}}Spotted Horse is an unincorporated community located in Campbell County, Wyoming, United States. Its current population is two.[2] The town is on U.S. Route 14/16, at the head of Spotted Horse Creek, a tributary of the Powder River. The undeveloped Spotted Horse coalfield is north of the townsite.[3]

The town was named after a Native American. Its post office closed in 1964.[4]

History

The Astorian expedition camped near the future Spotted Horse townsite in 1811.[5]

A small community existed at the location in the 19th century. By about 1900 a general store and post office was established by Solon and George Walker. The present bar was established as a store and gas station in the early 1920s by A.L. Pringle. A school was established in the 1920s. A dance hall was destroyed in a 1944 tornado.[6]
