How to Use This Jamestown, Colorado Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Jamestown, Colorado. 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 to zoom in and out.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, 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).

Drag the map to pan to any area of Colorado or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Jamestown and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.

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. 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 Jamestown.

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.

About Jamestown, Colorado

Jamestown is a locality in Boulder County, Colorado, United States. It is a small community with a population of 324. The population density is 171.5 people per km². Jamestown is located at 40.1155°N, 105.3886°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. ZIP code: 80455.

Jamestown occupies a rugged verticality where the earth rises to meet the thin, sharp clarity of the high-altitude sky. It lies 9.3 miles northwest of Boulder, CO (from Boulder, CO: bearing 318°T), and is situated 15.6 miles west-southwest of Longmont. James Creek carves its path through the center of the terrain, a restless pulse of water that defines the narrow corridors of Porphyry Gulch. Dense thickets of Roosevelt National Forest climb the steep slopes, surrounding the locality with a deep, evergreen silence that is broken only by the sudden, bright movement of a hawk or the shifting of loose scree. In the quiet hours of dusk, the light here loses its weight, turning the crags into silhouettes that seem to hold the memory of the immense Front Range standing guard forty-three miles to the west. History clings to the bedrock of Jamestown, a legacy of hard-won extraction that remains etched into the fractured quartz and the weathered timber of the remaining structures. Once a place defined by the fever of the mines, the economy has shifted toward a quiet, deliberate independence, far removed from the sprawl of the plains. Residents move through their days with a rhythm dictated by the seasons, from the brief, intense heat of summer to the long, crystalline cold that descends from the heights of Isabelle Glacier. Those who seek the wilder edges of the landscape might find their way along the Ceran Vrain Trail, tracing the contours of a world where the land remains unyielding, indifferent, and profoundly beautiful.

About This Jamestown Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Jamestown, Colorado — switch between views using the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. Coordinates: 40.115541, -105.388605. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service, with current observations and a 7-day forecast also powered by Open-Meteo. Real-time local news and world news feeds keep the page current, while a Wikipedia summary or an editorially written description provides background on Jamestown and Boulder County.

Detailed location data for Jamestown includes the ZIP code (80455), telephone area code (303, 720), county seat of Boulder County (Boulder), and school district assignment (Boulder Valley School District RE-2). These are among the most commonly searched location details for any US city or town.

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 — ensuring the correct Jamestown is identified even where the name is shared across multiple counties or states. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
