Cheyenne-Black Hills Stage Route and Rawhide Buttes and Running Water Stage Stations
Cheyenne-Black Hills Stage Route and Rawhide Buttes and Running Water Stage Stations, Historic stagecoach route district in Wyoming, United States.
The Cheyenne-Black Hills Stage Route includes two stations, Running Water and Rawhide Buttes, connecting Wyoming to South Dakota through essential transportation points.
Operating from 1876 to 1887, this route transported passengers, freight, and gold between Cheyenne and Deadwood until railroad construction made it obsolete.
The stations along this route served as mail distribution centers and witnessed numerous encounters between settlers, Native Americans, and outlaws in the American West.
The historic district contains remnants of structures, including a barn at Running Water Station, located near the intersection with the Texas Trail.
During the 1880s, Running Water Station experienced a mining development period before the neighboring town of Lusk became the railway terminal.
