How to Use This Donaldson, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Donaldson occupies a quiet expanse of the Pennsylvania interior, where the land rises in deliberate, forested swells that define the horizon. It lies 28.3 miles northwest of Saint Marys, PA (from Saint Marys, PA: bearing 304°T), and is situated 14.5 miles south-southeast of Warren. The South Branch Tionesta Creek carves a narrow, persistent path through the terrain, its waters moving with a steady, cooling clarity that anchors the local landscape. Nearby, the Allegheny National Forest blankets the earth in a dense, unbroken canopy of hemlock and hardwoods, offering a stillness that seems to absorb the sound of passing seasons. On the edge of this woodland, the North Country Trail provides a measured route for those who move through the undergrowth, tracing the contours of a region where the light at dusk turns a singular, bruised purple against the dark timber.

History in Donaldson remains quiet, reflected in the modest architecture and the remnants of an economy once tied to the deep timber and the slow extraction of earth’s resources. Life here follows the rhythm of the inland climate, where winters arrive with a heavy, muffling weight and summers settle into a humid, verdant heat. While the broader Allegheny Mountains remain a distant, hazy silhouette against the western sky, the local character is shaped by the proximity of the wilderness and the occasional, mirrored surface of Deer Lick Reservoir. People here maintain a focused, private pace, tending to their homes and the land with a pragmatic grace that honors the long, shadowed tenure of this Pennsylvania landscape.

About This Donaldson Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Donaldson, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.636341, -76.405873. 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 Donaldson includes the ZIP code (16347, 17981), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Warren County (Warren), and school district assignment (Pine Grove Area 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.
