How to Use This Yerington, Nevada Map

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

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.

Yerington occupies a quiet expanse of high desert floor where the air carries a distinct, sharp clarity. It lies 28.9 miles southeast of Dayton, NV (from Dayton, NV: bearing 127°T), and is situated 34.7 miles east-southeast of Carson City. Dust motes dance in the amber light of late afternoon, catching the glow that settles over the sagebrush and the flat, sun-bleached plains. To the west, the jagged, snow-dusted peaks of the Sierra Nevada silhouette the horizon, looming as a distant, silent boundary against the vast sky. The Walker River winds through the landscape just a mile away, its presence marked by a thin, verdant ribbon of vegetation that contrasts against the arid earth. Nearby, Mountain View Park offers a small, green reprieve from the heat, while the rugged, shadowed depths of The Canyon lie only two miles out, carved into the surrounding terrain.

Yerington maintains a steady, deliberate pace defined by its agricultural roots and the legacy of early mining days that once drew hopeful laborers to the region. The economy remains tethered to the soil, with wide fields stretching toward the horizon, sustained by the water that flows through the valley. A few miles away, the waters of Hinkson Slough provide a starker, quieter topography, reflecting the pale blue of the Nevada sky. Life here moves in sync with the seasons, from the planting cycles of the local farms to the long, still evenings that seem to stretch indefinitely. The character of Yerington is found in the unadorned storefronts and the quiet persistence of those who call this high, dry basin home, indifferent to the clamor of the world beyond the ridges.

About This Yerington Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Yerington, Nevada. Coordinates: 38.955432, -119.110031. 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 Yerington includes the ZIP code (89447), telephone area code (775), county seat of Lyon County (Yerington), and school district assignment (Lyon County 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.
