How to Use This Onward, Indiana Map

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

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.

Onward occupies a quiet expanse of the Indiana plateau where the horizon stretches wide across flat fields and patches of stubborn timber. It lies 5.1 miles west-southwest of Wells, IN (from Wells, IN: bearing 239°T), and is situated 9.4 miles east-southeast of Logansport. The terrain remains largely level, defined by the slow, deliberate movement of Little Deer Creek just a mile away, which carves a modest path through the silt and clay of the valley. Sunlight here possesses a particular clarity, hitting the tall stalks of late-summer corn with a sharp, golden focus that turns the dust of the backroads into a fine, shimmering haze. To the east, the distant silhouette of The Hogback provides a subtle break in the sky, a reminder of the geological theater that shaped this inland reach long before the plow arrived.

Onward maintains a character forged by the steady cycles of agriculture and the rhythms of a landscape that demands patient stewardship. While the nearby Frances Slocum State Forest preserves a fragment of the dense, ancient canopy that once blanketed the region, the local economy remains tied to the productive earth that surrounds the grid of homes. Residents often find their way to Bunker Hill Town Park for a breath of quiet space, or venture toward Stuber Lake when the humidity of a Hoosier summer demands the cooling presence of water. The life of Onward persists with a sturdy, unadorned grace, where the work of the day is measured by the changing light on the silos and the long, amber shadows that lengthen across the plains as evening takes hold.
