How to Use This Oscarville, Alaska Map

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

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.

About Oscarville, Alaska

Oscarville is a locality in Bethel, Alaska, United States. It is a small community with a population of 70. The population density is 10.4 people per km². Oscarville is located at 60.7228°N, 161.7700°W. It observes the Alaska Time (America/Anchorage) timezone. ZIP code: 99559.

Oscarville emerges from the vast, subarctic expanse as a collection of structures huddled against the immense silence of the interior. It lies 398.9 miles west of Anchorage, AK (from Anchorage, AK: bearing 270°T), and is situated 4.8 miles south of Bethel. The terrain surrounding Oscarville consists of low, sweeping tundra and stubborn thickets of taiga that stretch toward the horizon, far removed from the reach of any temperate influence. Five miles to the east, the waters of Arthur Dall Lake hold the pale, slanted light of the afternoon, reflecting a sky that seems to press down with a heavy, atmospheric gravity. The land here is part of the Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge, a sprawling wilderness where the earth remains firm and unyielding beneath a thin layer of seasonal moss. Even in the height of summer, the air carries a crisp, metallic edge, reminding any observer that this is a landscape defined by its profound isolation and the quiet endurance of the elements.

Oscarville carries the weight of a history forged by those who sought a foothold in the challenging interior, where the economy has long relied on the rhythms of subsistence and the arrival of seasonal supply flights. The pace of life is dictated by the turning of the seasons, as the inhabitants navigate a daily existence that favors practicality and resilience over the artifice of more urban centers. While the local economy remains modest, the presence of the Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge ensures that the surrounding environment remains largely untouched, preserving the habitat for the raven and the grizzly. In the quiet hours of the evening, when the bush planes have finished their circuits and the shadows lengthen across the tundra, Oscarville remains a singular point of human persistence in a vast, indifferent wilderness.

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.
