How to Use This Maybell, Colorado Map

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

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 Maybell, Colorado

Maybell is a locality in Moffat County, Colorado, United States. It is a small community with a population of 35. The population density is 28.0 people per km². Maybell is located at 40.5177°N, 108.0870°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. ZIP code: 81625.

Maybell rests in a wide cradle of the Yampa River Valley, where the land unfurls in broad, sun-bleached expanses under a sky that seems impossibly vast. It lies 66.0 miles west of Steamboat Springs, CO (from Steamboat Springs, CO: bearing 272°T), and is situated 28.4 miles west of Craig. The terrain is a study in subtle contrasts: the river itself, a ribbon of cool, life-giving blue, carves through ochre-colored earth, its banks softened by cottonwood trees that shimmer like spun gold when the autumn light catches them. Beyond the immediate valley floor, the land rises in gentle, sagebrush-covered slopes, eventually yielding to the distant, stoic presence of the mountains, their peaks often dusted with snow even in the height of summer, a constant reminder of the high-plains altitude and the crisp, dry air that characterizes this corner of Colorado. The light here possesses a peculiar clarity, especially in the late afternoon, rendering the world in sharp, clean lines and casting long, definitive shadows that stretch across the open country. The history of Maybell is as unpretentious as its landscape, a quiet evolution from a stop along the railroad to a small hub for ranching and agriculture. Its economy, still largely tethered to the land, thrives on cattle and the cultivation of hardy crops that can withstand the continental climate. The Yampa River, the lifeblood of the region, not only sustains the ranches but also offers a haven for anglers drawn by its reputation for clear, cold water teeming with trout. While no grand monuments mark its past, the Old West spirit lingers in the unhurried pace of life and the deep sense of self-reliance evident in its inhabitants. Maybell doesn't shout its virtues; it whispers them in the rustle of wind through dry grass and the enduring strength of its connection to the earth.

About This Maybell Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Maybell, Colorado — switch between views using the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. Coordinates: 40.517746, -108.087028. 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 Maybell and Moffat County.

Detailed location data for Maybell includes the ZIP code (81640), telephone area code (719), county seat of Moffat County (Craig), and school district assignment (Moffat County School District RE-1). 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 Maybell is identified even where the name is shared across multiple counties or states. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
