2021 Map of Fort Laramie

About this map

The confluence of the North Platte River and the Laramie River anchors this landscape, where the Fort Laramie National Historic Site preserves the legacy of this vital western outpost. Settlement patterns in the town of Fort Laramie are detailed along streets such as Custer St and Otis St, while the surrounding Goshen County terrain is defined by an extensive irrigation network. The Interstate Canal and Fort Laramie Canal trace the contours of the valley, illustrating the engineering required to sustain agriculture in the high plains. Local history is physically marked on the land at the Mary Homsley Burial Site and the Fort Laramie Cem. To the south and west, the terrain rises into draws like Cottonwood Draw and Sand Draw, punctuated by smaller watercourses such as Sixmile Cr and Deer Cr, which feeds into the Sandercock Reservoir.
