How to Use This Blakeslee, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Blakeslee occupies a quiet intersection of dense woodland and rugged terrain where the atmosphere remains cool and damp even in the height of summer. It lies 14.8 miles northwest of Chestnuthill, PA (from Chestnuthill, PA: bearing 320°T), and is situated 8.9 miles northwest of Sierra View. The landscape is defined by the steady flow of Tobyhanna Creek, which carves its path through the earth just a mile from the center of Blakeslee, occasionally tumbling over the stone ledges of Tobyhanna Falls. Beyond the immediate canopy, the land rises toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Pocono Mountains, while the stillness of Lake Sinca offers a reflective surface that mirrors the shifting gray and green of the sky. Within the protected boundaries of the Austin T. Blakeslee Natural Area, the forest floor remains undisturbed, covered in a thick layer of pine needles and moss that softens the sound of every footfall.

History in this region is carved into the geology of the land, marked by the proximity of the Delaware-Lehigh State Experimental Forest and the rugged, rocky expanse of the nearby Boulder Field Trail. The economy has long moved away from the heavy industry of the past, shifting toward a slower pace that favors those who appreciate the solitude of the woods and the proximity of Lime Hollow. Life here follows the subtle cycles of the seasons, where the primary movement is the changing light across the trees rather than the rush of a busy thoroughfare. Residents and visitors alike find a sense of permanence in the persistence of the creek and the deep, silent shadows cast by the timber, maintaining a way of life that values the preservation of the natural landscape over rapid development.
