Mission Statement

Join the Cowboy Faction – Red Sash Outfit

Protecting the Sacred Legacy of the Apache and the American West

At The Cowboy Faction – Red Sash Outfit, our mission is to honor the original stewards of this land—the Apache—and preserve the full, untold story of the American West.

Before outlaws and settlers arrived, the Apache people lived, thrived, and fought for this region. Geronimo, a fearless warrior, resisted forced removal and fought to protect his family and people. This land is soaked in history—both painful and powerful.

From those sacred Apache grounds, to the Mormon pioneers like Walter A. Eager who carved a life from stone and timber, to the infamous Ike Clanton and the Cochise County Cowboys who rode these hills—the land around Casa de Rues holds stories that shaped the Southwest and the nation.

We are building more than a museum. We are preserving a legacy.

Through historical preservation, education, reenactments, and public support, we aim to pass down the truth—not just the legend—of the Old West to future generations.

About Our Museum & The Granary

High in the White Mountains of Springerville, Arizona, our museum stands at the crossroads of legend and history.

At the heart of our site is the oldest known granary in Apache County, hand-built by LDS pioneer Walter A. Eager in the late 1800s. Constructed with no nails, no felt, and no shortcuts, this historic granary was crafted with dovetail joinery and rugged stonework—surviving over a century of harsh mountain weather.

This granary was here when Geronimo’s warriors still passed through, when townspeople hid their women and children from Apache raids, and when Ike Clanton’s gang rode out from their ranch just 10 miles east. The granary is even featured in the classic Western film, Return of the Texan.

It now stands as the centerpiece of our living museum, surrounded by authentic Native American artifacts, cowboy relics, pioneer tools, and Old West memorabilia—including items connected to James Hale, an ancestor killed by one of the Cowboys in 1886 outside the Brighton Saloon.

We’re restoring the granary with care, adding a new roof, and building a versatile museum hall where guests can explore the past, attend reenactments, host Western weddings, and walk the same trails the legends once did.
