When a listing near Wright mentions a lot number, the Gillette plat map is where those numbers come from. Covered here for Gillette: where plats are filed, plat versus tax map, and the details that matter to buyers.
Tracking down the Gillette plat map
For a subdivision near Wright, look for the plat book reference on the parcel record; bring that to the recorder's office or its online index.
Getting to the right map
Begin with the Campbell County Beacon site; it covers every tax parcel around Sleepy Hollow and Wright. If you only know roughly where the land is, pan along the nearest road and click the parcel itself, which applies near Sleepy Hollow as much as anywhere. If the land is near Wright, a pop-up or side panel usually lists the owner of record, acreage on the tax roll, a parcel ID and sometimes recent sales.
Land on the county line
Campbell County meets Powder River County, MT, Converse County, Crook County, Johnson County, and Sheridan County, and each of those keeps its own parcel map. A tract near the line by Sleepy Hollow can show up in two county records, so check the adjacent map too. The Platbookmapper state page lists each neighboring county map across Wyoming.
Gillette and the county around it
Gillette lies within Campbell County, Wyoming, which means parcel data comes from the county. Gillette is also the county seat, so deeds and plats are filed in town. For land near Sleepy Hollow, the municipality handles matters such as zoning, permits and utilities inside its limits, and the county still keeps the parcel and deed records. Acreage past the town limits toward Sleepy Hollow usually answers to county rules instead.
Places you'll see on the map
Gillette holds the county offices, which is where the courthouse records live. You'll also find Wright and Sleepy Hollow, where town lots give way to larger tracts. Roughly 47,498 people call Campbell County home (Census estimate, 2023) spread over about 4,802 square miles. Campbell County was formed in 1911, so old deeds can run back a long way.
Backing up the map with records
The map is an index, not the title: recorded deeds, plats and easements for land near Sleepy Hollow are kept by the County Clerk. If the land is near Wright, have ready the book and page shown in the record panel so staff can find the deed fast.
When a plat changes
Lots near Wright can be combined or reconfigured by a replat, search the index for replats of the same subdivision; street vacations near Sleepy Hollow show up in the records too.
Limits of the parcel data
Acreage on the record is an assessed number; just a licensed surveyor can set the real lines on land around Sleepy Hollow. Closer to Sleepy Hollow, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month can take weeks to appear.
Two different maps
The Campbell County Beacon site draws parcels for taxes, but the recorded plat is what the deed relies on.
Metes and bounds instead
Acreage around Sleepy Hollow outside a subdivision is often described by metes and bounds or survey description; look for a recorded survey for land near Wright.
How land is described here
Wyoming uses the Public Land Survey System, so rural legal descriptions near Wright cite section, township and range. Each section is nominally a mile square, about 640 acres, and a township holds 36 of them, though real sections near Sleepy Hollow vary in size. Copy the legal description from the record for the parcel near Wright when you talk to a surveyor.
Offices that can help
If the acreage or value on a parcel near Wright looks off belong with the County Assessor, which maintains the tax roll. Zoning, permits and septic questions near Sleepy Hollow need the planning or permitting office, and the answer depends on jurisdiction.
What a plat shows
For a parcel near Wright, the sheet usually includes lot and block numbers, dimensions and bearings, street rights-of-way and easements.
Taking the map into the field
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, which helps when you're standing on land near Sleepy Hollow, so load it before you lose signal. A saved image of the lot near Wright and its lines keeps working without signal.
Requesting the plat
Closer to Wright, many recorder offices offer an online index, otherwise call or visit with the reference; copy fees are usually small.
