How to Use This Powder Horn, Wyoming Map

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

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.

Powder Horn occupies a quiet expanse of high plains where the land folds into the gentle depression of Denio Draw. It lies 7.0 miles south of Sheridan, WY (from Sheridan, WY: bearing 187°T), and is situated 27.6 miles north-northwest of Buffalo. Little Goose Creek cuts a persistent, winding path through this terrain, its waters carving a subtle corridor of green that contrasts against the muted, sun-bleached grasses of the surrounding basin. In the distance, the Bighorn Mountains rise as a jagged, violet silhouette against the horizon, anchoring the sky and lending a sense of permanence to the vast, open horizon. The light here possesses a particular clarity, turning the long shadows of late afternoon into deep, indigo pools that pool in the low ground, while the air remains thin and sharp, carrying the faint, dry scent of sagebrush across the miles.

Powder Horn emerged from the rugged legacy of Wyoming’s ranching culture, a history still etched into the barbed wire fences and the persistent, slow-moving rhythm of local agricultural life. While the economy remains tethered to the land and the quiet industry of the plains, the vicinity offers access to the natural expanse of South Park, which sits five miles away, providing a sanctuary for wildlife and a reprieve for those seeking the stillness of the high country. Residents often look toward the distant Bear Gulch Trail for recreation, while the nearby Menardi and White Reservoir serves as a vital, reflective basin for the region’s sparse precipitation. Life in Powder Horn proceeds without fanfare, defined by the cyclical demands of the seasons and a steadfast connection to the topography that dictates the pace of every day.
