2017 Map of Esterbrook

About this map

The settlement of Esterbrook serves as a central point in this high-altitude landscape, where the northern reaches of the Medicine Bow National Forest meet the transition between Converse and Albany counties. Local history is anchored by the Norcross Family Cem and family-named landmarks like Esterbrook Hill and Sunset Hill. The drainage patterns are defined by the winding paths of Elkhorn Cr, N Horseshoe Cr, and Three Cripples Cr, while the terrain is punctuated by distinctive geological features such as Castle Rock and The Limestone. The presence of Ullman Park and various springs like Cooper Spring indicates a landscape shaped by both early ranching and more recent forest management. This network of gravel and forest roads, including Esterbrook Rd and Harris Park Rd, connects the scattered homesteads and natural landmarks within the Laramie Range foothills.
