How to Use This Opal, Wyoming Map

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

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.

Opal emerges from the high, arid plains as a quiet intersection of sagebrush and wide, unyielding sky. It lies 47.4 miles west-northwest of Green River, WY (from Green River, WY: bearing 291°T), and is situated 11.0 miles east of Kemmerer. The Hams Fork cuts a thin, winding ribbon of resilience through the landscape, its presence offering a singular vein of moisture to an otherwise thirsty expanse of earth. Here, the horizon remains expansive and largely featureless, save for the distant, hazy silhouette of the Rocky Mountains that anchor the far western edge of the world. The light at dusk possesses a peculiar, thin clarity, casting long, sharp shadows that emphasize the subtle swells of the ground and the pale, dusty hues of the scrubland.

Opal carries the quiet weight of a rail-born history, having once served as a vital water stop for locomotives crossing this rugged interior. While the economy has shifted away from the frantic pace of the iron horse, the land remains defined by the persistence of those who work the soil and graze the vast, open range. Life here moves in accordance with the seasonal cycles, far removed from the bustle of denser maps and marked by a profound, solitary stillness. To the north, the Cushion Plant Community Area of Critical Environmental Concern preserves a fragile, specialized botanical landscape, while the nearby Craven Creek Meadows provide a rare, verdant break in the topography. Those who call Opal home exist in a deliberate rhythm, where the primary conversation remains between the inhabitant and the elements.
