deer lodge prison

This trip became a little touristy we decide to see some amazing large abandoned buildings that were historic sites. We chose sites that had not been restored but instead preserved in their decaying state. This prison was the perfect location to see. Part of many other museums the prison was what we came to see.

Rawlins Jail

We decided to take a tour of a historic Jail in Rawlins, Wyoming. This jail does tours daily but may not have the funding to stay open so we decided we better see it while we can. It was a very informative tour and I would recommend to see it if your in the area. The place was very old and you can see the paint peeling away and how time is taking its toll. Very neat, here are some pictures and a link to their official website:
