1955 Map of Sevenmile Spring

About this map

Old Fort Fetterman Road and the modern Fetterman Road traverse this high plains landscape of Albany County, following historic overland routes through the northern Laramie Mountains. The terrain is defined by a series of drainages and seasonal water sources, including the namesake Sevenmile Spring and the meandering path of Sevenmile Creek. This 1955 survey, updated with 1979 aerial photography, captures the persistence of these historic transportation corridors alongside mid-century infrastructure like a north-south Pipeline and Telephone Line. Remote landmarks such as Mud Springs in the northwest corner provide fixed points for genealogists and historians tracing early Wyoming trail networks and the movement of goods and people between frontier outposts.
