How to Use This Lancing, Tennessee Map

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

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 Lancing, Tennessee

Lancing is a locality in Morgan County, Tennessee, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 8.0 people per km². Lancing is located at 36.1206°N, 84.6538°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 37770.

Lancing occupies a quiet expanse of the Cumberland Plateau, defined by the persistent, rhythmic flow of Campground Creek as it carves through the sandstone bedrock. It lies 1.4 miles north-northwest of Morgan, TN (from Morgan, TN: bearing 347°T), and is situated 15.4 miles east-northeast of Fairfield Glade. The air here carries a heavy, damp stillness, particularly when the golden light of late afternoon catches the mist rising from the nearby Obed Wild and Scenic River. To the west, the silhouettes of the Cumberland Mountains assert a dark, jagged boundary against the evening sky, while the deep, verdant timber of the Morgan State Forest provides a dense, insulating quietude. In the quiet reaches of Happy Hollow, the terrain folds into itself, creating a series of shadows that lengthen as the sun retreats behind the ridge lines, leaving the woods to cool in shades of slate and deep indigo.

Lancing retains a character forged by the slow, deliberate work of the land, where the local economy remains tethered to the timber and modest agriculture that have sustained families for generations. The legacy of the region is etched into the rugged, uneven ground, far from the frantic pace of larger hubs, favoring a life defined by the seasonal cycles of the woods rather than the demands of modern commerce. Travelers who venture off the main roads occasionally find their way to the hidden cascade of Jacks Rock Falls, a place where the water’s persistent friction against the stone echoes the long, steady history of the settlers who first cleared these slopes. Life in Lancing moves with a gravity of its own, grounded in the stubborn resilience of the soil and the quiet, enduring presence of the surrounding wilderness.

About This Lancing Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lancing, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.120631, -84.653831. 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 Lancing includes the ZIP code (37770), telephone area code (865), county seat of Morgan County (Wartburg), 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.
