Natrona

Natrona has served as an energy-producing centre within central Wyoming since the late 19th century. Centered on Casper, it lies beside the North Platte River, where the open High Plains meet the foothills of Casper Mountain. Oil and mineral development helped shape the area’s modern identity, while the river corridor long guided travel across the interior West. Fort Caspar, a reconstructed military post associated with the 1860s frontier, recalls the era when emigrant trails and stage routes crossed this part of Wyoming.
