How to Use This Lumber City, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Lumber City emerges from the verdant, folded earth where the persistent currents of Kishacoquillas Creek carve a path through the quiet basin. It lies 16.4 miles southeast of State College, PA (from State College, PA: bearing 124°T), and is situated 4.5 miles north-northwest of Lewistown. The landscape surrounding Lumber City shifts into the distinct, ridged topography of the Appalachian Mountains, which stand as a hazy, blue-gray sentinel on the horizon twelve miles to the west. Within three miles, the terrain deepens into the quiet expanse of Dry Valley, a place where the light at dusk pools like spilled amber across the fields. Residents often find their way to the Mifflin County Youth Park, a local focal point that anchors the immediate surroundings, while the more adventurous might seek out the worn, earth-packed tread of Sharps Trail. Five miles away, the surface of Laurel Creek Reservoir holds the reflection of the sky, providing a stark, still contrast to the restless movement of the nearby creek.

History in Lumber City remains tethered to the timber and industry that once defined the regional economy, leaving behind a legacy of hard-wrought labor that still influences the character of the settlement. Twelve miles distant, the dense, sprawling canopy of Rothrock State Forest continues to serve as a reminder of the vast woodland that originally drew settlers to this inland territory. Today, the pace of life maintains a deliberate, measured cadence, stripped of the frantic energy found in larger industrial hubs. Life here revolves around the seasonal shifts of the Pennsylvania landscape, where the air turns crisp and carries the scent of damp soil and pine long before the first frost arrives. The people of Lumber City walk streets that mirror the steady, unpretentious endurance of the surrounding ridges, finding purpose in the simple, ongoing maintenance of a life built upon these ancient, limestone-strewn foundations.
