How to Use This Chester Hill, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Chester Hill rises above the deep, coal-stained cuts of the earth, defined by the relentless, winding path of Moshannon Creek that carves through the local geography like a dark vein. It lies 20.4 miles west-northwest of State College, PA (from State College, PA: bearing 289°T), and is situated 0.6 miles southwest of Philipsburg. The air here holds the crisp, metallic edge of the Allegheny Plateau, carrying the scent of damp shale and the cooling breath of the Allegheny Mountains visible as a jagged, indigo silhouette against the evening sky. To the north, the sprawling canopy of Moshannon State Forest anchors the horizon, while the quiet, reflective surface of Emigh Lake waits three miles away in a fold of the terrain. Near the center of the landscape, Homer Maney Memorial Field offers a flat, manicured expanse that contrasts with the rugged, overgrown slopes of Crowns Nest Hollow, where the shadows lengthen early and the silence of the woods asserts itself against the hum of modern life.

Chester Hill emerged from the hard labor of the extraction industries, a place where the economy was long dictated by the depth of the seams beneath the topsoil. The remnants of that industrial heritage remain in the sturdy, unadorned architecture of the older streets, which seem to hold the memory of shift changes and the soot of a busier century. Residents maintain a pace dictated by the seasons, often spending autumn afternoons walking the Black Bear Trail to watch the leaves turn to brittle copper and gold. Life in Chester Hill persists with a quiet resilience, anchored by the routine of the local ballfield and the steady, unobserved movement of the creek, which continues to shape the basin long after the heavy machinery has gone silent.
