Explore Mounds, 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 Mounds, 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 Mounds.
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.

Mounds occupies a stretch of high, scrubby prairie where the red earth seems to hold the warmth of the sun long after the light has retreated into the western horizon. It lies 6.2 miles south-southwest of Glenpool, OK (from Glenpool, OK: bearing 208°T), and is situated 9.0 miles south-southeast of Sapulpa. The landscape is defined by a rhythmic rise and fall of terrain, punctuated by the persistent presence of the Cross Timbers that transition into open fields. To the north, the gentle descent toward Middle Duck Creek provides a narrow artery of moisture, while the prominent silhouette of Twin Mounds rises four miles away, acting as a silent, stony sentinel over the plains. The air here carries a dry, mineral clarity, often stirred by a restless wind that sweeps across the grasses, bending them in waves that mimic the slow, tectonic patience of the soil itself.
History lingers in the quietude of Mounds, a place shaped by the convergence of indigenous heritage and the transformative reach of the oil industry that once pulsed through these subterranean strata. While the boom-time clamor of derricks has long since faded into a hum of quiet agricultural persistence, the legacy of the land remains etched in the local character, which values a deliberate, unadorned pace of existence. Travelers passing through might find a moment of stillness at Unknown Park, five miles distant, or ponder the deep, shadowed silence of Hoot Owl Hollow six miles out, where the geography creates a natural amphitheater for the evening chorus of crickets. It is a place where the modern world feels distant, replaced by the persistent, honest weight of the Oklahoma plains and the enduring memory of those who first recognized the strength of this particular patch of ground.

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.
