Explore Centennial, 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 Centennial, 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 Centennial.
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.

Centennial emerges from the high, sage-brushed plateau where the air holds a thin, crystalline quality that sharpens the edges of every distant horizon. It lies 28.6 miles west of Laramie, WY (from Laramie, WY: bearing 268°T), and is situated 74.0 miles northwest of Fort Collins. Mullen Creek carves a persistent, quiet path through the landscape, its clear waters providing a constant, low-frequency pulse against the stillness of the terrain. To the west, the land rises toward the rugged, distant peaks of the Rocky Mountains, while the immediate surroundings are defined by the dense, evergreen stands of the Medicine Bow National Forest. Just a mile away, the deepening shadows of Hall Gulch catch the late afternoon light, turning the scrub and stone into a palette of muted ochre and deep violet. Travelers seeking to traverse the wilder reaches of the backcountry often look toward the Circle Trail, a rugged artery that snakes through the timber only a few miles from the edge of the settlement.
Centennial maintains a quiet resilience that speaks to its origins as a hub for prospectors and those drawn to the promise of mineral wealth. The local economy has shifted from the frantic energy of the mining era to a steady, seasonal rhythm driven by those who appreciate the solitude of the high country and the proximity to the expansive Medicine Bow National Forest. Life here moves in concert with the seasons, from the heavy silence of deep winter snows to the brief, brilliant bloom of mountain wildflowers. While Bear Lake remains a quiet destination for those who wander six miles from the center, the character of Centennial is forged primarily by the wind, the towering timber, and a collective preference for a life lived under an immense, unclouded sky.

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.
