2018 Map of Fort Laramie

About this map

The Fort Laramie National Historic Site anchors this survey of the eastern Wyoming plains, where the North Platte River and Laramie River converge. This landscape reflects a deep layered history of westward migration and military presence, illustrated by the proximity of the town of Fort Laramie to landmark heritage points. Significant commemorative sites are preserved here, including the Mary Homsley Burial Site and the Fort Laramie Cem. The surrounding terrain is defined by dry watercourses such as Cottonwood Draw and Sand Draw, alongside irrigation infrastructure like the Fort Laramie Canal Rd. Further south, the map identifies more isolated points of interest such as Bovee and the Sandercock Number 3 Reservoir, which speak to the rural and agricultural character of Goshen County beyond the central river junction.
