Explore Port Murray, 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 Port Murray, 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 Port Murray.
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.

Port Murray stretches across a landscape defined by the deliberate, quiet shifts of the inland earth, where the terrain rises into soft, grassy swells before dipping into the shadowed creases of the Pohatcong Valley. It lies 6.6 miles southwest of Hackettstown, NJ (from Hackettstown, NJ: bearing 224°T), and is situated 7.1 miles west of Washington Morris County. The air here holds a distinct, crisp weight, carrying the scent of damp soil and the seasonal transition of leaves that drift down from the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Kittatinny Mountains visible on the western horizon. Close to the ground, the Musconetcong River carves a narrow, persistent path through the limestone bedrock, its movement providing a low, constant murmur that serves as the acoustic backdrop for the local flora. Near the Municipal Tennis Courts, the light at dusk settles in a pale, amber wash over the grass, transforming the ordinary geometry of the courts into a quiet, meditative space before the evening deepens into a cool, star-strewn gray.
Port Murray bears the marks of an era defined by the iron and canal industries that once funneled the vitality of the region through its narrow corridors. While the physical remnants of those heavy, industrial days have largely faded, the local economy now reflects a slower, more deliberate pace, favoring small-scale commerce and the stewardship of the surrounding acreage over the frantic expansion found elsewhere. Residents often travel toward the greenery of Jenny Jump State Forest to find respite, or gaze toward the stillness of Willever Lake, where the water mirrors the shifting clouds with a clarity that feels almost ancestral. Even the occasional distant roar of water from Foul Rift Falls seems to underscore the endurance of this place, a quiet anchor in a landscape that values the steady, unadorned rhythm of its own existence.

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.
