Explore Bokoshe, Oklahoma, 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 Bokoshe, Oklahoma. 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 Oklahoma 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 Bokoshe.
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.

Bokoshe defines itself by the rhythmic persistence of Buck Creek, which carves a narrow, winding path through the heavy, red-clay earth that characterizes this corner of the land. It lies 50.8 miles southeast of Muskogee, OK (from Muskogee, OK: bearing 140°T), and is situated 13.0 miles northwest of Poteau. The horizon is punctuated by the rising silhouette of Bald Knob, a solitary peak that watches over the low-lying plains as the afternoon sun casts long, copper shadows across the fields. Only three miles to the west, the surface of Carter Lake remains a quiet mirror for the shifting clouds, providing a still counterpoint to the restless movement of the wind through the grasses. The light here at dusk holds a particular, bruised intensity, turning the dust of the roads into a fine, glowing powder that settles on the stillness of the evening.
Bokoshe carries the weight of a long history shaped by the extraction of the earth, as the regional economy was historically tethered to the deep seams of coal that once drew workers from across the territory. While the industrial intensity of those earlier decades has softened, the imprint of that labor remains in the architecture of the streets and the collective memory of the families who stayed. Residents often look toward the wider expanse of the landscape, sometimes venturing out to the quiet reaches of Robert S. Kerr Lake or the distant, shadowed dips of Cache Bottom to seek a reprieve from the heat. Life in Bokoshe persists with a steady, unadorned resolve, moving in sync with the seasons that turn the surrounding timber and farmland from vibrant green to a muted, winter gray.

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.
