About this map

The Laramie Mountains landscape along the border of Converse and Albany Counties is defined by its dramatic elevation changes and deep drainages. High points like School Section Mtn and Camelback Mtn overlook a network of seasonal and perennial waterways, including Wagonhound Reservoir and La Bonte Creek. Within the Medicine Bow National Forest, the terrain is carved by significant geographic features such as La Bonte Canyon and West Fork Canyon, which historically dictated movement through these high-altitude ranges.

Modern access is provided by local routes like Fetterman Road and County Road 16, while the interior remains accessible via forest tracks like Curtis Gulch Trail and the South Fork Labonte Trail. The map details many family-named or descriptive landmarks such as Old Maids Draw, Prill Draw, and the Sierra Madre range, providing a precise look at the geography surrounding Downey Park in the early twenty-first century.
