Explore Earlton, New York, 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 Earlton, New York. 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 York 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 Earlton.
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.

Earlton unfolds across a landscape of quiet, agrarian patience where the Grapeville Creek carves a persistent, winding path through the heavy soil. It lies 9.7 miles north of Catskill, NY (from Catskill, NY: bearing 349°T), and is situated 9.9 miles southwest of Coeymans. Mill Pond sits as a reflective anchor at the center of the locality, its surface often mirroring the shifting amber light of late afternoon as the sun dips toward the horizon. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Catskill Mountains provide a jagged, permanent backdrop that defines the scope of the local sky. The surrounding terrain, characterized by the subtle, uneven elevation changes that lead toward the Sandy Plain, holds a stillness that seems to absorb the sound of the wind, leaving only the rustle of dry grasses and the occasional cadence of a passing vehicle. A short distance away, the Village Of Catskill Water Land offers a sanctuary of protected, unmanicured growth, grounding the area in a sense of geological permanence that predates the fences and property lines of the modern inhabitant.
Earlton preserves the legacy of an era when local industry was defined by the immediate utility of the land, leaving behind a rhythm of life that favors steady, deliberate labor over the frantic pace of larger hubs. The economy remains tethered to the cycles of the seasons, with small-scale agricultural efforts and local trade maintaining the character of the neighborhood without the intrusion of heavy commercial sprawl. Residents recognize the value of the quietude found here, acknowledging that the proximity to natural landmarks like Meadow Falls creates a distinct, secluded atmosphere that persists through the changing seasons. Evenings in Earlton bring a cooling of the air that feels sharp and clean, a reminder that the geography is defined by its distance from the coast and its intimacy with the inland woods. The traditions of the place are quiet and informal, reflected in the way the morning light catches the weathered siding of older structures, suggesting a history that is worn comfortably rather than put on display.

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.
