How to Use This Cave, Missouri Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cave, Missouri. 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 Missouri 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 Cave.
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 Cave, Missouri
Cave is a locality in Lincoln County, Missouri, United States. It is a small community with a population of 1. The population density is 5.0 people per km². Cave is located at 39.0198°N, 91.0435°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Cave is an incorporated locality. ZIP codes: 63379, 63377.Cave emerges from the quiet intersection of limestone-heavy soil and the persistent, winding path of the West Fork Cuivre River. It lies 4.4 miles northwest of Troy, MO (from Troy, MO: bearing 310°T), and is situated 8.4 miles northwest of Moscow Mills. Sunlight here possesses a peculiar, heavy clarity, casting sharp shadows across the flat fields that stretch toward the distant silhouette of Pea Ridge. The landscape remains defined by the deliberate, slow-moving currents of the local watercourse and the quietude of the Crouch (R. H.) Access, where the earth yields to the river’s edge. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain rises into subtle, verdant swells that eventually give way to the deeper, more shadowed topography of Starkey Hollow.
Cave maintains a steady, agricultural heartbeat, anchored by the families who have long worked the surrounding acreage and the quiet commerce of the plains. Life here moves in accordance with the seasonal cycles of the fields, an economy built on the sturdy, unpretentious labor of the American interior. Residents often look toward the nearby expanse of Burkemper Lake when the summer heat settles, finding a reprieve in the stillness of the water. The cultural character of Cave reflects a plain-spoken durability, a sense of place forged by generations who recognize that the value of the land is measured not in grand gestures, but in the reliable yield of the harvest and the maintenance of the fence line.

About This Cave Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cave, Missouri. Coordinates: 39.019769, -91.043476. 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 Cave includes the ZIP code (63379, 63377), telephone area code (314), county seat of Lincoln County (Troy), and school district assignment (Troy R-III School District).
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.
