How to Use This Bairoil, Wyoming Map

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

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.

Bairoil anchors itself within the high, arid expanse of the Wyoming plains, where the horizon stretches thin and taut under a vast, unyielding sky. It lies 68.2 miles southeast of Riverton, WY (from Riverton, WY: bearing 142°T), and is situated 35.4 miles north-northwest of Rawlins. Reed Creek carves a quiet, intermittent path through the sagebrush, its meager current offering a subtle contrast to the parched, alkaline earth that defines the basin. To the west, the landscape dips toward the shallow depression of Laundry Draw, while the distant, jagged silhouette of the Rocky Mountains haunts the far edge of sight like a forgotten memory. Just two miles away, the surface of Lost Soldier Reservoir catches the low, copper light of evening, mirroring the clouds in a stillness that feels both heavy and profound. The air here holds a sharp, clean clarity, tasting of dry minerals and the persistent, restless wind that scours the scrubland, shaping the very way light clings to the hillsides at dusk.

Bairoil grew from the persistent pulse of the energy industry, its history inextricably tied to the extraction of oil and gas that fuels the local economy. The architecture of Bairoil reflects this industrial necessity, appearing as a pragmatic collection of structures designed to withstand the harsh, cyclical demands of the basin. Residents maintain a life defined by the rhythmic persistence of field work, operating under the watchful stewardship of the nearby Green Mountain Area of Critical Environmental Concern, which preserves the rugged, untamed character of the surrounding terrain. Life here moves with a steady, deliberate pace, far removed from the frantic noise of urban centers, grounded instead in the quiet endurance of those who work the earth. In the interplay between the infrastructure of the wells and the sweeping, silent plains, Bairoil asserts a distinct identity—a place where the modern pursuit of resources meets the ancient, immutable silence of the high desert.
