1968 Map of Point Of Rocks

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Point of Rocks serves as a critical junction in this Wyoming landscape, where high-desert transportation corridors converge along the banks of Bitter Creek. The map documents a layering of westward migration history, showing the path of the Overland Trail running parallel to the heavy infrastructure of the Union Pacific railroad. Of particular interest to historians is the Point of Rocks Stagecoach Station, a preserved link to the pre-railroad era when stage lines were the primary connection across the territory.
