How to Use This Lusk, Wyoming Map

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

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.

Lusk emerges from the high plains as a collection of low-slung buildings anchored against an expansive, unrelenting sky. It lies 94.6 miles east of Casper, WY (from Casper, WY: bearing 94°T), and is situated 47.2 miles east of Douglas. The Niobrara River traces a quiet path nearby, its presence felt in the thin line of green that interrupts the otherwise muted palette of tawny grasses and sage. To the west, the Wanker Hills rise in a jagged, dark silhouette against the horizon, providing a silent boundary to the vast, open space. A traveler might find solace in the Town of Lusk Park, where the wind carries the dry, clean scent of earth, and the light at dusk turns the surrounding basin into a pool of deep, cooling violet. Two miles away, the waters of Hoblit Reservoir hold the stillness of the afternoon, reflecting the clouds that drift endlessly over the Page Flat Draw.

Lusk draws its character from a history defined by the rugged demands of the frontier and the steady endurance of those who carved a living from the soil. The local economy persists through a quiet rhythm of agriculture and ranching, where the pulse of the day is dictated by the needs of livestock and the shifting weather. Life in Lusk moves with a deliberate, unadorned pace, stripped of pretense and focused on the practicalities of a harsh, beautiful climate. While the modern world often rushes past, the people here maintain a quiet connection to the land, their days marked by the slow turn of the season and the constant, searching breeze that sweeps across the plains.

About This Lusk Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lusk, Wyoming. Coordinates: 42.762467, -104.452175. 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 Lusk includes the ZIP code (82225), telephone area code (307), county seat of Niobrara County (Lusk), and school district assignment (Niobrara County School District 1).

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.
