Trail Maps by Loren C. Bishop
The 11 map series presented here details the "Emigrant, State, Pony Express, and Freight Roads" of early Wyoming. The Historical Landmark Commission of Wyoming in 1957 worked with Loren C. Bishop to map the historic trails of Wyoming. Bishop extensively mapped the emigrant trails, stage roads, and freight roads. The Wyoming State Archives is caretaker of several of Bishop's map series, including Ranch Maps, Site Maps, and Emigrant Trail Maps.
