National and State Register
Graves Camp Rural Historic District
Larimer County
The Graves Camp Rural Historic District is important for its association with the prominent Warren Live Stock Company, which operated throughout southern Wyoming and northern Colorado between the 1880s and 1960s.
A segment of the Trappers Trail, also known as the Fort Laramie Road and later the Denver and Cheyenne Stage Road, traverses the district that connected northern Colorado and southern Wyoming during their frontier, territorial and early statehood periods from the 1830s through the 1890s. Further study of the property is likely to reveal substantial information about its historic use.
