Explore Kasilof, Alaska, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Kasilof, Alaska. 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 Alaska 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 Kasilof.
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.

Kasilof draws its character from the relentless, silver pulse of the Kasilof River as it carves a path toward the Pacific Ocean. It lies 76.5 miles southwest of Anchorage, AK (from Anchorage, AK: bearing 218°T), and is situated 5.6 miles south of Kalifornsky. The landscape is defined by the heavy, low-hanging light of the subarctic, where the dark silhouettes of spruce forest meet the expansive, muted tones of the sky. Only a mile away, the quiet stillness of Pollard Lake reflects the shifting clouds, providing a calm counterpoint to the swifter currents nearby. To the distant east, the jagged, snow-dusted spine of the Kenai Mountains marks the horizon, a constant, silent presence that reminds those living here of the immense, indifferent scale of the terrain. The air carries a sharp, metallic tang of salt and cold water, a sensory reminder that the vast, open coastline lies only three miles from the reach of the tide.
Kasilof maintains a rhythm dictated by the seasons and the cycle of the salmon, an economy built on the harvest of the river and the quiet persistence of those who work the land. Men and women gather at the Kasilof River Special Use Area to navigate the seasonal runs, their lives tethered to the health of the water and the shifting tides of the industry. The history of the place is etched into the weathered siding of cabins and the sturdy, unadorned machinery left to rest in the tall grass. Beyond the immediate banks, the geography opens toward the distant expanse of Clam Gulch, where the earth gives way to the sea. Life here avoids the frantic pace of larger hubs, favoring instead a stoic endurance where the call of a raven or the distant roar of a bush plane serves as the only clock, measuring the slow drift of the long, gray afternoons.

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.
