How to Use This Whallonsburg, New York Map

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

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 Whallonsburg, New York

Whallonsburg is a locality in Essex County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 12.0 people per km². Whallonsburg is located at 44.2642°N, 73.4029°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 12936.

Whallonsburg occupies a quiet stretch of land where the Boquet River carves a deliberate, winding path through the heavy, dark soil of the valley floor. It lies 27.3 miles east of North Elba, NY (from North Elba, NY: bearing 87°T), and is situated 10.0 miles northwest of Vergennes. The water moves with a persistent, muscular clarity, fed by the runoff that gathers long before it reaches the Boquet River Fishing Access, which serves as a silent guardian of the riverbank. On clear days, the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Adirondack Mountains rise to the west, defining the horizon with a jagged, immutable presence that anchors the sky. The atmosphere here holds a specific weight, a cool dampness that clings to the late-summer grasses and softens the edges of the hardwoods as they transition toward the denser growth found near the Ferrisburg Municipal Forest.

Whallonsburg retains the architectural memory of its industrial origins, when the flow of the river once powered the mills that organized the rhythm of local labor. Today, the economy has shifted away from that mechanical urgency, favoring a slower, more deliberate stewardship of the land and the preservation of the Grange hall that remains a focal point for the collective life of the residents. The proximity to Rogers Pond, situated just three miles from the center, influences the local climate and provides a vast, reflective stillness that dictates the pace of the seasons. Life in Whallonsburg persists in the quiet intervals between the cycles of the harvest, characterized by a steady, undemonstrative resilience that honors the work of those who first cleared the timber and laid the foundations of the village.

About This Whallonsburg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Whallonsburg, New York. Coordinates: 44.264218, -73.402906. 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 Whallonsburg includes the ZIP code (12936), telephone area code (845), county seat of Essex County (Elizabethtown), 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.
