How to Use This Bauxite, Arkansas Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Bauxite, Arkansas. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Arkansas or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Bauxite.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Bauxite remains defined by the deep, ruddy signature of the earth beneath it, a landscape where iron-rich clay stains the soil a permanent, oxidized crimson. It lies 3.3 miles south-southwest of Bryant, AR (from Bryant, AR: bearing 213°T), and is situated 3.8 miles east of Benton. Sunlight here catches the high, open crowns of hardwoods and pines, casting long, ochre shadows across the undulating terrain that stretches toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Alexander Mountain. To the west, the quiet passage of Holly Creek traces a path through the brush, its waters moving with a deliberate, muddy weight, while the stillness of Lake Pauline offers a flat, reflective surface that mirrors the shifting clouds of the afternoon. A few miles away, the protected expanse of the Bauxite Glade/Woodland Complex preserves the native flora, where the pale blooms of spring dogwoods stand in stark contrast to the heavy, ferruginous dust that defines the local horizon.

Bauxite emerged from the raw potential of the ground itself, built upon the discovery of the aluminum ore that provided the town its name and its singular purpose. The rhythm of the place was long dictated by the extraction and processing of this mineral, an industry that scarred the earth with wide, open pits and reshaped the local economy into one of singular, industrial focus. Though the fervor of the mining era has receded, the town retains a quiet, resilient character, holding onto the remnants of its heavy-labor heritage while the land slowly reclaims the margins of the old works. Life in Bauxite follows a slow, deliberate cadence, far removed from the bustle of the distant cities, punctuated only by the occasional truck on local roads or the sound of wind moving through the thick undergrowth toward the deeper, more secluded reaches of Stillhouse Hollow.
