How to Use This Leck Kill, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Leck Kill occupies a quiet expanse of the Pennsylvania interior where the land unfolds in a series of deliberate, verdant swells. It lies 21.8 miles south-southwest of Bloomsburg, PA (from Bloomsburg, PA: bearing 205°T), and is situated 6.2 miles southwest of Shamokin. Schwaben Creek traces a narrow, serpentine path through the low-lying meadows, its waters mirroring the shifting pallor of the sky as it moves toward the horizon. Beyond the immediate fields, the terrain rises toward the distant, hazy blue silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains, which guard the boundary of the region. A mile from the center, the dense, unmanaged brush of State Game Land 084 offers a sanctuary for the local fauna, its thickets deepening into a profound shade of forest-green as the sun slips behind the western ridges.

Agriculture remains the quiet pulse of Leck Kill, where the soil dictates the pace of the seasons and the cycle of the workday. The legacy of the Pennsylvania Dutch influence lingers in the sturdy, pragmatic architecture of the farmsteads and the careful stewardship of the surrounding acreage. While the industry of the past has largely faded into the earth, the residents maintain a rhythmic, grounded existence, often looking toward the solitude of the nearby landscape or the quiet trails like James Path for a reprieve from the modern world. Life here moves with the deliberate weight of a slow-turning wheel, defined by the persistence of the crops and the enduring stillness of the inland air.

About This Leck Kill Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Leck Kill, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.716752, -76.629963. 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 Leck Kill includes the ZIP code (17836), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Northumberland County (Sunbury), 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.
