How to Use This Sawkill, New York Map

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

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 Sawkill, New York

Sawkill is a locality in Ulster County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 680. The population density is 55.0 people per km². Sawkill is located at 41.9856°N, 74.0307°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 12401, 12477.

Sawkill occupies a quiet expanse of land where the earth rises in subtle, wooded swells toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Catskill Mountains. It lies 4.4 miles north-northwest of Kingston, NY (from Kingston, NY: bearing 337°T), and is situated 7.5 miles south-southwest of Saugerties. The Saw Kill cuts a persistent, winding path through the local topography, its cool waters channeling the runoff of the high country toward the broader basin of The Flat. Within the deep, quiet acreage of the Bluestone Wild Forest, the soil is dark and densely packed with glacial debris, supporting a thick canopy of hardwood that turns to a pale, brittle gold when the autumn air grows thin. Only a few miles away, the sudden, rhythmic tumble of Glenerie Falls provides a constant, low-frequency hum, while the stillness of Onteora Lake offers a reflective, obsidian surface to the sky.

Sawkill maintains a rhythm defined by the enduring patience of its inland geography, far removed from the frantic pace of denser, downstate corridors. Historically, the land served as a rugged frontier where the extraction of bluestone fueled local enterprise, leaving behind a legacy of stone foundations that still anchor the perimeter of older homesteads. Today, the economy leans into a blend of small-scale agriculture and the preservation of its natural wildness, as the presence of the Bluestone Wild Forest discourages heavy encroachment. Life here persists in the quiet intervals between seasons, marked by the steady, unpretentious labor of those who manage the orchards and the timber, finding a modest prosperity in the shade of the valley.

About This Sawkill Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sawkill, New York. Coordinates: 41.985648, -74.030695. 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 Sawkill includes the ZIP code (12401, 12477), telephone area code (845), county seat of Ulster County (Kingston), 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.
