Explore Hankins, 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 Hankins, 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 Hankins.
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.

Hankins emerges from the dense, tangled greenery of the Sullivan County woods where the landscape gathers itself into steep, shadowed grades. It lies 37.8 miles west of Wawarsing, NY (from Wawarsing, NY: bearing 276°T), and is situated 18.7 miles north-northeast of Honesdale. Hankins Creek carves a narrow, persistent path through the terrain, its water moving with a cold, metallic clarity over moss-slicked stones and fallen hemlock limbs. Three miles to the east, the stillness of Dascher Pond offers a mirror to the sky, its surface rarely disturbed save for the occasional ripple of a rising trout. On the far horizon, the blue-gray silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains hold the light of the setting sun long after the valley floor has surrendered to the cool, creeping damp of dusk.
Railroad tracks once dictated the pulse of Hankins, marking a time when the movement of freight and passengers anchored the local economy to the wider world. Though the rails no longer hum with the same heavy industry, the remnants of that era linger in the weathered wood of old structures and the quiet, deliberate pace of the remaining households. Residents and visitors alike often trace the short distance toward the Delaware River Waterway Access, where the land opens up to accommodate the pull of the water and the seasonal migration of those seeking the solace of the outdoors. Life here is defined by the rhythm of the changing leaves and the sharp, clean bite of winter air, grounding the people of Hankins in a cycle that feels both ancient and entirely their own.

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.
