About this map

The North Platte River defines the northern reaches of this Wyoming landscape, where the settlement of Glenrock transitions from riverfront plains to the rugged ascent of Monkey Mountain. This 2015 edition captures the contemporary layout of the historic Parkerton area and the adjacent Glen Rock, showing how modern transportation corridors like the Interstate 25 and Big Muddy Rd follow the natural paths carved by the river valley.

Further south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex as numerous drainage systems, including Deer Cr and Little Deer Cr, weave through the foothills. The map documents rural infrastructure such as True Ranch Rd and Mormon Canyon Rd, which provide access to the higher elevations of Converse County. This network of canyon roads and creek crossings serves as a detailed guide for understanding the relationship between the Platte’s water resources and the upland ranching country.
