Laramie River flows by Historic Ft. Laramie #297195383
Description
Islands split the stream of the Laramie River at the place where wagons crossed to enter Fort Laramie on the Oregon Trail. Large flat area on the east side of the fort used as a camp site for wagon trains moving on the trail westward. The islands made the crossing easier because there were no deep channels to contend with.
