How to Use This Superior, Wyoming Map

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

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.

Superior holds its ground against a vast, high-desert sky where the light at dusk bleeds a bruised plum color across the sagebrush. It lies 17.1 miles northeast of Rock Springs, WY (from Rock Springs, WY: bearing 46°T), and is situated 17.5 miles east-northeast of North Rock Springs. The landscape around Superior is defined by the stark, arid austerity of the Wyoming plateau, a terrain where the wind dictates the movement of dust and the sparse, toughened grasses. To the west, the distant jagged edges of the Rocky Mountains catch the final, thin rays of the sun, while closer at hand, the earth is marked by the geological curiosity of the Natural Corrals Area of Critical Environmental Concern. The air here is dry and carries a faint, sharp scent of minerals, and the quiet is so absolute that the sudden skittering of a lizard over sun-warmed shale sounds like a deliberate intrusion.

Black Rock Creek carves a narrow, erratic path through the dry earth three miles away, offering a rare, slender ribbon of moisture in an otherwise thirsty basin. The history of Superior is inextricably linked to the coal seams that once drew labor from across the globe, creating a rugged, industrial legacy that still informs the local character. While the economy has shifted away from its former peak of extraction, the pace of life remains tethered to the slow, deliberate rhythms of the high country, far removed from the bustle of modern commerce. Residents look toward the horizon near Scotts Meadow as the seasons shift, acknowledging a persistent, unsentimental connection to a land that demands resilience from everything it sustains.

About This Superior Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Superior, Wyoming. Coordinates: 41.7595, -108.9643. 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 Superior includes the ZIP code (82945), telephone area code (307), county seat of Sweetwater County (Green River), and school district assignment (Sweetwater 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.
