How to Use This Carlisle, Oklahoma Map

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

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.

About Carlisle, Oklahoma

Carlisle is a locality in Sequoyah County, Oklahoma, United States. It is a small community with a population of 483. The population density is 7.1 people per km². Carlisle is located at 35.5007°N, 95.0263°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 74962.

Carlisle occupies a quiet expanse of red-earthed plains where the horizon stretches thin and taut against the sky. It lies 25.8 miles southeast of Muskogee, OK (from Muskogee, OK: bearing 131°T), and is situated 13.7 miles west-northwest of Sallisaw. The land here holds the stillness of the deep interior, characterized by the persistent, dry breath of the wind and the muted hues of the Cross Timbers. To the west, the faint, jagged silhouette of Merford Ridge breaks the flat line of the earth, while the local topography dips into the gentle, shadowed depressions of Boggy Hollow. A mile away, the quiet passage of Negro Creek carves a narrow path through the soil, offering a thin ribbon of moisture that sustains the stubborn oaks and wild grasses. At dusk, the light turns the dust into a fine, suspended gold, illuminating the way the landscape seems to inhale as the temperature drops, settling into a profound, heavy silence that belongs entirely to the plains.

Carlisle bears the weight of a long memory, rooted in the complex history of Indian Territory where the legacies of the Cherokee, Choctaw, Osage, and Comanche peoples remain etched into the very soil. The economy has long leaned on the stubborn resilience of agriculture and the sporadic, rhythmic pulse of the oil industry, which once defined the ambition of the region. Residents often find their way toward Robert S. Kerr Reservoir, where the expansive water provides a necessary contrast to the parched fields, or spend their leisure time wandering the quiet trails of Robert S. Kerr Lake, a recreational space that serves as a sanctuary for local wildlife. Life in Carlisle moves with the deliberate pace of a season, indifferent to the haste of distant places, preferring the steady, predictable turning of the wheat harvest and the enduring strength of those who have made this red dirt their own for generations.

About This Carlisle Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Carlisle, Oklahoma. Coordinates: 35.500651, -95.026344. 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 Carlisle includes the ZIP code (74962), telephone area code (918), county seat of Sequoyah County (Sallisaw), and school district assignment (Vian 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.
