Rawlins serves as a critical high-desert transit hub in Carbon County, Wyoming, defined by its position along major east-west transportation corridors. The 2012 landscape reveals a grid of residential and industrial streets, such as E Railroad St and Pacific St, which reflect the city's historical development alongside the rail line. To the north and west, the terrain transitions into open rangeland, where the Selfour Ranch stands as a testament to the region's ranching economy. Modern infrastructure is prominent, including the Rawlins Municipal Airport/Harvey Field and the US-287 Byp. Natural watercourses like Sugar Cr and Coal Cr navigate the arid surroundings, while Rawlins Cem provides a focal point for genealogical interest within the city limits. This edition documents the modern footprint of a town built on the logistics of the American West.
