How to Use This Whippoorwill, Oklahoma Map

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

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.

Whippoorwill claims its place upon the red dirt plains, where the Caney River carves a slow, deliberate path through the landscape. It lies 14.1 miles northwest of Bartlesville, OK (from Bartlesville, OK: bearing 324°T), and is situated 13.4 miles northwest of Dewey. The horizon stretches wide and unencumbered, defined by the low, sun-drenched rise of Sundown Hill to the distance and the quiet, deep shadows that collect in the folds of Hay Hollow. In the late afternoon, the light turns a bruised, honeyed gold, catching the tall grasses and the scattered oaks of the Cross Timbers that hold the soil in place. Here, Hulah Lake offers a vast, open expanse of water that mirrors the expansive Oklahoma sky, providing a stillness that settles over the land long before the first stars appear.

Whippoorwill carries the quiet weight of an older territory, where the memory of those who walked the earth long before the steel of oil derricks broke the skyline still lingers in the wind. The economy remains tethered to the pulse of the land and the rhythmic demands of agriculture, supported by the steady presence of Lake Hudson nearby. Life in Whippoorwill proceeds with an internal momentum, measured not by the frenetic pace of urban centers, but by the turning of the seasons and the cycle of the harvest. It is a place of enduring character, where the architecture of the past—simple, functional, and honest—remains visible in the weathered wood and sturdy brick that mark the center of daily affairs.

About This Whippoorwill Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Whippoorwill, Oklahoma. Coordinates: 36.91229, -96.129989. 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 Whippoorwill includes the ZIP code (74056), telephone area code (918), county seat of Osage County (Pawhuska), and school district assignment (Bowring Public School).

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.
