Introduction

The history of Casper is as colorful and varied as the spectacular and stark landscape it inhabits. Casper is a rail, processing, distributing and trade center for both the state and the region. The second largest city, although some will argue that it has surpassed Cheyenne in size, is located almost in the center of the 9th largest state. It is a city based on farming and ranching strongly supported by a mineral - rich base of oil and coal.
Casper, a true capital of Cowboy country, luckily has survived good times and bad, oil booms and busts, prosperous farming years and terrible blizzards. It still manages to not only survive but also grow and remain the very heart of one great state.
