2012 Map of Bosler

About this map

The Laramie River meanders through this high-plains landscape in Albany County, defining a region where water management and ranching operations are central to the local economy. The settlement of Bosler and nearby Bosler Junction serve as the primary hubs along the highway corridor, showing the footprint of human habitation in a predominantly open landscape. Evidence of irrigation and water control is prominent, with the Boughton Canal, Oasis Canal, and James Lake North Canal cutting across the terrain to feed agricultural interests and Diamond Lake. Historical transportation routes like Old Fetterman Rd and Howell Rd connect the isolated Diamond Ranch and other rural holdings to the broader region. This 2012 survey captures the area's transition between the natural river bottom and the engineered landscape of ditches and ranch roads.
