How to Use This Mount Olive, Alabama Map

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

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.

Mount Olive marks the transition where the flat plains begin to yield to the stubborn, upward reach of the interior landscape. It lies 9.8 miles southeast of Sylacauga, AL (from Sylacauga, AL: bearing 137°T), and is situated 13.6 miles northwest of Alexander City. The earth here is stained a deep, iron-rich red, grounding the pines and hardwoods that push toward the sky in a dense, tangled canopy. Only a mile away, the quiet waters of Hatchet Creek carve a path through the undergrowth, its movement barely audible against the hum of cicadas in the heat of a July afternoon. To the east, the Weogufka Mountains rise as a jagged silhouette against the fading light, casting long, bruised shadows that stretch across the fields until the entire horizon seems to settle into a cool, dusky violet.

Mount Olive remains a place defined by the slow, steady persistence of its residents and the quiet industry that anchors them to the soil. Beyond the residential streets, the vast expanse of the Hollins Wildlife Management Area preserves the integrity of the woods, serving as a reminder of the wilderness that once claimed the entire region. The local economy draws its strength from the legacy of the land, where the rhythms of the day are dictated by the sun and the shifting seasons rather than the frantic pace of distant urban centers. Whether watching the light catch the surface of Peoples Lake Number 2 or navigating the clay-dusted roads after a heavy rain, one senses that Mount Olive moves according to a private, internal clock, indifferent to the noise of the outside world.

About This Mount Olive Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Mount Olive, Alabama. Coordinates: 33.078454, -86.13304. 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 Mount Olive includes the ZIP code (36276, 35079, 35452), telephone area code (256, 205), county seat of Coosa County (Rockford), and school district assignment (Coosa 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.
