How to Use This Wallace, Idaho Map

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

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.

Wallace occupies a narrow corridor where the earth rises abruptly to meet the sky, forcing the architecture to cling to the steep, pine-shadowed slopes that hem in the valley floor. It lies 42.2 miles east-southeast of Coeur d'Alene, ID (from Coeur d'Alene, ID: bearing 109°T), and is situated 10.0 miles east-southeast of Kellogg. The South Fork Coeur d'Alene River cuts a cold, persistent path through the center of the landscape, its rhythmic motion providing a constant, low-frequency hum against the silence of the surrounding terrain. To the north, the sharp incline of Mount Pulaski looms over the rooftops, casting long, bruised shadows that deepen as the afternoon sun retreats behind the ridges. At the edge of the residential grid, Unknown Park offers a quiet expanse of green, a place where the air carries the scent of damp earth and cooling stone, undisturbed by the distant, jagged geometry of the regional peaks.

Wallace maintains an identity forged in the heavy, metallic dust of deep-earth extraction, a history that remains visible in the brick facades and the enduring character of its narrow streets. The economy, once dictated by the volatile extraction of silver and lead from the rock, has shifted into a deliberate preservation of its own weathered legacy, where the remnants of mining infrastructure stand as silent sentinels of a bygone industry. Residents move through the day with a measured, intentional pace, often looking toward the high, forested reaches of Daly Gulch or planning excursions that might eventually lead them toward the rugged terrain of the Bad Tom Trail. There is a distinct, hard-won resilience here, a quality born from decades of labor in the dark, subterranean veins of the ground, ensuring that Wallace remains a place defined by its grit and its quiet refusal to be anything other than what the land has allowed it to become.
