Goshen County, Administrative county in eastern Wyoming, United States
Goshen County encompasses 2,232 square miles of High Plains territory with Torrington serving as the county seat and primary population center point.
The county received its name from Goshen Hole, a valley documented by John C. Fremont during his 1843 expedition along the Oregon Trail.
The population of 12,498 residents maintains agricultural traditions through numerous farms and ranches that contribute to Wyoming's cattle production leadership.
