Explore Ickesburg, Pennsylvania, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Ickesburg, 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 Ickesburg.
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.

Ickesburg emerges from the earth as a quiet settlement defined by the persistent, rhythmic flow of Panther Creek, which carves a narrow path through the surrounding fields. It lies 19.6 miles north-northwest of Carlisle, PA (from Carlisle, PA: bearing 334°T), and is situated 15.2 miles southeast of Lewistown. This landscape is shaped by the deep, shadowed creases of the Appalachian Mountains, which loom to the west, their ridgelines forming a jagged silhouette against the wide, inland sky. Beyond the immediate reach of the village, the terrain dips into the quietude of Blue Spring Hollow, where the air holds a cooler, heavier stillness. The light here at dusk possesses a singular, bruised clarity, illuminating the transition from the cultivated plots of the valley floor to the dense, dark stands of timber that mark the approach toward the Tuscarora State Forest.
Ickesburg carries the weight of a long-standing agricultural heritage, where the local economy remains tethered to the cycles of the soil and the seasonal demands of the harvest. Life here moves with a deliberate, measured pace, centered on the modest expanse of the Ickesburg Lions Club Park (Rt.17), a space that serves as a communal anchor for those who call the area home. While the nearby Yohn Trail offers a passage for those seeking the solitude of the woods, the village itself remains a place of steady, understated industry, removed from the frantic noise of modern transit. The history of the region lingers in the architecture of the older buildings, standing as silent witnesses to generations who labored to sustain this life, finding a modest, enduring beauty in the simple persistence of their work.

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.
