2017 Map of Lusk

About this map

Lusk serves as the focal point of this eastern Wyoming landscape, situated at a vital junction of road and rail where the Niobrara River flows eastward. The town's grid is detailed with specific local landmarks such as the Eastern Wyoming College Lusk Outreach and Lusk Municipal Airport. This modern survey reveals a region defined by its drainage network, where multiple watercourses including Duck Cr and Old Woman Cr carve through the high plains. The transition from the structured street names of the town, like Lincoln Way and Overland Way, to the rural character of named tracks such as Beer Can Rd and Ruffing RD illustrates the proximity of this community to the surrounding cattle country. For those looking into local genealogy, the Lusk Cem is clearly indicated north of the town center, providing a fixed point for family history research within the county seat.
