Explore Caliente, 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 Caliente, 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 Caliente.
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.

Caliente occupies a narrow, rugged corridor where the earth seems to have parted to allow passage for the Meadow Valley Wash. It lies 61.0 miles north-northwest of Mesquite, NV (from Mesquite, NV: bearing 337°T), and is situated 55.1 miles northwest of Ivins.
The light here has a way of sharpening the edges of the world, catching the iron-rich dust and the steep, serrated walls of Clover Creek Canyon that rise abruptly from the valley floor. Four miles to the north, the jagged silhouettes of Tepee Rocks loom against an unforgiving, cloudless sky, their weathered stone faces marking the boundaries of a landscape defined by the relentless scarcity of water. Just two miles away, the verdant, sheltered oasis of Kershaw-Ryan State Park offers a cooling contrast to the harsh, sun-bleached expanse of the surrounding high desert.
Caliente grew from the steel veins of the railroad, a place where the rhythm of life was once dictated by the heavy pulse of steam engines moving through the canyon. The economy, long tethered to the transit of goods and the slow, deliberate work of maintenance, retains a quiet gravity that feels removed from the frantic pace of the wider world. While the tracks remain a constant, silent presence, the spirit of the place is held in the modest, sturdy architecture of its buildings and the resilience of those who favor the solitude of these dry, expansive plains. Far to the west, the arid silence remains undisturbed, save for the occasional reach of a traveler seeking the stillness of the basin, far from the distant, neon-dusted horizons of the state's larger centers.

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.
