Explore Cloud Creek, 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 Cloud Creek, 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 Cloud Creek.
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.

Cloud Creek emerges from the persistent red earth as a quiet study in iron-rich soil and the expansive, unyielding prairie sky. It lies 26.7 miles north-northeast of Tahlequah, OK (from Tahlequah, OK: bearing 25°T), and is situated 13.9 miles west-northwest of Siloam Springs. The landscape stretches outward in long, rhythmic swells of dry grass, punctuated by the occasional jagged shadow of a scrub oak, while the horizon remains a thin, sharp line where the heat haze blurs the distinction between land and air. Two miles from the center, the namesake Cloud Creek carves a shallow, meandering path through the limestone, its current often reduced to a silver thread during the dry season. To the west, the faint, blue silhouette of Bynum Ridge anchors the far distance, providing a permanent, jagged counterpoint to the flat, sun-bleached monotony of the immediate plains. During the late afternoon, the light here takes on a bruised, copper quality, turning the tall grasses into a field of flickering embers that seem to pulse with the dying warmth of the day.
History in Cloud Creek carries the weight of a frontier memory, carved from the deep, complex legacies of Indigenous territories and the subsequent push of mid-century industry. The economy remains tethered to the rhythmic nodding of oil pumps and the seasonal cycles of the surrounding grain fields, a life dictated by the stubborn fertility of the dirt and the volatile shifts in energy prices. Residents often venture four miles toward the Ozark Plateau National Wildlife Refuge, a sanctuary where the land is left to its own wild reclamation, or seek the quiet, still perimeter of Elkhorn Prairie five miles away to watch the water reflect the shifting clouds. Life moves with a deliberate, singular focus, colored by the proximity of Crazy Nance Hollow, where the terrain dips into cool, shaded pockets that offer a brief respite from the relentless, wind-swept exposure of the open plain.

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.
