How to Use This McElhattan, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

About McElhattan, Pennsylvania

McElhattan is a locality in Clinton County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,224. The population density is 141.2 people per km². McElhattan is located at 41.1539°N, 77.3521°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 17745, 17748.

McElhattan occupies a narrow corridor of land defined by the steady, persistent presence of the West Branch Susquehanna River. It lies 19.6 miles west-southwest of Williamsport, PA (from Williamsport, PA: bearing 253°T), and is situated 4.7 miles east-northeast of Lock Haven. The landscape here is characterized by the tension between the river’s low, floodplain banks and the steep, forested elevations that rise toward the distant Appalachian Mountains. To the south, the terrain dips into the quiet, shaded depths of Kryder Hollow, where the air remains cooler and the light filters through the canopy in muted shades of green. Travelers seeking a moment of respite often gravitate toward Wayne Municipal Park, a modest stretch of green space that offers a clear vantage point of the water’s movement. Three miles away, the surface of Keller Reservoir remains largely undisturbed, reflecting the shifting colors of the sky as the seasons transition from the sharp clarity of autumn to the heavy, muted grays of winter.

McElhattan retains the quiet, deliberate pace of a place shaped by the industry of the river and the labor of the surrounding hills. Historical echoes of the timber and rail eras still linger, though the current economy relies on a quieter rhythm of local trade and the maintenance of essential infrastructure. Those who wander the Kammerdiner Cross Line Trail, located just four miles away, often find themselves tracing the old boundaries of a region that once served as a vital artery for the transport of raw materials. Beyond the immediate reach of the local roads, the vast expanse of Tiadaghton State Forest provides a wild, untamed backdrop that reminds residents of the dense wilderness that once defined the entire province. The character of McElhattan is found in these intersections—the way the afternoon sun hits the river, the stillness of the hollows, and the enduring connection to the land that has supported generations of inhabitants.

About This McElhattan Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of McElhattan, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.153938, -77.352108. 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 McElhattan includes the ZIP code (17745, 17748), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Clinton County (Lock Haven), and school district assignment (Keystone Central School District).

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.
