How to Use This Rangeley, Maine Map

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

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 Rangeley, Maine

Rangeley is a locality in Franklin County, Maine, United States. It is a small community with a population of 590. The population density is 87.7 people per km². Rangeley is located at 44.9664°N, 70.6428°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 04970.

Rangeley defines itself through the persistent, cold clarity of the spruce-fir north, where the water of Haley Pond remains glass-still beneath the shifting shadows of the Longfellow Mountains. It lies 57.3 miles west-northwest of Waterville, ME (from Waterville, ME: bearing 300°T), and is situated 28.9 miles north of Rumford. Hatchery Brook carves a narrow, rhythmic path through the dense, dark timber, its current a constant, low-frequency hum against the silence of the surrounding woods. The air here holds a crisp, medicinal quality, sharpened by the elevation and the vast, untamed timberland that stretches toward the horizon. When the light fades, the landscape loses its sharp edges, dissolving into a deep, indigo twilight that seems to pull the very heat from the granite-strewn earth.

Rangeley serves as a quiet witness to the enduring labor of the interior, where the economy has long pivoted between the seasonal influx of those seeking the solace of the wilderness and the rugged persistence of those who remain through the long, white winters. The legacy of the land is evident in the quiet, utilitarian architecture that sits comfortably near the protected expanse of Rangeley Lake. Visitors often seek out the Milrose Trail or the distant, rushing cascade of Smalls Falls to measure the scale of the region, yet the true character of the place resides in the deliberate, measured pace of those who navigate the Big Sag Basin. Life here is not measured by the speed of progress, but by the subtle, seasonal shifts in the canopy and the way the inhabitants organize their lives around the cycles of the forest and the ice.

About This Rangeley Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Rangeley, Maine. Coordinates: 44.966444, -70.642846. 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 Rangeley includes the ZIP code (04970), telephone area code (207), county seat of Franklin County (Farmington), and school district assignment (Regional School Unit 78).

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.
