How to Use This Broken Bow, Oklahoma Map

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

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.

Broken Bow rises from the dense, pine-shadowed expanse of the Ouachita foothills where the air holds the heavy, resinous scent of timber and damp earth. It lies 53.3 miles east-northeast of Paris, TX (from Paris, TX: bearing 61°T), and is situated 10.5 miles north-northeast of Idabel. Sunlight filters through the canopy in slats of amber, illuminating the red-clay soil that defines the footprint of the land. Only a mile away, the quiet waters of Broken Bow City Lake mirror the sky, while the rhythmic passage of Yashau Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the undergrowth. To the north, the distant silhouette of Devils Backbone provides a jagged, dark boundary against the horizon, reminding the traveler of the ancient, slow-moving geology that anchors this corner of the state. Within the quiet perimeter of Indian Hills Park, the wind moves through the needles of the shortleaf pines with a low, persistent sigh that seems to carry the weight of centuries.

Broken Bow maintains a pulse synced to the steady harvest of the surrounding forest and the quiet endurance of its people. The local economy finds its roots in the timber industry, a trade that has shaped the lives of families here for generations, leaving stacks of milled pine as a common sight along the periphery of the roads. Beyond the industrial rhythm, life moves with a deliberate patience, often drawing residents toward the cooling spray of Presbyterian Falls or the solitude found along the Beaver Lodge Nature Trail. Those who wander further afield might find the open expanse of Winship Prairie, a stark contrast to the thick woodland that dominates the immediate view. As the sun dips below the tree line, the town settles into a deep, velvety twilight, marking the end of a day defined by the labor of the land and the quiet beauty of the inland woods.

About This Broken Bow Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Broken Bow, Oklahoma. Coordinates: 34.029276, -94.739104. 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 Broken Bow includes the ZIP code (74728), telephone area code (918), county seat of McCurtain County (Idabel), and school district assignment (Broken Bow Public Schools).

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.
