How to Use This Mount Cobb, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Mount Cobb occupies a landscape of weathered ridges and dense, temperate woodlands that define the high plateau country. It lies 7.2 miles east of Dunmore, PA (from Dunmore, PA: bearing 93°T), and is situated 8.8 miles east of Scranton. The terrain here rises in modest, persistent swells, where the air often carries a crisp, thin quality sharpened by the elevation. Just a mile from the quiet banks of Rock Bottom Creek, the earth is a mosaic of shale and dark, fertile soil that supports hardy deciduous growth. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Pocono Mountains provide a jagged, blue-hued boundary against the sky, while the proximity of the Ritter Land Acquisition ensures that the forest remains a dominant presence, encroaching upon the edges of the settled clearings with an ancient, untamed persistence.

Mount Cobb retains a quiet, industrial gravity inherited from the era when anthracite mining shaped the regional identity and dictated the flow of local commerce. The economic pulse of the vicinity has shifted away from the deep shafts of the past, yet the influence remains in the sturdy, unadorned architecture and the deliberate pace of the daily routine. Residents find a sense of continuity in the nearby waters of the Moosic Lakes, which offer a reflective stillness contrasting with the more dramatic geological features found eight miles away at Nay Aug Park Gorge and the rushing descent of Nay Aug Falls. Life here is measured by the changing light upon the ridges and the seasonal rhythms of a geography that demands respect for its rugged, inland character.
