How to Use This Pisgah, Maryland Map

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

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 Pisgah, Maryland

Pisgah is a locality in Charles County, Maryland, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 12.0 people per km². Pisgah is located at 38.5462°N, 77.1347°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 20640.

Pisgah emerges from the quiet intersection of rural roads where the land leans into a slow, deliberate grace. It lies 2.4 miles northwest of Charles, MD (from Charles, MD: bearing 314°T), and is situated 9.9 miles southeast of Woodbridge. Marbury Run cuts a subtle, vein-like path through the terrain, its waters moving with a quiet urgency that dictates the moisture of the low-lying soil and the lushness of the thickets that crowd its banks. To the north, the sprawling acreage of Doncaster State Forest offers a dense, pine-shadowed counterpoint to the open fields, while the distant, hazy suggestion of the Appalachian Mountains serves only to remind the traveler of the vast, folded geology that defines this interior plateau. The air here holds a particular weight at dusk, cooling rapidly as the light flattens against the timber and the damp earth.

Pisgah maintains a character forged in the silence of long-settled agriculture and the persistent, slow work of the land. In the nearby MATTAWOMAN NEA - Mattawoman Wildland, the ecology remains largely undisturbed, preserving a quietude that feels increasingly rare as the decades pass. Those who seek to traverse the terrain often follow the Maiden Fair Trail, a path that winds through the brush and reveals the unassuming, practical beauty of the regional woods. The economy remains tethered to the rhythms of the soil and the maintenance of the surrounding countryside, far removed from the frantic pace of the larger corridors. Life in Pisgah proceeds with a steady, unadorned consistency, marked by the changing shadows of the oaks and the seasonal turn of the fields.

About This Pisgah Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pisgah, Maryland. Coordinates: 38.546231, -77.1347. 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 Pisgah includes the ZIP code (20640), telephone area code (301, 240), county seat of Charles County (La Plata), and school district assignment.

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.
