Wyoming County Map
(Note that Yellowstone National Park is not shown on this map. Instead, Yellowstone is divided between Park and Teton counties for sales tax collection purposes and for court jurisdictional reasons. Also note that none of the towns (except Casper and Cheyenne), forts, or geographical features are indicated on this map. It is useful, therefore, only for becoming familiar with county names and locations. A Wyoming highway map may be the most useful for locating the other sites on the list).
