How to Use This Fredon, New Jersey Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Fredon, New Jersey. 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 Jersey 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 Fredon.

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.

Fredon reveals itself through a landscape of quiet, agrarian patience, defined by the slow, deliberate movement of the Paulins Kill as it winds through the low-lying terrain. It lies 8.9 miles west of Sparta, NJ (from Sparta, NJ: bearing 273°T), and is situated 7.9 miles west of Lake Mohawk. The horizon is anchored to the northwest by the distant, hazy silhouette of the Kittatinny Mountains, providing a jagged contrast to the softer, verdant contours of the immediate fields. Within the boundaries of the township, the land holds a persistent, cool dampness, particularly as the light shifts toward dusk and shadows stretch from the tree lines toward the open meadows. Residents often find solace in the proximity of Loadstar Park, where the earth retains an unvarnished, wild quality, or they seek the stillness of Duck Pond, where the water mirrors the shifting gray and gold of the New Jersey sky.

Economic life in Fredon continues to honor a legacy rooted in the cultivation of the soil, maintaining a tether to its past as a place of working farms and modest, industrious enterprise. While the surrounding region has seen the encroachment of modern transit and suburban expansion, Fredon preserves a sense of isolation, buffered by the dense, ancient growth of Stokes State Forest nearby. History here is not marked by grand monuments but by the enduring presence of old stone walls and the steady, rhythmic labor that persists despite the changing seasons. The community moves with a measured pace, favoring the quietude of the rural interior over the frantic energy found elsewhere, leaving a deep, resonant impression on those who traverse its quiet roads.
