How to Use This Moro, Oregon Map

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

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.

Moro occupies a high, expansive plateau where the horizon stretches thin and taut against a pale, unyielding sky. It lies 23.0 miles east-southeast of The Dalles, OR (from The Dalles, OR: bearing 109°T), and is situated 23.7 miles south of Goldendale. The landscape around Moro consists of vast, open fields that catch the sun in long, golden strokes, broken only by the sharp, distant silhouette of the Cascade Range etched against the western edge of the world. Three miles to the east, the rugged contours of Gordon Hollow carve deep shadows into the earth, while the nearby Lower Deschutes Wildlife Area provides a sanctuary of scrub and sagebrush that thrives in the arid air. Five miles away, the Deschutes River cuts a persistent path through the basalt, its steady movement a quiet counterpoint to the stillness of the dry, elevated plains.

Moro serves as the seat of Sherman County, a place where the economy remains tethered to the slow, deliberate cycle of grain harvests and the husbandry of the soil. Since its founding, the identity of Moro has been shaped by the resilience required to coax life from this high-plains terrain, a history marked by the sturdy architecture of the courthouse and the enduring presence of those who work the wheat fields. Residents often look toward the horizon, where the light at dusk turns the dusty grain stalks into flickering amber, signaling the end of another day under the vast expanse. While Horseshoe Falls lies ten miles distant and Powell Reservoir remains a quiet presence five miles away, the character of the locality is defined less by these landmarks than by the persistent, wind-swept quiet that governs the pace of the streets and the daily rhythm of the work.
