Explore Wolfhurst, Ohio, 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 Wolfhurst, Ohio. 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 Ohio 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 Wolfhurst.
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.

Wolfhurst occupies a rugged intersection of the Appalachian foothills where the land descends into the quiet, persistent depth of Mutton Hollow. It lies 22.2 miles south-southwest of Steubenville, OH (from Steubenville, OH: bearing 201°T), and is situated 3.3 miles west of Wheeling. Wheeling Creek carves a path through the earth less than a mile away, its dark, silt-heavy waters mirroring the shifting sky as it winds past the foundations of the neighborhood. To the west, the silhouettes of High Ridge loom against the horizon, their slopes cloaked in a dense, seasonal foliage that turns from a sharp, metallic green to a muted, rusted bronze as the year wanes. The air here carries the faint, damp scent of mineral-rich soil and decaying leaves, a stillness that settles over the Lansing Community Center Playlot where the iron swings groan under the weight of a cooling breeze. Even when the light thins at dusk, the landscape retains a heavy, grounded character, defined less by its height than by the way the shadows pool in the low-lying basins.
Wolfhurst emerged from the grit of an industrial era defined by the extraction of subterranean wealth, leaving the topography marked by the legacy of coal and the slow, mechanical labor that once fueled the local economy. While the heavy machinery of the past has largely fallen silent, the rhythm of life remains tethered to these shifts in industry and the resilience of those who stayed to reclaim the hollows. Residents often look toward the distant, tranquil surface of Dorothy Mine Pond for a brief respite from the lingering echoes of the mines, finding a strange solace in the water’s stagnant, obsidian depths. Modern life here unfolds in the modest intervals between the old, weathered storefronts and the quiet residential lanes, where the pulse of the day is marked by the steady, unhurried transit of heavy trucks and the distant, rhythmic hum of the regional rail lines. It is a place that keeps its own counsel, holding onto a history written in shale and iron while the seasons slowly reshape the overgrown scars of a once-frenetic, earth-bound commerce.

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.
