How to Use This McKinnon, Wyoming Map

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

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 McKinnon, Wyoming

McKinnon is a locality in Sweetwater County, Wyoming, United States. It is a small community with a population of 20. The population density is 1.3 people per km². McKinnon is located at 41.0277°N, 109.9360°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. ZIP code: 82938.

McKinnon occupies a stark, high-altitude expanse where the horizon stretches thin under a vast, unyielding sky. It lies 42.3 miles southwest of Green River, WY (from Green River, WY: bearing 215°T), and is situated 54.3 miles southwest of Rock Springs. The landscape around McKinnon is defined by the arid, sage-brushed plains that roll toward the distant, faint silhouette of the Rocky Mountains, which loom 172 miles away as a jagged reminder of the earth’s heavy architecture. Two miles to the west, the quiet descent of Coon Hollow cradles the intermittent flow of Henrys Fork, a waterway that cuts a subtle path through the dry, alkaline soil. Nearby, the Special Status (Candidate) Plant Species Area of Critical Environmental Concern serves as a testament to the fragile botanical life thriving in the basin, while the waters of Antler Reservoir wait four miles out, reflecting the bruised violet light of late afternoon.

Life in McKinnon persists through the quiet rigor of ranching and the seasonal cycles of a landscape that demands much from those who occupy it. The economy here is tethered to the land, shaped by the practical necessities of livestock and the slow, deliberate pace of rural industry that has defined the region for generations. History here is not written in monuments but in the worn fence lines and the resilience of the local homesteads that have weathered the biting winters and the fierce, drying winds. The air remains crisp and thin, carrying the scent of parched earth and distant sage, grounding the daily work of the people in a reality that feels both ancient and immediate.

About This McKinnon Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of McKinnon, Wyoming. Coordinates: 41.027733, -109.935985. 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 McKinnon includes the ZIP code (82938), telephone area code (307), county seat of Sweetwater County (Green River), and school district assignment (Sweetwater County School District 2).

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.
