How to Use This Pershing, Oklahoma Map

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

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 Pershing, Oklahoma

Pershing is a locality in Osage County, Oklahoma, United States. It is a small community with a population of 42. The population density is 30.0 people per km². Pershing is located at 36.5934°N, 96.2753°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 74056, 74002.

Pershing occupies a quiet stretch of Osage County where the horizon pulls wide against the expansive, red-tinged plains. It lies 19.5 miles west-southwest of Bartlesville, OK (from Bartlesville, OK: bearing 237°T), and is situated 6.2 miles southeast of Pawhuska. A solitary prominence known as Wooster Mound rises slightly above the surrounding tallgrass, serving as a silent sentinel over the terrain that slopes gently toward the nearby Cochahee Creek. The atmosphere here possesses a distinct, dry clarity, especially at dusk when the fading light catches the iron-rich soil, turning the earth into a deep, burnt copper. To the west, the landscape holds the memory of the Cross Timbers, where hardy post oaks and blackjack oaks persist in thin, stubborn rows, marking the transition from woodland to the vast, open prairie.

Pershing emerged from the fervor of the oil boom, a time when the rhythmic clatter of derricks defined the local economy and redirected the fortunes of the Osage Nation. While the fervor of those extraction years has long since mellowed into a more deliberate, slow-moving pace, the legacy of the industry remains written in the scattered, rusted remnants of equipment that occasionally surface near the edges of town. Residents now look toward the recreational quietude of Birch Lake or the serene banks of Bluestem Lake, spaces that offer a stark contrast to the industrious pulse of the early twentieth century. Life in Pershing unfolds with an understated gravity, tied to the cycles of the wind and the changing seasons that sweep across the plains, grounding the inhabitants in a landscape that values resilience over pretense.

About This Pershing Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pershing, Oklahoma. Coordinates: 36.593405, -96.275285. 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 Pershing includes the ZIP code (74056, 74002), telephone area code (918), county seat of Osage County (Pawhuska), and school district assignment (Barnsdall 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.
