Explore Saltsburg, 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 Saltsburg, 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 Saltsburg.
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.

Saltsburg occupies a quiet bend where the Kiskiminetas River carves a deliberate path through the rugged terrain of the Allegheny Plateau. It lies 13.5 miles east-northeast of Murrysville, PA (from Murrysville, PA: bearing 73°T), and is situated 1.5 miles west-northwest of White. The surrounding landscape is defined by deep woodlands and the persistent, slow-moving current of the water, which catches the pale, slanting light of late afternoon in a way that turns the surface to hammered pewter. To the east, the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains anchor the horizon, while the terrain itself remains a complex architecture of high ridges and deep, shadowed ravines like Boggs Hollow. Residents move through a climate marked by sharp winters and humid, verdant summers, where the air often holds the damp, earthy scent of river silt and heavy forest canopy.
Saltsburg evolved from the early promise of the canal era, when the movement of goods dictated the rhythm of daily life and established the physical character of its streets. The local economy, once tied to the labor of the river and the extraction of raw materials, has shifted toward the preservation of its nineteenth-century architecture and the quiet utility of the West Penn Trail. This trail now serves as a primary artery for those seeking the stillness of the woods, tracing the old rail beds where heavy freight once rumbled. Life in Saltsburg carries the weight of a long industrial memory, yet the quiet of the present remains its most notable feature, particularly near Mannitto Lake, where the water mirrors the shifting gray and gold of the sky.

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.
