How to Use This Pisgah, Alabama Map

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

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.

Pisgah asserts itself upon the high, level terrain of the plateau, where the landscape is defined by the steady, unpretentious progression of red-clay soil and the persistent presence of Little Bryant Creek. It lies 10.6 miles east of Scottsboro, AL (from Scottsboro, AL: bearing 87°T), and is situated 5.6 miles northwest of Henagar. The horizon is framed by the distant, jagged silhouette of Backbone Ridge, a reminder of the tectonic weight that anchors this inland stretch of the continent. To the west, the land yields toward the lower basin of Wininger Hollow, where the shadows lengthen early and the air retains a heavy, moisture-laden stillness. Sunlight here possesses a particular clarity, filtering through the needles of longleaf pines to cast sharp, geometric patterns across the forest floor, illuminating the quiet transition from woodland to the cultivated fields that define the perimeter of Pisgah.

Economic life in Pisgah remains tethered to the rhythms of the earth, echoing a history of agrarian resilience that has persisted long after the initial settlement of the region. Local industry finds its expression in the careful stewardship of the land, while the nearby expanse of Guntersville Lake offers a vast, shimmering contrast to the dense, wooded interior. Residents look toward the State-owned Submerged Lands as a vital anchor for the natural character of the vicinity, preserving a ruggedness that resists total domestication. The passage of time in Pisgah is marked not by grand gestures, but by the subtle, seasonal shifts in the humidity and the slow, deliberate work of those who cultivate the heavy soil, maintaining a life that is as grounded and enduring as the bedrock itself.

About This Pisgah Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pisgah, Alabama. Coordinates: 34.684366, -85.84601. 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 Pisgah includes the ZIP code (35773, 36036, 35765), telephone area code (334, 251, 256), county seat of Jackson County (Scottsboro), and school district assignment (Jackson 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.
