Motel Mustache
Now we're talkin. Welcome to Hays, Kansas, once one of the wildest towns in the old west, now boasting over one thousand motel rooms! Wild Bill Hickok was sheriff of the town in 1867, and roughly 30 homicides took place in that span with vagrants like Calamity Jane, Wyatt Earp and "Buffalo Bill" Cody taking lives every other night over dimly-lit games of whisky-infused five card stud.

Not that its history is entirely violent, Hays also boasts a number of artists, including Alexander Gardner, who makes these nifty three-dimensional photos you may or may not have seen:


Four Day's Distance: 22.62 miles

I'm going back to the Phesant Run Inn this summer to find that girl in the picture.
