How to Use This McGehee, Arkansas Map

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

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.

McGehee emerges from the flat, fertile expanse of the Delta, where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered by the distant, hazy silhouette of Backbone Ridge. It lies 54.0 miles southeast of Pine Bluff, AR (from Pine Bluff, AR: bearing 140°T), and is situated 7.5 miles north-northeast of Dermott. The land here acts as a vast, sun-drenched basin, defined by the steady, deliberate movement of Little Bayou Macon as it carves a path through the silt-rich soil only a mile away. Within the quiet perimeter of Unknown Park, the air holds a heavy, humid stillness that seems to suspend time, while the shimmering surface of Austin Brake, located three miles out, reflects the shifting ochre and violet hues of a fading afternoon. The ground is level and deep, a patient floor of earth that has long yielded to the plow, grounding the landscape in a somber, agricultural permanence.

McGehee carries the weight of its railway heritage in the rhythm of its streets, where the iron tracks once dictated the pulse of commerce and the movement of goods across the plains. The economy remains tethered to the cycles of the harvest, drawing its vitality from the surrounding fields of cotton and grain that stretch toward the edges of the sky. Life in McGehee moves with a measured, intentional cadence, favoring the slow accumulation of seasons over the frantic velocity of modern industry. Residents navigate the day under an expansive, high-vaulted sky that imparts a sense of profound clarity, transforming the routine of daily labor into a steady, quiet devotion to the soil and the legacy of those who first broke this ground.

About This McGehee Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of McGehee, Arkansas. Coordinates: 33.628999, -91.399564. 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 McGehee includes the ZIP code (71654), telephone area code (870), county seat of Desha County (Arkansas City), and school district assignment (McGehee 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.
