How to Use This Big Bass Lake, Pennsylvania Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Big Bass Lake, 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 Big Bass Lake.

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.

Big Bass Lake occupies a quiet, inland stretch of the Commonwealth where the earth rises in rhythmic, forested swells toward the distant Pocono Mountains. It lies 14.0 miles southeast of Dunmore, PA (from Dunmore, PA: bearing 145°T), and is situated 4.0 miles south-southeast of Daleville. The Lehigh River traces a path less than a mile from the water’s edge, its current carving a cool, persistent presence into the landscape that defines the local hydrology. Nearby, the stillness of Lake Natalie offers a mirror to the sky, while the expansive, protected woodlands of Gouldsboro State Park provide a dense, green buffer against the encroaching pace of the modern world. Sunlight filters through the canopy in thin, pale shafts, illuminating a terrain defined by deep loam and the stubborn, enduring granite of the plateau.

History in this region is tethered to the slow transformation of the landscape, moving from the quiet solitude of the timber era to the residential character that Big Bass Lake maintains today. The local economy finds its pulse in the seasonal shifts of the interior, where the proximity to the Delaware-Lehigh State Experimental Forest invites a reverence for the timbered ridges and the hollows like Gas Hollow that punctuate the geography. Residents often traverse the Lakeside Trail, finding a steady, rhythmic connection to the land that feels disconnected from the frantic noise of larger urban centers. Life here is measured by the clarity of the air and the lengthening shadows that climb the hills as dusk settles, leaving the community to exist in a persistent, deliberate calm.
