Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

The movie title is probably my all time favourite title. It's so oomph.
Anyway, apparently Utah was a favourite among outlaws, and especially
to Butch Cassidy, who roamed around these parts. It's at this spot that
he challenged the local sheriff to come out and fight with him, risking
all the women and children that were in the convoy. The story goes that
the sheriff shouted back that he wasnt' a coward, but he was smart and
didn't want to spill innocent blood.

The Cassidy draw is just outside what's the official demarkation of Bryce
Canyon, but it's in the area.
