2012 Map of Casper

About this map

The N Platte River anchors this 2012 survey, winding through the urban heart of Central Wyoming. To the south, the terrain rises sharply toward the base of Casper Mountain, where the Garden Creek Waterfall and Hillcrest Springs mark the transition from the city's residential grid to the steep slopes of the Laramie Range. The map details the institutional and suburban growth of the area, featuring the Casper College campus and the extensive grounds of Highland Cem. Historical movement through the valley is preserved in the alignment of the Emigrant Trl north of the river. Residential developments like Midwest Heights, Thorndale Acres, and Allendale illustrate the mid-to-late 20th-century expansion that connected the city with its neighbors, Mills and Evansville, creating a continuous corridor of activity along the riverbanks.
