How to Use This Wallace, Michigan Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Wallace, Michigan. 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 Michigan 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 emerges from the flat, dense timberlands of the upper Midwest as a quiet intersection of earth and water. It lies 39.3 miles southwest of Escanaba, MI (from Escanaba, MI: bearing 223°T), and is situated 15.6 miles north of Marinette. The Little River cuts a deliberate, darkening path through the soil here, its current reflecting the heavy, low-hanging clouds that often drift across the horizon. Beyond the immediate banks, the landscape stretches into a succession of muted, shadowed fields that offer little resistance to the wind. Three miles to the north, the still surface of Hanson Lake serves as a silent mirror to the changing seasons, while the distant, hazy silhouette of Oak Hill provides the only significant break in the otherwise level, expansive sky.

Wallace maintains a measured pace, defined by the lingering remnants of agricultural industry and the seasonal cycles of the surrounding woodland. The regional economy remains tethered to the land, drawing sustenance from the timber and soil that have supported families for generations. Residents find their solitude in the wide, open spaces of the nearby Hayward Lake Club, where the brush grows thick and undisturbed. Life in Wallace is marked by the steady, unsentimental labor of those who work the earth, preferring the grounded reality of the interior plains to the frantic pulse of larger, more crowded places.

About This Wallace Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Wallace, Michigan. Coordinates: 44.531959, -83.665536. 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 Wallace includes the ZIP code (48737, 49893), telephone area code (586, 906), county seat of Menominee County (Menominee), 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.
