Most other Wyoming forts have long since disappeared back into the landscape. Fort Bonneville (also called Fort Nonsense), located near Daniel, was a fur trade fort in use from 1832-1839. Fort Reno on the Bozeman Road in the Powder River country had an even shorter life-span (1866-1868).
Fort Fred Steele (1868-1886), located off Interstate 80 east of Rawlins, has some standing ruins. It, like Fort H.W. Halleck (1862-1866; now on private ranch land near Elk Mountain) and Fort Sanders (1866-1882; at the southern edge of Laramie), was established by the military to protect workers as they built the Union Pacific Railroad.
