How to Use This Burns Flat, Oklahoma Map

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

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.

Burns Flat emerges from the vast, open plains of Oklahoma where the horizon pulls the sky taut against the earth. It lies 13.9 miles east-southeast of Elk City, OK (from Elk City, OK: bearing 108°T), and is situated 16.2 miles southwest of Clinton. Boggy Creek carves a shallow, wandering path through the native grasses, marking the landscape with a quiet tenacity that defines the local topography. The air here holds the scent of dry soil and sun-warmed wheat, a stark, clean clarity that persists even when the wind carries the fine, rust-colored dust of the region. To the east, the sunlight catches the surface of Clinton Lake, reflecting a pale, silver light that punctuates the otherwise matte expanse of the prairie. Beyond the immediate fields, the terrain remains unadorned and honest, offering a wide, unobstructed view that forces the gaze to reconcile the immense scale of the land with the small, singular presence of the structures built upon it.

Burns Flat carries the weight of a mid-century military legacy, having evolved from a former airfield into a civilian space that still echoes with the industry of its past. The economy reflects the resilience of the surrounding plains, balancing agricultural roots with the steady, rhythmic pulse of the local oil and gas sectors. Residents often find their way toward the Washita County Wildlife Management Area, where the land is left to its own devices, providing a sanctuary for native species that prefer the solitude of the tallgrass. Life in Burns Flat moves at the deliberate pace of the seasons, dictated by the planting cycles and the shifting intensity of the wind. Even as the decades pass, the character of the place remains firmly anchored to the red earth, maintaining a stoic, unassuming identity that values the quiet dignity of a day’s labor beneath an endless, vaulted sky.

About This Burns Flat Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Burns Flat, Oklahoma. Coordinates: 35.34894, -99.170362. 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 Burns Flat includes the ZIP code (73624), telephone area code (405), county seat of Washita County (New Cordell), and school district assignment (Burns Flat-Dill City 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.
