How to Use This McGrew, Nebraska Map

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

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.

McGrew occupies a vast, horizontal expanse where the sky dictates the reach of the eye and the earth clings to the quiet, ancient rhythm of the plains. It lies 15.3 miles east-southeast of Scottsbluff, NE (from Scottsbluff, NE: bearing 123°T), and is situated 13.6 miles east-southeast of Gering. The North Platte River traces a silver, shallow path just a mile away, its slow current carving a subtle depression through the dry, open country. To the south, the rugged, weathered outlines of the Wildcat Hills define the horizon, their eroded slopes catching the amber light of late afternoon in a way that turns the gray grasses to sudden, fleeting gold. Not far off, the terrain deepens into the shadows of Wildhorse Canyon, while the still, reflective surface of Cochran Lake sits six miles distant, offering a rare, cool stillness in a landscape defined by the relentless, sweeping wind.

McGrew exists as a quiet anchor for the surrounding agricultural life, where the industry of cattle and crops mirrors the endurance of the early settlers who first broke this stubborn sod. The labor of the fields continues through the seasons, a steady, unadorned pulse that connects the modern machinery of the harvest to the memory of those who found purpose in this high, arid expanse. Residents often look toward the Williams Gap Wildlife Management Area for a sense of the land’s original, untamed character, finding in its protected grasses a quiet relief from the demands of the plow. Life here unfolds with a deliberate, sparse gravity, leaving the people of McGrew to measure their days not by the noise of the world, but by the shifting color of the prairie and the cold, crystalline clarity of the Nebraska stars.
