How to Use This Inkerman, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Inkerman occupies a rugged stretch of land where the earth seems to hold the quiet, heavy weight of its anthracite inheritance. It lies 5.1 miles east-northeast of Kingston, PA (from Kingston, PA: bearing 59°T), and is situated 5.1 miles northeast of Wilkes-Barre. The horizon toward the east is defined by the distant, hazy silhouette of the Pocono Mountains, their peaks softening the sky in a muted charcoal bruise as the afternoon wanes. Closer to home, the terrain drops into the quiet moisture of Rough Hollow, while the local landscape finds its immediate character in the verdant expanse of Greenfield Park, which serves as the town’s primary anchor for green space. A mile away, the persistent, low-slung course of Gardner Creek carves through the soil, its water reflecting the shifting clouds in a way that suggests a slow, deliberate passage of time. The air here carries a crisp, mineral quality, particularly as the light catches the incline of the hills and turns the fields into shades of deep ochre and slate.

Inkerman bears the distinct marks of an industrial past, shaped by a heritage of coal extraction that once dictated the pulse of every hearth and home. While the primary engines of the economy have long since shifted, the structural bones of the locality remain, characterized by sturdy, brick-fronted dwellings that have weathered generations of winters. The pace of life is measured by the local cycle of the seasons rather than the frantic demands of larger centers, maintaining a steady, grounded consistency. Residents often find respite in the natural features that define the periphery, such as the distant, rushing sound of Whirlpool Canyon Falls or the still, reflective surface of Deep Hollow Pond, where the water remains undisturbed by the noise of modern transit. Even with the passage of decades, Inkerman retains a singular, unvarnished identity, one that values the endurance of its geography over the ephemeral trends of the outside world.
