Following the Outlaw Trail From Robbers Roost to the Canadian Border
There has been a lot written about outlaws such as Butch Cassidy, the Sundance Kid, and Kid Curry. Nearly all of it is based on stories passed down from one generation to another. Some outlaws, such as Matt Warner, told their stories after retiring from the outlaw way of life. Others, such as Kid Curry, left their stories with friends who published them years after the outlaw's death. Then there was Butch Cassidy's sister who narrated a very interesting book with convincing evidence that the famous outlaw did not, in fact, die in South America. Others like Pearl Biddlecome lived near outlaw hideouts as children and either knew them or had parents and grandparents who knew them.
Regardless of which stories you believe, the result can be simply put that following outlaw escapades leads to visiting very remote country and enjoying some of the most scenic lands this country has to offer. During the next few months, Off-Road will publish a series of stories that follows the Outlaw Trail from southern Utah to the Canadian border. You can also find other stories about the trail at www.outbackusa.com. Details on guided tours, guidebooks, and entertaining videos are also available there. - Off-Road
