How to Use This Plush, Oregon Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Plush, 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 Plush.
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 Plush, Oregon
Plush is a locality in Lake County, Oregon, United States. It is a small community with a population of 39. The population density is 9.3 people per km². Plush is located at 42.4115°N, 119.9038°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 97637.Plush occupies a stark, sun-bleached expanse where the high desert floor stretches toward the horizon in shades of sage and oxidized iron. It lies 94.7 miles east of Altamont, OR (from Altamont, OR: bearing 81°T), and is situated 27.3 miles northeast of Lakeview. Honey Creek cuts a vein of dark, riparian green through this arid basin, its waters providing a vital, cooling rhythm to a landscape otherwise defined by the relentless clarity of the sky. Two miles to the east, the stillness of Hart Lake mirrors the immense vault of the heavens, holding the light of the day long after the sun has dipped below the distant, jagged silhouette of the Cascade Range. The air here carries the scent of dry earth and ancient stone, a thin, crisp atmosphere that sharpens the edges of every basalt outcropping and wind-sculpted rise.
Plush persists as a quiet outpost of human endeavor, its history anchored in the rugged labor of ranching and the slow, deliberate turn of the seasons. The local economy remains tethered to the land, where the presence of the Honey Creek protects the delicate balance of the watershed, honoring the legacy of those who first recognized the value of this isolated valley. Beyond the immediate reach of the creek, the landscape rises toward the rugged terrain of Miners Draw, a reminder of the prospecting spirits that once traversed these plains. Life in Plush proceeds with a measured intensity, governed by the needs of livestock and the shifting colors of the brush, creating a community where the silence of the high desert is a tangible, living presence.

About This Plush Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Plush, Oregon. Coordinates: 42.41155, -119.90384. 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 Plush includes the ZIP code (97637), telephone area code (541), county seat of Lake County (Lakeview), and school district assignment (Plush School District 18).
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.
