What the map covers, from Kemmerer to the back roads
On the map, Kemmerer anchors the county as its seat, with Afton, Alpine, Cokeville, and Diamondville spread around it. Organized in 1911, and named for Abraham Lincoln, Lincoln County has a long paper trail, and early deeds may cite landmarks that no longer exist. About 20,880 people lived in Lincoln County in 2023, according to Census Bureau estimates, on roughly 4,075 square miles. Sparse settlement means wide parcels. Outside Diamondville the county map reads as a quilt of large holdings with long gaps between houses. Public land in or near the county, including Bridger-Teton National Forest, Caribou-Targhee National Forest, and Cokeville Meadows National Wildlife Refuge, changes how nearby private land sells.
Work and land use in Lincoln County
Of the 937 establishments the Census Bureau counted in Lincoln County for 2022, the biggest groups were construction, professional and technical services, and retail trade. What stands out is pipeline transportation, mining (except oil and gas), and support activities for mining and drilling: those sectors make up a much larger slice of local businesses than they do nationally. A surface parcel near Cokeville may not include the minerals beneath it, which is common where extraction is active.
Property lines in Lincoln County, Wyoming
Lines on the map show roughly where one parcel near Cokeville ends and the next begins; the exact spot is a surveyor's call. Wyoming uses the Public Land Survey System, so rural deeds in Lincoln County often describe land by section, township and range, and you can match the call to the grid on the map. For walking the corners yourself, our guide to finding property corners helps; for a legal answer, call a Wyoming licensed surveyor.
Private and public hunting ground in Lincoln County
Hunters working the country toward the Sweetwater County line can use the parcel map to put a name on every woodlot and field. If you're hunting public ground like Bridger-Teton National Forest and Caribou-Targhee National Forest, use the parcel map to see where the public boundary meets private land. For licenses, seasons and public hunting land, go to the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. In the field near Kemmerer, respect posted signs and painted boundaries even where the map line looks different.
Behind the map: land records in Lincoln County
Every line on the Lincoln County map traces back to a recorded deed or plat, and the county's recording office keeps those documents. Which office that is depends on how Wyoming organizes it, so look it up on the Lincoln County government site before you call. The parcel record often lists a deed book and page or an instrument number, which is how you request a copy of the recorded deed for a tract near Kemmerer.
