1902 Map of Laramie
USGS Topo · Published 1902About this map
Laramie serves as the focal point for this early 20th-century survey of the high plains, situated at the crossroads of the Union Pacific R. R. and the winding Little Laramie River. The map reveals a frontier landscape transitioning from military outposts like Ft. Sanders to a burgeoning ranching and transport economy. A network of family-named settlements and operations, such as Sartoris Ranch, Homers Ranch, and Bacons Ranch, indicates the importance of livestock and land claims during this era of western expansion.
