About this map

The town of Glendo occupies the northeastern corner of this Platte County landscape, where the high plains meet the intricate drainage systems of the Laramie Range foothills. The terrain is defined by a network of seasonal and perennial waters, including the winding Horseshoe Cr and the deeply cut Bobcat Canyon. Prominent landmarks such as Sibley Peak, Anvil Peak, and Sommers Hill provide significant vertical relief against the surrounding draws.

For researchers, the map preserves the location of the Horseshoe Cem near Spring Creek and several isolated water sources like Bear Spring, Willow Spring, and Box Springs. This 2021 survey reveals a landscape of ranching and transit, where S Glendo Hwy and Interstate 25 navigate the high ground between the Middle Bear Creek and Whiskey Gulch drainages, illustrating how modern infrastructure follows the natural corridors of the Wyoming high country.
