Skeletons of Badwater Creek: A Wyoming Territory Mystery

Send us a text

16 skeletons, over an 80 year time span, were found along the banks of the Badwater Creek. 

Who were they and who murdered these people while Wyoming was still only a territory? 

Their stories were buried in old newspapers and were mysteries dating back to 1872. 

Three were found in a cave with bullet holes, twelve were soldiers found in an Aspen grove and the last was found in a burnt grave with five arrow heads. 

These mysteries may never be solved but I believe their stories should be remembered.

Step back into time when Wyoming was still a territory and it's citizens made horrifying discoveries along the bank of rural Badwater Creek.

One may even have returned to haunt the family who had disturbed her rest.
