When a deed near Shoshoni says lot and block, look up the Lander plat map it refers to. This Lander guide covers: where to request a copy, plat versus tax map, and what to look for on the sheet.
Tracking down the Lander plat map
For a subdivision near Pavillion, the deed usually cites the plat; bring that to the recorder's office or its online index.
The free map to start with
Your first stop is the Fremont County Beacon site; it maps each assessed parcel around Riverton and Pavillion. On ground around Pavillion, type a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, then pick the result to center the map on it. Around Shoshoni, the parcel card usually lists the owner of record, assessed acreage, the parcel number and sometimes recent sales.
Taking the map into the field
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, handy when you're parked on a road near Dubois, so load it before you lose signal. A printout of the tract near Shoshoni helps when you meet an owner or agent.
Limits of the parcel data
The acreage figure is a tax-roll number; only a licensed surveyor can set the real corners for a parcel near Pavillion. If the land is near Dubois, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
Getting your bearings
Lander serves as the county seat, where most land records are kept. Smaller places on the map include Hudson, Riverton, Dubois, and Pavillion, where town lots give way to larger tracts. Around 39,815 people call Fremont County home (Census estimate, 2023) on roughly 9,184 square miles. Fremont County was formed in 1884, and some chains of title near Pavillion are long. Landmarks such as Yellowstone National Park help you orient on the aerial around Shoshoni.
Where Lander fits in
Lander sits in Fremont County, Wyoming, which means parcel data comes from the county. As the county seat, Lander hosts the courthouse, which puts the County Clerk close by. If the land is near Pavillion, city or town hall handles matters such as zoning, permits and utilities inside its limits, and the county still keeps the parcel and deed records. Lots just outside the town limits toward Pavillion often follows county rules, not municipal ones.
Land outside a subdivision
Rural land near Shoshoni that was never subdivided may have no plat at all; look for a recorded survey for land near Pavillion.
Recorded plat or GIS layer
The Fremont County Beacon site draws parcels for taxes, whereas the plat carries surveyed dimensions.
Details on the Lander plat map
Closer to Shoshoni, the sheet usually includes lot and block numbers, dimensions and bearings, street rights-of-way and easements.
Requesting the plat
With a lot near Dubois, many recorder offices offer an online index, while others require a visit or a request; small fees are common.
Offices that can help
For assessment questions about property around Shoshoni are handled by the County Assessor, which maintains the tax roll. Questions about what you can build around Pavillion need the planning or permitting office, and the answer depends on jurisdiction.
Next door to Fremont County
Fremont County borders Carbon County, Hot Springs County, Natrona County, Park County, and Sublette County, and each of those keeps its own parcel map. Acreage along the edge near Riverton can show up across two assessors' files, so look at the neighboring map before you assume the acreage. Out toward Pavillion, our state page lists each bordering county map for Wyoming.
Backing up the map with records
The map is an index, not the title: recorded deeds, plats and easements for land near Riverton are kept by the County Clerk. Inherited tracts near Shoshoni may go back through many deeds, so a title company is worth hiring on a real sale.
Sections, lots and bearings
Wyoming follows the Public Land Survey System, so rural legal descriptions near Pavillion cite section, township and range. A standard section is about one square mile, roughly 640 acres, and a township holds 36 of them, though sections near Dubois can be irregular. Keep the legal description for land near Pavillion before you request a deed or survey.
Replats and vacations
Lots near Dubois can be combined or reconfigured by a replat, so check for later filings; street vacations near Pavillion show up in the records too.
