How to Use This Lake Telemark, New Jersey Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lake Telemark, 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 Lake Telemark.
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 Lake Telemark, New Jersey
Lake Telemark is a locality in Morris County, New Jersey, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,172. The population density is 212.8 people per km². Lake Telemark is located at 40.9568°N, 74.4979°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 07866.Lake Telemark holds a stillness in its basin that seems to catch the low, amber light of late afternoon, reflecting the surrounding timber in its dark, glassy surface. It lies 3.9 miles north-northeast of Rockaway, NJ (from Rockaway, NJ: bearing 13°T), and is situated 8.2 miles northeast of Randolph. The Hibernia Brook traces a winding path through the rugged terrain nearby, its cool, constant flow carving a quiet presence into the rocky earth that defines the local topography. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Kittatinny Mountains rise against the sky like a serrated edge, while the dense, shadowed canopy of the Norvin Green State Forest looms eleven miles away, casting a feeling of deep, wooded seclusion over the immediate landscape. The air here carries a crisp, earthen scent, particularly at dusk when the chill settles into the hollows and the shadows of the trees stretch thin and long across the uneven ground.
Lake Telemark emerged from its origins as a summer retreat, a history that lingers in the eclectic residential character and the modest, enduring scale of the neighborhood. The local economy and daily life move with the deliberate pace of a place that has long prioritized the quietude of its woods and water over the frantic pulse of industrial centers. Within the immediate boundaries, Lake Telemark Park provides a shared space for the community, acting as a green anchor that preserves the natural integrity of the surroundings while the nearby Rockaway Valley influences the broader regional flow of traffic and commerce. Life here retains a distinct, unhurried quality, shaped by the intersection of forest, stream, and the memories of those who first sought out this woodland enclave for its shade and solitude.

About This Lake Telemark Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lake Telemark, New Jersey. Coordinates: 40.956765, -74.497934. 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 Lake Telemark includes the ZIP code (07866), telephone area code (732, 848), county seat of Morris County (Morristown), and school district assignment (Morris Hills 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.
