1950 Map of Rockeagle

About this map

The Fort Laramie Military Reservation (Abandoned) dominates the northern landscape of this Goshen County survey, reflecting the area's transition from 19th-century frontier defense to a 20th-century ranching and infrastructure corridor. This plateau, known as Harmony Heights, rises above the drainage of Deer Creek and Cherry Creek, where modern utility lines and a pipeline now cross the former military grounds. Evidence of earlier settlement remains at the Old Doty Ranch Site and the small station at Rockeagle, while prominent landmarks like Doty Hill and Horseshoe Butte define the topography south of the creeks. The presence of numerous Windmill sites across the flats suggests a reliance on groundwater to support the livestock operations that replaced the military garrison. This 1950 data, revised in the early 1990s, provides a clear view of the high plains just before late-century development further altered the rural landscape.
