How to Use This Alpine, Tennessee Map

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

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 Alpine, Tennessee

Alpine is a locality in Overton County, Tennessee, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 8.0 people per km². Alpine is located at 36.3948°N, 85.2169°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 38543.

Alpine holds the quiet, low-slung geography of a place defined by the steady incision of Nettlecarrier Creek as it carves through the limestone bedrock of the Cumberland Plateau. It lies 3.2 miles south-southeast of Monroe, TN (from Monroe, TN: bearing 154°T), and is situated 7.4 miles west-southwest of Cooper. The land here settles into the limestone cradle of Means Hollow, where the earth seems to exhale a cool, damp breath in the early morning, and the shadow of the distant Cumberland Mountains hangs like a dark, serrated hem against the horizon. Sunlight catches on the limestone ridges, turning the gray stone to a pale, bone-white intensity, while the nearby Alpine Mountain Wildlife Management Area preserves the wilder, scrubby timber of the high ground. A short distance away, the surface of Jolly Lake remains a mirror for the shifting clouds, undisturbed by anything more than the occasional ripple of a dragonfly or the weight of a stray leaf.

Alpine preserves a rhythm of life dictated by the slow, seasonal pulse of rural labor and the lingering echoes of its agrarian foundation. The economy remains tethered to the land, balancing small-scale timber and the quiet persistence of family-held tracts against the encroaching stillness of an era that has largely moved toward the cities. There is an austerity in the way the local life unfolds, marked by the mechanical hum of farm equipment and the solitary figures tending to the fence lines that partition the hollow. History here is not written in grand monuments but in the weathered wood of barns and the way the local vernacular clings to the older, sharper edges of the Tennessee speech. It is a place where the passage of time feels measured by the gradual accumulation of dust on the porch rail and the inevitable, seasonal turning of the forest canopy.

About This Alpine Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Alpine, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.394786, -85.216906. 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 Alpine includes the ZIP code (38543), telephone area code (423), county seat of Overton County (Livingston), and school district assignment.

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.
