How to Use This Hollsopple, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Hollsopple emerges from the rugged topography of the Allegheny Plateau where the Stonycreek River carves a deliberate path through the earth, defining the orientation of the valley floor. It lies 7.9 miles south of Johnstown, PA (from Johnstown, PA: bearing 183°T), and is situated 7.2 miles south of Westmont. The landscape here is characterized by a persistent, muscular geology, where the land rises into dense, tangled woodlands that eventually give way to the distant, hazy silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains on the horizon. A quiet stillness hangs over the area, especially when the afternoon light catches the surface of the nearby Quemahoning Reservoir, turning the water into a sheet of hammered pewter. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain folds into the shadowed depth of Moonshine Hollow, where the air feels cooler and carries the damp, earthy scent of ancient, leaf-strewn soil.

Hollsopple carries the weight of a regional history rooted in the extraction of coal and the steady, rhythmic labor of the industrial mid-Atlantic. While the heavy machinery of the past has largely vanished, the local economy remains tied to the resilient character of a population that values the maintenance of its homes and the quiet utility of its public spaces, such as the local gathering point at Benson Borough Park. The pace of life here is measured by the changing seasons rather than the frantic tempo of larger industrial hubs, leaving residents to find their recreation in the proximity of the wilderness, whether traversing the Lost Turkey Trail or venturing toward the mist of White Tail Falls. It is a place where the architecture of the working class remains, sturdy and unpretentious, standing as a quiet record of families who have anchored themselves to these ridges for generations.

About This Hollsopple Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hollsopple, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.212576, -78.928914. 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 Hollsopple includes the ZIP code (15935), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Somerset County (Somerset), 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.
