How to Use This Peyton, Colorado Map

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

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 Peyton, Colorado

Peyton is a locality in El Paso County, Colorado, United States. It is a small community with a population of 139. The population density is 20.2 people per km². Peyton is located at 39.0289°N, 104.4830°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. ZIP code: 80831.

Peyton rests in a broad expanse where the prairie’s low hum gives way to the dramatic rise of the Front Range mountains. It lies 11.7 miles east of Black Forest, CO (from Black Forest, CO: bearing 85°T), and is situated 16.5 miles northeast of Cimarron Hills. The land here is a study in subtle gradients, vast skies arching over a terrain that hints at ancient riverbeds and wind-scoured outcrops, all under a light that feels thinner, crisper, at this altitude. September ushers in a fleeting blush of aspen gold on the distant slopes, a vibrant counterpoint to the enduring snowcaps that can sometimes linger even into the heart of summer, a constant reminder of the high country’s dominion. The air, especially in the early morning, carries the clean, dry scent of the interior continental climate, a bracing breath that seems to scrub the senses clean. The bones of Old West mining towns still whisper through the surrounding landscapes, a legacy of boom and bust that shaped the early settlement of this region. While the veins of ore have long since run dry, the spirit of industriousness persists, now channeled into a more diversified local economy, with agriculture and a growing service sector forming the bedrock of modern Peyton. Travelers passing through often remark on the surprising clarity of the rivers that thread through the foothills, their waters trout-bright and teeming, a vital artery in this otherwise arid interior. This is a place where the grand sweep of the high plains meets the formidable presence of the Rockies, a distinctive character forged by both the immensity of nature and the enduring resilience of its people.

About This Peyton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Peyton, Colorado — switch between views using the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. Coordinates: 39.028881, -104.483024. 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 Peyton and El Paso County.

Detailed location data for Peyton includes the ZIP code (80831), telephone area code (970), county seat of El Paso County (Colorado Springs), and school district assignment (Peyton School District 23-JT). 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 Peyton is identified even where the name is shared across multiple counties or states. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
