How to Use This Yellow Springs, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Yellow Springs, Pennsylvania

Yellow Springs is a locality in Blair County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 159. The population density is 21.8 people per km². Yellow Springs is located at 40.5173°N, 78.2067°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 16693.

Yellow Springs emerges from the landscape as a quiet intersection of limestone earth and the persistent, clear flow of Yellow Spring Run. It lies 9.9 miles east of Altoona, PA (from Altoona, PA: bearing 90°T), and is situated 8.0 miles east of Greenwood. The atmosphere here holds a particular weight, where the light at dusk softens against the heavy, mineral-rich soil of Canoe Valley, casting long shadows that seem to anchor the buildings to the ground. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains define the horizon, providing a permanent, jagged edge to the sky that contrasts with the softer, immediate terrain of the valley floor. Only a mile away, the quiet expanse of State Game Land 166 offers a dense, undisturbed refuge of brush and timber, while the deeper, stillness of Ganister Blue Hole waits four miles out, a concentrated reflection of the sky amidst the trees.

History in Yellow Springs remains visible in the architecture of the older structures, which stand as deliberate, sturdy responses to the challenges of the regional climate. The local economy has long been shaped by the interplay between these natural resources and the necessity of industry, a legacy that lingers in the way the town organizes its daily labor and commerce. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the influence of the wider plateau is felt in the steady, rhythmic movement of the seasons, which dictate the pace of life far more than any clock. Residents move through the day with an awareness of the proximity of the Indian Trail, a reminder of the paths carved into this region long before the current roads were paved, grounding the modern experience of Yellow Springs in a much older, more persistent reality.

About This Yellow Springs Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Yellow Springs, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.517293, -78.206677. 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 Yellow Springs includes the ZIP code (16693), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Blair County (Hollidaysburg), and school district assignment (Williamsburg Community 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.
