How to Use This Oldtown, Idaho Map

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

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.

Oldtown occupies a verdant stretch of the northern Idaho panhandle where the land yields to the steady, rhythmic passage of the Pend Oreille River. It lies 26.1 miles north-northwest of Rathdrum, ID (from Rathdrum, ID: bearing 346°T), and is situated 0.2 miles east-southeast of Newport. The air here holds a crisp, pine-scented clarity, cooling rapidly as the sun retreats behind the silhouette of Cooks Mountain. To the east, the landscape opens into the quietude of Langell Canyon, while the expansive waters of Lake Pend Oreille sit only two miles away, exerting a gravitational pull on the local horizon. Within the immediate boundaries of Oldtown, Anderson Memorial Park provides a modest, grass-covered sanctuary where the stillness of the afternoon is broken only by the occasional rustle of wind through the tall, inland conifers.

Economic life in Oldtown remains tethered to the rugged heritage of the region, where the timber industry once dictated the pace of development and the clearing of the surrounding woodlands. The rhythm of the days is defined by the steady flow of the Pend Oreille River, a constant, shadowed presence that has shaped the settlement’s character far more than any transient trend. There is a singular, unadorned honesty to the way the local economy operates, favoring a deliberate, slow-moving industry that respects the demands of the terrain. Residents move with a quiet sense of purpose, acknowledging the history of a place that grew from the necessity of labor and the harsh, beautiful requirements of the Mountain West.

About This Oldtown Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Oldtown, Idaho. Coordinates: 48.182488, -117.018005. 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 Oldtown includes the ZIP code (83822), telephone area code (208, 986), county seat of Bonner County (Sandpoint), and school district assignment (West Bonner County School District 83).

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.
