How to Use This Slater, Wyoming Map

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

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.

Slater occupies a vast, sun-bleached expanse where the horizon stretches thin and taut against a relentless, high-altitude sky. It lies 50.6 miles north of Cheyenne, WY (from Cheyenne, WY: bearing 0°T), and is situated 14.3 miles south-southeast of Wheatland. Chugwater Creek carves a deliberate, winding path through the dry earth nearby, its presence marked by a thin ribbon of hardy vegetation that refuses to surrender to the arid heat. To the west, the subtle, undulating silhouettes of the Richeau Hills emerge as a faint, bruised lavender smudge against the clouds, grounding the otherwise expansive view. The landscape here is characterized by the stark, open reach of the Slater Flats, where the wind carries the scent of sagebrush and parched soil across a geography defined by patience and silence.

Slater remains a quiet outpost in the agricultural tradition of the high plains, where the economy is tethered to the slow, seasonal pulse of ranching and the maintenance of the land. Life here is measured by the requirements of livestock and the erratic arrival of rain, far removed from the frantic pace of denser settlements. Residents often look toward the Town of Chugwater Park for a rare communal gathering, or find a different sort of solitude near the banks of Clearwater Reservoir, where the water holds the stillness of the afternoon. The history of the region is etched into the fences and the weathered timber of old outbuildings, remnants of a time when the railroad dictated the rhythm of commerce and the arrival of travelers. In the deepening light of dusk, the shadows lengthen across the dust, revealing a place that asks for little and offers a singular, unvarnished clarity to those who stay.
