Filmmaker behind ‘Hole in the Wall’ documentary joins County 10 Podcast
(Wyoming) – Stephen Tucker loves telling stories about Wyoming’s rich history. The Sheridan-based filmmaker has done everything from full blown documentaries, to capturing local weddings and shooting promotional videos for companies that hire his expertise. One of those promotional shoots was for the Johnson County Tourism Association. Tucker’s Big Horn Films was tasked with short videos highlighting the wild west history of the Kaycee, Wyoming area. After going on a tour of the historic “Hole in the Wall” with historian Clay Gibbons of Worland, Tucker said he knew this project was going to turn into more. “We started down this road, the more we learned, the more we were like this is just incredible history,” Tucker told us. “We interviewed many different people who have incredible history connected to these outlaws. Hearing some of theses stories, it was like, I want to learn more.” Stephen said with all of the content they gathered, there was no possible way to boil it down to just a five minute highlight piece and respectfully tell the full story. He told the tourism group he’d still put those short videos together, but also wanted to devote his own personal time into producing a full feature film. Today the Hole In The Wall area, southwest of Kaycee, is best known for its outlaw lore. Where notorious criminals like Butch Cassidy and the Wild Bunch would disappear into a red rock natural fortress. The remote area of red sandstone cliffs is both naturally beautiful and steeped in 1800’s history. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsgh65Qn3dc ‘Hole in the Wall’ is screening at several film events in the western United States this year. Tucker recently joined County 10 to tell us more about the project, fun history he learned along the way and an opportunity to see the film this fall in Lander. All of the information about the film can be seen here. You can find the full podcast simply by clicking the player down below.

Podcast: WRTA’s ‘Fare Free Summer’ and what’s next for local transportation with Tim Nichols
(Fremont County, WY)- In this County 10 Podcast episode you hear from with Tim Nichols of WRTA about the agency’s Fare Free Summer and what it means for riders across Fremont County. The program began June 1 and, thanks to corporate sponsorships and private donations, will continue through the end of August. Nichols explains how WRTA serves the county through a fixed-route 96-mile loop running seven times daily, along with on-demand microtransit in Riverton. Riders can access WRTA by calling 856-WRTA or finding more information at gowrta.com. The conversation also covers rising transportation costs, increased ridership during the fare-free period, and how even a small fare can be a barrier for people on fixed incomes. Nichols also addresses recent state and federal funding reductions connected to expired post-pandemic relief funds, as well as an upcoming three-quarter percent sales tax ballot measure that would support local ground transportation, air services, and ambulance services. Nichols shares that WRTA is a government-operated public transit authority under the Fremont County Association of Government and encourages the public to ask questions, request transparency, and learn more about how the system serves Fremont County.

Coffee Time: Hudson Mayor Sherry Oler discusses recent water, sewer rate increases
(Lander, WY) – The KOVE 1330 AM / 107.7 FM Today in the 10 interview series Coffee Time continued today with host Vince Tropea, who recently spoke with Hudson Mayor Sherry Oler, who stopped by to chat about the water and sewer utility rate increases that go into effect for the town starting today, July 1. The water and sewer rates will go up $5 each a month, $10 total, for Hudson residents. Mayor Oler said the town has struggled for years with complaints about the taste and quality of its drinking water, despite the water meeting safety standards. After taking office, Mayor Oler requested a Level 1 water study through the Wyoming Water Development Commission, which was completed in 2025. The study identified why Hudson’s water treatment system is expensive to operate and recommended several potential long-term solutions, including exploring a new water source and the possibility of regionalizing water service. A Level 2 study is now underway to look at those options and provide residents with information before any long-term decisions are made. At the same time, the town has faced serious wastewater infrastructure concerns, Mayor Oler explained, adding that Hudson narrowly avoided major failures at its sewer lift station in both 2023 and 2024, including one incident in which a pump nearly failed completely and forced the town to notify the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality. The town has since secured a free pre-engineering report, presented during a public meeting in April, which estimates that approximately $5.8 million in wastewater system improvements are needed. With only about 277 utility customers, the cost of those projects presents a significant financial challenge, Mayor Oler said, adding that under Wyoming statute, municipal water and wastewater utilities must be self-supporting, meaning user rates must cover operating costs, maintenance, employee salaries, and future repairs in a reserve fund. Mayor Oler said demonstrating that Hudson is making progress toward financial sustainability is also critical to receiving state loans and grants, some of which are scored partly on a community’s willingness to invest in its own infrastructure. To help meet those requirements, the Hudson Town Council approved the rate increase, and the council also approved annual increases at the same level over the next four years, a strategy Mayor Oler said is intended to gradually build the utility funds rather than implementing the much steeper increases recommended by two independent rate studies. You can hear more about the next steps the town plans to take in the full Coffee Time interview with Mayor Oler below.
