With a population of around 60,000, Casper, Wyoming is the second largest city in the state. Casper earned its nickname "The Oil City" due to its history as a major hub for the oil industry. Located along the North Platte River in east-central Wyoming, Casper offers residents and visitors a variety of outdoor recreational activities as well as arts, culture, and history.

History

Casper was founded in the late 1800s as a stopping point along the Oregon Trail. The city was named after Fort Caspar which was built nearby in 1859 and named for 2nd Lieutenant Caspar Collins who was killed in the 1855 Battle of Blue Water Creek. Once oil was discovered in the area in the late 1880s, Casper experienced rapid growth and expansion. The development of the Salt Creek Oil Field in the 1890s established Casper as a significant oil producer and led to substantial population growth. By the 1920s, Casper had become a major economic hub and prominent city in Wyoming thanks to the oil boom.
