How to Use This West Kittanning, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

West Kittanning rises from the rugged, elevated terrain of the Allegheny Plateau, where the land tilts sharply toward the persistent current of the Allegheny River. It lies 19.4 miles east of Butler, PA (from Butler, PA: bearing 100°T), and is situated 0.6 miles southwest of Kittanning. The air here carries the cool, damp weight of the river valley, often caught in the transition between the dense, wooded slopes and the expansive, broken horizon. To the east, the distant, hazy blue of the Allegheny Mountains suggests a world beyond the immediate reach of the local topography, while the nearby descent into Graff Hollow marks a distinct shift in the earth’s contour. Within the local landscape, West Kittanning Park provides a quiet, green reprieve where the light filters through the canopy, illuminating the quiet, steady pace of the day as it moves across the hills.

Industry and the echoes of labor have long defined the character of the region, grounding the lives of those who inhabit these slopes. While the broader economy has shifted away from the heavy extraction and manufacturing that once dominated the riverbanks, the influence of the Allegheny River remains a constant presence, shaping the movement of goods and the historical identity of the surrounding area. Beyond the immediate municipal borders, the waters of Crooked Creek Lake offer a stillness that contrasts with the rhythmic, working pulse of the valley below. Residents of West Kittanning navigate a life defined by this intersection of river-carved geology and the enduring, practical spirit of the plateau, where the changing seasons turn the hills from deep, vibrant greens to the muted, skeletal gray of winter.
