How to Use This Woodsfield, Ohio Map

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

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.

Woodsfield sits upon the high, fractured plateau of the Appalachian foothills, where the land breaks into a series of steep, wooded ridges and deep, shadowed ravines. It lies 30.0 miles northeast of Marietta, OH (from Marietta, OH: bearing 37°T), and is situated 15.9 miles west-northwest of New Martinsville. Standingstone Run cuts a narrow, winding path through the local topography, its presence marked by the persistent sound of water moving over limestone and shale. To the west, the silhouette of Moose Ridge defines the horizon, its dark crest often blurred by the low-hanging mist that clings to the hollows during the early morning hours. Beyond the immediate municipal limits, the terrain descends into the quiet depths of Jackson Hollow, while the quiet, reflective surface of Woodsfield Reservoir offers a stillness that contrasts with the constant, subtle movement of the wind through the surrounding hardwood canopy. The light here at dusk possesses a singular, bruised quality, turning the autumn foliage to a deep, rusted copper before the long shadows of the ridges swallow the valley floor.

Monroe Memorial Park serves as the central gathering point for Woodsfield, providing a green, manicured anchor for a population long defined by the extraction of subterranean wealth and the steady labor of the land. Historically, the local economy shifted from the initial clearing of timber to the rhythmic pulse of oil and gas exploration, a legacy visible in the rusted infrastructure that occasionally emerges from the brush. The surrounding landscape, shaped by the proximity of the Wayne National Forest - Athens Ranger District - Marietta Unit, remains a dense, tangled expanse of oak and hickory that dictates the pace of life for those who remain. Daily existence in Woodsfield is marked by the slow, deliberate passage of trucks along the ridge roads and the seasonal cycle of the regional harvest, creating a sense of isolation that feels both rugged and enduring. Even as the modern world intrudes, the gravity of the hills keeps the focus inward, tethering the residents to the specific, difficult earth that has sustained them for generations.

About This Woodsfield Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Woodsfield, Ohio. Coordinates: 39.762573, -81.115384. 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 Woodsfield includes the ZIP code (43793), telephone area code (740), county seat of Monroe County (Woodsfield), and school district assignment (Switzerland of Ohio Local 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.
