How to Use This Moose Run, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Moose Run, Pennsylvania

Moose Run is a locality in Centre County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 171. The population density is 183.4 people per km². Moose Run is located at 40.9514°N, 77.8000°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 16823.

Moose Run emerges from the landscape as a quiet confluence of water and earth, defined by the narrow, persistent passage of its namesake creek. It lies 11.4 miles north-northeast of State College, PA (from State College, PA: bearing 16°T), and is situated 2.9 miles north-northwest of Bellefonte. The topography here leans into the rugged character of the inland interior, where the land drops away into the shadowed depths of Holt Hollow before rising toward the far-off, hazy silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains. Light at dusk often pools in the low-lying basins, turning the damp soil a deep, bruised violet while the surrounding woodland remains tangled and dense. A few miles distant, the expansive surface of Foster Joseph Sayers Lake reflects the shifting temperaments of the sky, serving as a vast, glass-like anchor for the regional horizon.

Economic life in Moose Run has long been tethered to the timber and soil of the surrounding terrain, drawing a quiet persistence from the nearby Howard State Nursery where the cycle of growth is meticulously managed. The character of the locality is marked by a deliberate, measured pace, visible on weekends when the activity shifts toward the Bald Eagle Area Baseball Fields, where the sharp crack of a bat echoes against the stillness of the valley. While the more demanding terrain of the Sand Rock Trail beckons to those seeking a steeper ascent, the daily rhythm remains grounded in the modest, hardworking traditions of the plateau. Residents here move with an awareness of the changing seasons, finding a steady, unadorned beauty in the way the frost settles over the creek beds and the early autumn fog clings to the timberland.

About This Moose Run Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Moose Run, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.951369, -77.800001. 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 Moose Run includes the ZIP code (16823), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Centre County (Bellefonte), and school district assignment (Bald Eagle Area 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.
