How to Use This Guion, Arkansas Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Guion, 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 Guion.

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.

Guion occupies a narrow, quiet corridor where the earth rises in sudden, verdant folds toward the silhouette of Meeks Mountain. It lies 19.9 miles west-northwest of Batesville, AR (from Batesville, AR: bearing 303°T), and is situated 9.4 miles south of Melbourne. Rocky Bayou carves a winding path through the limestone-heavy terrain, its current acting as a persistent architect of the local topography. Beyond the immediate banks, the land dips into the shaded depths of Mike Hollow, where the air grows cool and heavy with the scent of damp moss and decaying hardwood. The quality of light here, filtered through a dense canopy of oak and hickory, possesses a bruised, golden quality at dusk that turns the limestone outcrops into pale, ghost-like markers against the darkening woods.

Guion emerged from the pulse of industrial necessity, anchored by the rhythmic labor of the railroad and the extraction of mineral wealth from the surrounding hills. While larger destinations like Greers Ferry Lake draw the weekend crowds, the economy here remains tethered to the quiet persistence of regional transit and the quietude of the backcountry. Life moves with the deliberate pace of a freight train passing through the valley, a sound that has defined the acoustic character of the place for generations. Residents find their solitude in the vast, untamed reaches of the Hell Creek Natural Area, where the land resists the intrusions of modern velocity and maintains a stubborn, ancient stillness.

About This Guion Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Guion, Arkansas. Coordinates: 35.925351, -91.940704. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Guion includes the ZIP code (72540), telephone area code (501), county seat of Izard County (Melbourne), and school district assignment (Melbourne School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
