How to Use This Ashland, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Ashland occupies a steep, rugged corridor where the earth’s crust seems to have buckled under the weight of its own geological history. It lies 24.6 miles north of Altoona, PA (from Altoona, PA: bearing 8°T), and is situated 6.1 miles west-southwest of Philipsburg. The Coal Run carves a narrow, persistent path through the local topography, its waters reflecting the deep, mineral-stained tones of the surrounding soil. Beyond the immediate settlement, the terrain shifts into a series of ridges and deep depressions, including the quiet, sunken expanse of Crowns Nest Hollow seven miles to the west. While the distant, hazy blue silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains define the horizon line twenty-seven miles away, the immediate landscape is dominated by dense, terrestrial growth, much like the woodlands of the Moshannon State Forest found seventeen miles to the north. Visitors seeking a moment of stillness often look toward the quiet surface of the Osceola Reservoir, six miles away, where the water holds the reflection of the clouds in a perfect, muted gray.

Ashland carries the deep, resonant legacy of the anthracite industry, an era that shaped the very streets and the stoic character of the local architecture. While the economy has long since moved away from the intense extraction that once defined the rhythm of daily life, the influence of those generations remains visible in the sturdy, brick-fronted buildings and the deliberate, unhurried pace of the residents. A short distance away, the grounds of Brisbin Dam Park provide a space for quiet recreation, serving as a reminder of how the land has reclaimed the hollows and hillsides once turned over by heavy machinery. On autumn afternoons, the light hits the slate roofs of Ashland with a particular, pale clarity, turning the town into a study of shadow and texture that feels entirely removed from the clamor of the modern world.

About This Ashland Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ashland, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.781106, -76.345046. 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 Ashland includes the ZIP code (16666, 17921), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Clearfield County (Clearfield), and school district assignment (North Schuylkill 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.
