How to Use This Rauchtown, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Rauchtown, Pennsylvania

Rauchtown is a locality in Clinton County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 722. The population density is 156.4 people per km². Rauchtown is located at 41.1229°N, 77.2361°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 17740.

Rauchtown occupies a quiet corner of the landscape where the land yields to the persistent, rhythmic cutting of the Rauchtown Creek. It lies 14.7 miles west-southwest of Williamsport, PA (from Williamsport, PA: bearing 236°T), and is situated 5.7 miles south-southeast of Jersey Shore. The topography here is defined by the proximity of The Rocky Gorge, a sharp indentation in the earth that pulls the gaze toward the rugged complexities of the terrain. While the Appalachian Mountains remain distant silhouettes against the horizon, the immediate ground is shaped by the dense, verdant influence of the Tiadaghton State Forest, which exerts a cooling pressure on the summer air. Light in this valley seems to thicken as it filters through the canopy, settling in long, amber pools across the fields before the evening chill descends. Residents often find their way to the Rauchtown Road Playground to catch the final, slanted rays of the sun, watching the shadows stretch across the grass as the day’s work concludes.

Rauchtown carries the weight of a history rooted in the timber and agrarian cycles that once dictated the pace of life for every family in the valley. The local economy has long since shifted away from the intensive extraction of the past, yet the remnants of that labor remain visible in the sturdy, unadorned architecture and the persistent care given to the land. For those seeking a deeper connection to the woods, the Parker Shanty Trail provides a path into the surrounding wilderness, offering a silent passage through the underbrush that has remained largely unchanged for generations. Life here moves with a deliberate, measured cadence, punctuated by the occasional trip toward the water at Keller Reservoir or the simple routine of maintaining property boundaries that have stood for decades. There is a profound stability in the way the seasons turn over this ground, grounding the people of Rauchtown in a sense of place that requires no embellishment to feel complete.

About This Rauchtown Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Rauchtown, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.122851, -77.236081. 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 Rauchtown includes the ZIP code (17740), 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 (Jersey Shore 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.
