How to Use This Thayne, Wyoming Map

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

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.

Thayne occupies a high-altitude basin where the silver thread of Flat Creek meanders through pastures, grounding the landscape in a quiet, agrarian permanence. It lies 40.5 miles south-southwest of Jackson, WY (from Jackson, WY: bearing 197°T), and is situated 4.2 miles southwest of Star Valley Ranch. The air here holds a sharp, thin clarity that catches the light of the setting sun, turning the sagebrush slopes into vast stretches of muted gold and gray. To the east, the distant, jagged peaks of the Rocky Mountains rise as a formidable backdrop, while the immediate horizon is shaped by the rugged, timbered rise of Caribou National Forest just a mile away. Smith Canyon provides a dramatic breach in the terrain, its shadows deepening as the afternoon wears on, reminding those who traverse these plains that the land remains indifferent to the passage of human time.

Agriculture remains the pulse of Thayne, with working ranches and fields defining the rhythm of the seasons and the sturdy, practical character of its residents. Long before modern commerce reached these plains, the region served as a corridor for those traveling the Emigrant Trail, leaving a legacy of endurance that still informs the local identity. The economy leans into the steady demands of rural life, far removed from the frantic pace of larger hubs, favoring a consistency that values a day’s honest labor over the transient trends of the outside world. Even with Palisades Reservoir providing a wider expanse of water fifteen miles to the north, Thayne maintains a focus on the immediate earth, where the cycle of planting and harvest continues under a sky that feels vast enough to encompass all of history.

About This Thayne Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Thayne, Wyoming. Coordinates: 42.920757, -111.002156. 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 Thayne includes the ZIP code (83127), telephone area code (307), county seat of Lincoln County (Kemmerer), and school district assignment (Lincoln 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.
