How to Use This Skytop, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Skytop, Pennsylvania

Skytop is a locality in Monroe County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 18.0 people per km². Skytop is located at 41.2279°N, 75.2382°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 18357.

Skytop occupies a rugged expanse of high ground where the Leavitt Branch carves a narrow, persistent path through the earth. It lies 15.0 miles north of Stroud, PA (from Stroud, PA: bearing 355°T), and is situated 9.8 miles northeast of Mount Pocono. The air here holds a sharp, clean clarity that speaks of the elevation provided by the nearby Pocono Mountains, which loom as a dark, serrated silhouette against the western sky. Two miles to the east, the stillness of Goose Pond reflects the shifting gray of cloud cover, while the terrain surrounding the Gravel Family Nature Preserve offers a dense, tangled sanctuary of hemlock and oak. Deep Hollow cuts into the landscape four miles away, creating a cool, shadowed basin where the morning mist lingers long after the sun has breached the ridge lines.

Skytop maintains a quiet, deliberate pace defined by the seasonal rhythms of the inland woods and the legacy of its early twentieth-century development. The local economy remains tethered to the land and the hospitality of the high country, drawing travelers who seek the solitude of the Burley Inlet Trail or the quiet discipline of the surrounding wilderness. While the First Forest Tree Planting stands eight miles off as a reminder of deliberate conservation, the daily life of Skytop is marked by the simple, enduring labor of maintaining these slopes against the encroaching thickets. It is a place where the history is written in the stone foundations and the long, sloping drives, holding a character that is as unyielding and weathered as the shale beneath the topsoil.
