How to Use This Foot of Ten, Pennsylvania Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Foot of Ten, 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 Foot of Ten.

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.

About Foot of Ten, Pennsylvania

Foot of Ten is a locality in Blair County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 560. The population density is 374.1 people per km². Foot of Ten is located at 40.4159°N, 78.4553°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 16635.

Foot of Ten occupies a rugged transition where the low-lying terrain begins its earnest climb toward the distant, hazy ramparts of the Allegheny Mountains. It lies 7.8 miles south-southwest of Altoona, PA (from Altoona, PA: bearing 204°T), and is situated 3.6 miles west-southwest of Hollidaysburg. The landscape is defined by the steady, persistent pulse of Blair Gap Run, which cuts a narrow path through the earth, drawing the eye toward the shadowed contours of Maple Hollow. Here, the air holds a cool, mineral weight, especially as the late afternoon light flattens against the slope, turning the surrounding scrub and hardwood into a study of muted ochre and deep, bruised gray. It is a place where the land itself seems to hold its breath, waiting for the seasons to shift across the uneven ground that marks the ascent into the higher, more formidable ridges of the interior.

Foot of Ten carries the quiet, mechanical ghost of a history built upon the labor of early transit and the movement of goods across the difficult, steep geography of the region. Where the economy once turned on the gears of iron and the steam of early industry, the pace has settled into a steady, modest maintenance of domestic life, far removed from the clamor of the wider world. Residents might spend a Saturday morning near the Duncansville Reservoir, where the water mirrors the sky with a clarity that belies the industrial grit of the past, or find quietude in the green, manicured stretches of Duncansville Memorial Park. The character of Foot of Ten remains tethered to this intersection of old engineering and the enduring, silent presence of the hills, maintaining a deliberate distance from the frantic expansion found in the larger valleys below.

About This Foot of Ten Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Foot of Ten, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.415906, -78.455292. 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 Foot of Ten includes the ZIP code (16635), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Blair County (Hollidaysburg), and school district assignment (Hollidaysburg 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.
