Explore Pine Glen, Pennsylvania, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Pine Glen, 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 Pine Glen.
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.

Pine Glen occupies a quiet expanse of the Pennsylvania interior where the earth rises in slow, deliberate folds. It lies 22.9 miles north-northwest of State College, PA (from State College, PA: bearing 333°T), and is situated 18.9 miles northwest of Bellefonte. Boake Run cuts a slender, silver line through the lower terrain here, its current moving with a persistent, cold clarity that defines the local hydrology. Beyond the immediate clearings, the land deepens into the dense, shadowed reaches of State Game Land 100, where the canopy remains thick enough to mute the afternoon sun into a soft, amber haze. To the west, the silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains anchor the horizon, standing as a distant, jagged reminder of the rugged geological spine that dictates the character of the entire region. The air in Pine Glen carries a distinct, sharp crispness, smelling of damp earth and crushed pine needles that linger long after the morning mist has retreated from the hollows.
History in Pine Glen remains tethered to the slow extraction and stewardship of the surrounding wild, reflecting an economy that has long balanced the modest needs of its inhabitants against the vastness of the Moshannon State Forest. Residents often look toward the nearby Akely Hollow as a natural corridor for wildlife, maintaining a pace of life that prizes the quietude of the woods over the frantic tempo of industrial centers. While the Spruce Run Trail provides a path for those seeking to traverse the deeper thickets, the daily pulse of the place is found in the stillness of the smaller clearings and the quiet observation of the land. Even with the presence of the Snow Shoe Reservoir a short distance away, the spirit of Pine Glen is defined by the endurance of its timbered ridges and the patient, unhurried growth of a landscape that has seen little need to change its fundamental shape.

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.
