HOLE-IN-THE-WALL

THE ULTIMATE OUTLAW HIDEOUT

The Red Wall fortress, embraced by lush creeks and rich grasses under the Bighorn Mountain range, is nicknamed Hole-in-the-Wall country. This fifty-mile long red sandstone formation defined the bounds of a utopic home base for cattle rustlers and popular outlaws in the late 1800's. Regulars included famous characters like Butch Cassidy, The Sundance Kid, and the Hole-in-the-Wall Gang – lending a hand in conflicts with notable lawmen like Joe LaFors during the Wilcox Train Robbery and the Hole-in-the-Wall Fight. 

Uncover evidence of 4,000+ year old Native American presence in the area, while learning the mystery behind ancient Native American myths. Unveil the truth from the frontlines of the Johnson County War with hometown hero Nate Champion and the Wyoming Stock Growers Association. Discover how Johnson County's authentic cowboy culture inspired renowned author Owen Wister to write his 1902 novel, The Virginian: A Horseman of the Plains. 

HOLE IN THE WALL is a documentary feature film that is as textured, majestic, and inspiring as the land it explores and celebrates. Rustic stories and the legends passed down by local families revive the heirloom spirit of our old American West.
