How to Use This Whitefield, New Hampshire Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Whitefield, New Hampshire. 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 New Hampshire 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 Whitefield.

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 Whitefield, New Hampshire

Whitefield is a locality in Coos County, New Hampshire, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,460. The population density is 353.6 people per km². Whitefield is located at 44.3731°N, 71.6101°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 03598.

Whitefield occupies a broad, elevated plateau where the horizon is defined by the distant, serrated silhouettes of the White Mountains. It lies 58.8 miles north of Laconia, NH (from Laconia, NH: bearing 353°T), and is situated 9.2 miles east-northeast of Littleton. The Johns River winds with a quiet, persistent gravity through the lower meadows, its current carving a path through soil that feels heavy with the memory of ancient glacial retreats. Only a short distance away, the quiet basin of Burns Pond reflects the sky in a mirror of dark, unmoving water, while the nearby Whitefield Water Department Land provides a sanctuary of quiet timber and scrub. The air here holds a distinct, metallic sharpness at dawn, a clarity that seems to sharpen the edges of the granite outcrops and the rough, lichen-dusted stone walls that partition the fields.

Whitefield maintains a character forged by the steady, deliberate labor of those who once sought timber and milled the local pine. While the economy has shifted away from the intensive logging of earlier generations, the legacy of that industry remains in the sturdy, unadorned architecture that defines the main thoroughfares. Life here moves in accordance with the turning of the seasons, a pace set by the cycle of frost and thaw rather than the urgency of distant hubs. Travelers seeking solitude often gravitate toward the Black Brook Trail, where the forest floor beneath the canopy feels as quiet as a sanctuary, far removed from the clamor of modern commerce. Even as the modern world encroaches, the people of Whitefield retain a quiet, internal independence, preferring the reliable rhythm of the land to the unpredictability of the wider world.

About This Whitefield Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Whitefield, New Hampshire. Coordinates: 44.373116, -71.610084. 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 Whitefield includes the ZIP code (03598), telephone area code (603), county seat of Coos County (Lancaster), and school district assignment (White Mountain Regional 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.
