re exploring.

If Yellowstone National Park is on your itinerary, remember that pets are only permitted in developed areas and must stay within 100 feet of roads, parking areas, and campgrounds. They’re not allowed on trails, boardwalks, in thermal areas, or in the backcountry.

So pack the camera, grab the treats, and get ready for an adventure worth wagging about.

AD | Get outta Dodge and head west to Cody Yellowstone and make your wild west dreams a reality 🤠

Cody, Wyoming is where the West is still wild! It’s just 1 hour from Yellowstone’s East Entrance and is the perfect home base for exploring the park. You’ll quickly realize Cody steals the show with its rugged cowboys, dude ranches, chuckwagon dinners and Wild West adventures. Here are some of my favorite things to do there:

🏡 Stay at a Ranch
Cody has no shortage of ranch stays just minutes from Yellowstone’s East Entrance. From all inclusive dude ranches to more traditional stays where you plan your own adventure there are
so many great options! Some favorites are UXU Ranch, Bill Cody Ranch, Blackwater Creek Ranch, Elephant Head Lodge and P***a TeePee Resort

🏇Visit the Cody Nite Rodeo
Cody is known as the Rodeo Capital of the World and after attending the nightly rodeo it’s easy to see why! You’ll watch riders take on bucking broncos with stunning mountain views and an
electric atmosphere.

️ 🪦 Explore Old Trail Town
Step back into the Wild West at Old Trail Town. It’s built on part of the original site of Cody City and features historic buildings relocated from around Wyoming to curate an authentic 1980’s
town

🥩 Enjoy a Chuckwagon Dinner
2 Mules Chuckwagon serves an authentic Western style dinner cooked over an open fire with Wild West stories and great company. For around $60 you’ll get to enjoy steak, biscuits, beans, salad and a delicious Dutch oven cobbler

🐴 McCullough Peaks Wild Horse Expedition
This private full day tour with Grub Steak Expeditions takes you into some of Wyoming’s wildest landscapes. Spot wild horses and pronghorns at McCullough Peaks then head to Shell for dinosaur tracks, Native American petroglyphs and scenic canyons

🥃 Have Drinks at a Dive Bar
Two of my favorites in downtown Cody are the Silver Dollar Bar and the Irma Hotel. The Irma was built by Buffalo Bill and still has its original cherrywood backbar gifted to him by Queen Victoria inside

🐎Horseback Riding at Bill Cody Ranch
You can horseback ride at Bill Cody Ranch even if you aren’t staying there! They offer three rides most days and I recommend the last ride for that golden hour glow over the desert rocks surrounding the ranch

🦬 Drive through Yellowstone’s East Entrance
Most tourists miss Yellowstone’s East Entrance but staying in Cody gives you a front row seat to one of the area’s most scenic drives! Follow the river through the canyon surrounded by unique rock formations and tons of wildlife along the way. There are also fewer crowds and
shorter wait times at the east park entrance!

Happy Birthday to the National Park Service! 🎉🏔️

Today, we’re celebrating 110 years — and the incredible places that have become part of the American story, including the one that started it all: Yellowstone National Park.

And from Cody, Wyoming, this iconic landscape is right within reach.

There’s the Yellowstone you’ve seen in photographs… and then there’s the Yellowstone you experience for yourself. Like the roar of a waterfall, steam rising from a thermal basin, bison crossing the road, or a canyon stretching toward the horizon.

Here’s to 110 years of the National Park Service, and to the adventures waiting in Yellowstone. 🦬

There’s still time to squeeze one more adventure out of summer. 🤠

The Cody Nite Rodeo has just one week left before the summer season comes to a close. So if a night of cowboys, cowgirls, dust, lights, and good old-fashioned Western excitement isn’t already on your bucket list… consider this your sign.

Make your last summer adventure one to remember.

08/23/2026

The Old West is waiting…

There’s still time to follow the call to roam. Take the scenic route, chase the last days of summer, and find yourself somewhere a little more West of Worry and North of Hurry.

Because the best memories aren’t always the ones you plan—they’re the ones you live.
