Explore Baggs, Wyoming, 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 Baggs, Wyoming. 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 Wyoming 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 Baggs.
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.

Baggs occupies a sun-bleached stretch of high desert where the horizon pulls tight against the earth, governed by the rhythmic, low-slung currents of the Ledford Slough as it carves a persistent path through the sagebrush. It lies 57.6 miles northwest of Steamboat Springs, CO (from Steamboat Springs, CO: bearing 312°T), and is situated 36.4 miles north of Craig. The landscape shifts in color from the muted, dusty gray of morning to a bruised purple when the light catches the distant, jagged shadows of the Rocky Mountains, far to the west. A mile away, the land dips into the Van Fleet Draw, a geological furrow that captures the sharp, dry scent of juniper and baked alkali after a summer rain. Beyond the immediate scrub, the terrain climbs toward the timbered resilience of the Medicine Bow National Forest, providing a green, cool respite from the heat that radiates off the open plains.
Baggs retains the weathered character of a frontier outpost, its economy tethered to the enduring cycles of ranching and the extraction of resources that define this austere corner of the high plains. Travelers passing through may notice the quietude of the streets, where the pace is dictated by the turning seasons rather than the demands of a clock, and where the history of outlaws and cattlemen lingers like a faint, unresolved chord in the local memory. Those seeking the stillness of the backcountry often head toward the Main Fork Trail for a long trek, or find a different sort of solitude closer to the banks of the Paintbrush Reservoir. Life in Baggs demands a certain toughness of spirit, finding its grace in the unadorned clarity of the starlight and the way the wind hums through the fence lines at dusk.

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.
