How to Use This De Young, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

De Young emerges from the dense, tangled canopy of the Allegheny National Forest like a quiet clearing carved from the deep, verdant solitude of the Pennsylvania timberlands. It lies 20.6 miles west-northwest of Saint Marys, PA (from Saint Marys, PA: bearing 299°T), and is situated 8.2 miles southwest of Kane. The landscape here is defined by the persistent, rhythmic erosion of the high plateau, where the terrain drops into the quietude of Bush Hollow and the sharp, sudden cuts of the earth reveal layers of shale and moss-darkened stone. A mile from the center of the grid, the waters of Coon Run carve a narrow, silver seam through the undergrowth, their movement constant even when the air hangs thick and heavy with the scent of damp hemlock. In the late afternoon, the light filters through the high branches in thin, dusty shafts, illuminating the way the land leans into the shadows of the Allegheny Mountains far to the east, creating a sense of scale that feels both ancient and profoundly still.

De Young carries the weight of a history forged in the extraction of wood and the labor of the sawmills that once hummed in the clearings. The economy has shifted, yet the pulse of the place remains tethered to the vast, encompassing sprawl of the Allegheny National Forest, which acts as both a boundary and a sanctuary for those who walk the nearby Twin Lakes Trail. Residents move with the measured pace of people who understand the seasonal turn of the woods, where the proximity to Ridgway Reservoir provides a stark, blue contrast to the endless, undulating green of the timber. There is a distinct sobriety to the architecture here, marked by sturdy, utilitarian structures that seem to accept the damp chill of the plateau without complaint, grounding the town in an identity that favors endurance over ornamentation.

About This De Young Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of De Young, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.570003, -78.909995. 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 De Young includes the ZIP code (16735, 16728, 15825), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Elk County (Ridgway), and school district assignment.

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.
