How to Use This Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Lackawaxen commands a tranquil stretch of land where the Delaware River curves with deliberate grace through a landscape of steep, wooded slopes and deep, shadowed hollows. It lies 33.8 miles east of Dunmore, PA (from Dunmore, PA: bearing 82°T), and is situated 8.8 miles north-northeast of Lords Valley. The terrain rises in rugged swells toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Pocono Mountains, their jagged crests marking the horizon in shades of muted indigo. Within the protected boundaries of the Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River, the air carries a crisp, earthen scent of damp moss and hemlock needles, particularly as the low afternoon light slants through the canopy to illuminate the river's swift, dark currents. Three miles to the north, the still surface of Wolf Pond mirrors the shifting clouds, offering a quiet counterpoint to the persistent motion of the nearby waterway.

History clings to the earth here in the remnants of old stone foundations and the enduring legacy of the D&H Canal, which once tethered the local economy to the transport of anthracite coal. While the clamor of industrial transit has long since faded, Lackawaxen maintains a steady, deliberate pace, shifting its attention toward the preservation of its natural corridors and the quiet rhythms of seasonal life. Residents and visitors alike often find their way to the Steam Mill Trail, where the forest floor provides a soft, hushed path through the dense timberland that defines the region’s character. This sense of continuity remains, grounded in the interplay between the river’s steady flow and the enduring, silent presence of the woods that stretch outward toward the distant reaches of the landscape.
