Explore Mount Tabor, New Jersey, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Mount Tabor, 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 Mount Tabor.
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.

Mount Tabor rises from the undulating terrain of northern New Jersey as a collection of Victorian cottages clustered tightly against a landscape of steep slopes and dense canopy. It lies 1.4 miles south of Denville, NJ (from Denville, NJ: bearing 177°T), and is situated 9.9 miles west-northwest of Livingston. The topography here is defined by a rugged intimacy, where the glassy surface of Powder Mill Pond mirrors the shifting light of long afternoons and the cooling shadows of the nearby Parsippany-Troy Hills Township Wooded Lot. Beyond the immediate tree line, the land descends toward the Rockaway Valley, a basin that holds the cool, damp air of the evening long after the sun has retreated behind the distant, hazy silhouette of the Kittatinny Mountains. Den Brook cuts a narrow, winding path through the local geography, its progress marked by the steady drone of insects and the persistent dampness of the earth.
Mount Tabor maintains a singular character rooted in its nineteenth-century origins as a Methodist camp meeting ground, a history still visible in the peculiar, narrow streets and the ornate, gingerbread-trimmed porches that define the residential architecture. While the regional economy has long since shifted away from the agrarian and seasonal rhythms of its founding, the community retains a quiet, insular focus that resists the encroaching pace of the surrounding suburban sprawl. Residents move through these wood-framed corridors with a sense of deliberate pace, their daily lives shaped by the proximity of the forest and the preservation of a layout designed for pedestrian congregation rather than modern transit. In the quiet of the morning, the air carries a faint, sharp scent of pine needles and wet stone, a reminder that the land here remains stubbornly persistent against the leveling influence of progress.

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.
