How to Use This Cedar Bluff, Alabama Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cedar Bluff, Alabama. 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 Alabama 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 Cedar Bluff.

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.

Cedar Bluff reveals itself through a landscape dominated by the expansive, quiet waters of Weiss Lake, which dictates the pace of life along its uneven, red-clay shoreline. It lies 16.8 miles south-southeast of Fort Payne, AL (from Fort Payne, AL: bearing 158°T), and is situated 6.2 miles northeast of Centre. The horizon is anchored by the distant, hazy silhouette of Bogan Mountain, while the ground slopes away from the water toward the fertile, low-lying stretches of Broomtown Valley. Sunlight here possesses a heavy, amber quality, catching the dust of back roads and illuminating the dense stands of bottomland hardwood that define the humid, inland climate. In the center of the local geography, Town Park offers a silent, green respite where the water meets the earth, grounding the view in a stillness that feels both ancient and immediate.

Cedar Bluff maintains an economy tethered to the rhythms of the water, where the legacy of regional agriculture persists alongside a modern inclination toward recreation and slow-moving commerce. A mile away, the Chattooga River feeds into the local basin, a constant, silent presence that has influenced the settlement patterns of the area for generations. The character of Cedar Bluff is forged in the quietude of its daily routines, where the history of the soil remains visible in the furrowed fields and the enduring architecture of its older buildings. Life here moves with the deliberate weight of the seasons, honoring a heritage rooted in the landscape while the modern world hums quietly at a distance, leaving the atmosphere undisturbed.

About This Cedar Bluff Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cedar Bluff, Alabama. Coordinates: 34.221422, -85.588565. 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 Cedar Bluff includes the ZIP code (35959), telephone area code (334, 205), county seat of Cherokee County (Centre), and school district assignment (Cherokee County School District).

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.
