You can change between standard map view and satellite map view by clicking the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. You can use the zoom buttons on the lower right side of the map to zoom in or out to street-level detail.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — Geoscience Australia topographic mapping and the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 sheets — plus a labelled MGA grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below. You will find live weather, local and world news further down the page.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Mount Clarence Station, South Australia, Australia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views.

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 Geoscience Australia National Base Map — seamless topographic mapping covering the mainland, Tasmania and the external territories. NATMAP 250K shows the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 map sheets, mosaicked nationwide — the printed sheets generations of Australians navigated the outback with. The search box finds any Australian town, suburb or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Mount Clarence Station.
Reading the map like a paper sheet. Click Grid to overlay the Map Grid of Australia (MGA), 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 an MGA grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what emergency services and search and rescue 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 mobile coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load, which across much of inland Australia is most of the time.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Mount Clarence Station exists as a vast expanse of ochre earth, punctuated by hardy spinifex and the occasional skeletal silhouette of a mulga tree. It lies 592.9 km south of Alice Springs, NT (from Alice Springs, NT: bearing 175°T), and is situated 39.7 km west of Coober Pedy. The land here unfolds with a quiet, ancient patience, a landscape sculpted by millennia of wind and sun. Distant mesas, their edges softened by the haze of heat, stand like stoic sentinels against the impossibly wide, pale blue sky. The air, when it moves, carries the dry, mineral tang of sun-baked rock and a faint whisper of dust that seems to settle on everything, a fine, gentle powdering. Even the silence here has a texture, a deep, resonant hum that speaks of immense, unhurried distances.
The history of Mount Clarence Station is inextricably bound to the hardy souls who sought to tame its wild heart, primarily through sheep grazing, their wool a pale silver against the ruddy soil. This land, once traversed by Indigenous peoples for countless generations, now bears the imprint of pastoral leases and the enduring pursuit of sustenance in a challenging environment. The local economy, though modest, is a testament to resilience, built upon the backs of sheep and the tireless efforts of those who manage this sprawling property. Occasionally, the stark beauty of Mount Clarence Station draws the curious traveller, seeking the raw, untamed spirit of the Australian outback, a place where the colours of the earth are amplified by the relentless sun and the sheer scale of the horizon.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Australian town, suburb or landmark by name; offers Geoscience Australia topographic mapping and the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 sheets as base layers; overlays a labelled Map Grid of Australia (MGA) so the map can be read like a printed topographic sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as an MGA grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require mobile coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from Geoscape Administrative Boundaries (GDA2020) and enriched with GeoNames and Australian Bureau of Statistics data, matched by coordinate proximity — ensuring the correct Mount Clarence Station is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
