How to Use This Salt Point, New York Map

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

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 Salt Point, New York

Salt Point is a locality in Dutchess County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 202. The population density is 94.1 people per km². Salt Point is located at 41.8068°N, 73.7932°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 12578.

Salt Point occupies a quiet intersection of green woodland and winding roads where the Little Wappinger Creek carves a narrow, rhythmic path through the earth. It lies 7.4 miles east-northeast of Hyde Park, NY (from Hyde Park, NY: bearing 78°T), and is situated 9.9 miles northeast of Poughkeepsie. The landscape here favors the modest elevation of the interior, with the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Catskill Mountains marking the western horizon like a jagged, ink-blue smudge against the sky. Within the immediate vicinity, the terrain shifts between dense thickets and clearings, while the calm waters of Nooteeming Lake provide a reflective anchor for the surrounding flora. Helen Aldrich Park offers a modest expanse of open space, serving as a quiet witness to the seasonal shifts of light that move across the fields, turning the late afternoon grass into a pale, burnished gold.

Salt Point carries the quiet weight of a place that has long traded in the slow, deliberate work of agriculture and land stewardship. The local economy remains tethered to the rhythms of the countryside, where the labor of the soil and the maintenance of property define the daily labor of its inhabitants. History here is not found in grand monuments, but in the enduring utility of the terrain, specifically in the way the land was once navigated and settled to survive the deep, freezing winters common to this inland latitude. To pass through Salt Point is to encounter a persistent, unpretentious stillness, where the air holds the scent of damp leaves and the distant, cooling influence of the woods, far removed from the frantic pace of the state’s more dense, urban corridors.

About This Salt Point Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Salt Point, New York. Coordinates: 41.80676, -73.793187. 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 Salt Point includes the ZIP code (12578), telephone area code (845), county seat of Dutchess County (Poughkeepsie), and school district assignment (Hyde Park Central School District).

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.
