How to Use This Gabriels, New York Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Gabriels, 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 Gabriels.

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 Gabriels, New York

Gabriels is a locality in Franklin County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 12.0 people per km². Gabriels is located at 44.4320°N, 74.1810°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 12939.

Gabriels occupies a modest stretch of high-altitude terrain where the atmosphere maintains a sharp, thin clarity throughout the year. It lies 17.2 miles northwest of North Elba, NY (from North Elba, NY: bearing 319°T), and is situated 2.7 miles north-northwest of Harrietstown. The landscape surrounding Gabriels consists of dense woodlands and low-lying wetlands that drain into the nearby Rickerson Brook, a small waterway that cuts a winding path through the local soil. To the west, the horizon is dominated by the distant, jagged silhouette of the Adirondack Mountains, while the local topography remains defined by the vast, quiet expanse of the Town Of Brighton Land. Moisture from the distant Penfold Bay occasionally drifts inland, cooling the humid air and leaving a heavy, silver dew upon the tall grasses near Jones Pond.

History in Gabriels remains tied to the early efforts of settlers who navigated the challenging, rocky earth to establish a foothold in the wilderness. The local economy persists with a quiet resilience, favoring small-scale enterprises and a deliberate, slow-moving pace that resists the encroachment of modern industry. Residents often move through their days with an eye toward the changing seasons, acknowledging the persistent influence of the wind that pulls across the open fields. Those who seek the solitude of the outdoors sometimes venture toward the McKenzie Pond Trail, though most of the life in Gabriels centers on the simple, functional rhythm of maintaining homesteads and respecting the natural boundaries of the forest.

About This Gabriels Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Gabriels, New York. Coordinates: 44.431997, -74.180989. 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 Gabriels includes the ZIP code (12939), telephone area code (845), county seat of Franklin County (Malone), and school district assignment.

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.
