These Wyoming highway maps are the original reason I homesteaded
this site, and started teaching myself about building web pages in
the first place. I was browsing through Andy Field's Wyoming
Highways pages in 1997, and I came across a page where he said he
wished he had some highway maps to go along with all the text he had
written about them. As a cartographer, I wanted to gain experience in
creating maps for the Web, so I contacted him. We e-mailed back and
forth for several months, working on this project in our spare time -
and the maps indexed here are the result. If you're looking for more
about Wyoming highways than just maps, I'd recommend that you start
at Andy's
site. It's very thorough and well-researched, and his pages
provide links to my maps wherever appropriate.

Legend for the "Wyoming highway
routes" chart below:
|
|
"Main" US highways (1- or 2-digit numbers) are
highlighted in blue, and are listed numerically (there are
two exceptions; see below).
|
|
"Branches" of main highways (3-digit numbers and
Alternate routes) are highlighted in light blue - and are
listed under their "parent" highway. If you are
looking for a particular 3-digit US highway, but don't know
its "parent" - just take the last two digits. For example,
the last two digits in US 310 are "10" - so its "parent"
highway is US 10.
|
|
Two routes that have never served Wyoming (US 10 and US
91) are highlighted in pink. They are listed only because
one each of their "offspring" (US 310 and US 191) do
serve Wyoming.
|
|
Links highlighted in green go to maps showing the
current route of each highway.
|
|
Any links highlighted in yellow go to maps showing
historic route(s) for a highway.
