Explore Baker, Nevada, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Baker, Nevada. 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 Nevada 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 Baker.
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.

Baker maintains a stoic presence where the high desert floor meets the rugged, upward thrust of the Snake Range. It lies 108.7 miles north-northwest of Cedar City, UT (from Cedar City, UT: bearing 328°T), and is situated 44.1 miles east-southeast of Ely. Lehman Creek carves a persistent, silver thread through the arid landscape, its snowmelt waters offering a cool reprieve before the land widens into the vast, sage-dusted expanse that defines the horizon. The air here holds a crystalline clarity, thin and sharp enough to make the distant, jagged peaks feel close enough to touch, while the light at dusk settles in long, bruised purples across the shadows of Young Canyon. Baker Reservoir reflects the shifting palette of the sky, a quiet basin that anchors the surrounding valley in a stillness so profound it seems to vibrate with the hum of insects and the occasional rustle of wind through dry brush.
Great Basin National Park serves as the primary steward of the high-altitude terrain, drawing those who seek the ancient, twisted endurance of the Bristlecone Pine Interpretive Trail. The local economy persists in a delicate tension between the seasonal pulse of tourism and the steady, quiet rhythms of ranching that have defined the valley for generations. Unlike the neon-soaked centers of commerce elsewhere in the state, Baker operates on a timeline dictated by the seasonal shifts of the high desert, where the resilience of the flora and the endurance of the inhabitants are mirrored in the slow, deliberate pace of daily life. History here is found not in grand monuments, but in the weathered fence lines and the stubborn persistence of homesteaders who long ago recognized the value of this high, lonely stretch of earth.

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.
