Explore La Belle, 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 La Belle, 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 La Belle.
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.

La Belle occupies a quiet stretch of land where the Monongahela River carves a slow, deliberate path through the undulating terrain of the Allegheny Plateau. It lies 14.1 miles southwest of Rostraver, PA (from Rostraver, PA: bearing 220°T), and is situated 6.8 miles northeast of Jefferson Greene County. Heavy, humid air often clings to the riverbanks, casting a soft, diffuse light over the landscape as the day fades into a deep, bruised purple. Beyond the immediate banks, the topography rises into dense woodlands that hide the shadows of Black Dog Hollow, a nearby depression where the earth seems to hold onto the cool mist long after the sun has climbed high. The physical character of La Belle is defined by this constant, fluid presence of water and the rugged, unyielding clay of the hillsides.
La Belle carries the weight of a long industrial narrative, having once served as a vital artery for the transport of coal that fueled the fires of regional steel mills. The economy here has shifted in the decades since, leaving behind a pace of life that values the quietude of the Dutch Hill Ballfield, where the grass is kept trim and the local spirit lingers in the stillness. Residents recall a time when the river was a bustling, soot-stained highway, yet today the water moves with a quiet indifference, reflecting the changing seasons of the surrounding forest. While the distant, hazy silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains marks the horizon, the focus of La Belle remains firmly grounded in its own local rhythm, a place where the history of labor is etched into the very soil that supports the modest, enduring houses of its people.

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.
