Explore Amonate, Virginia, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Amonate, Virginia. 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 Virginia 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 Amonate.
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.

Amonate occupies a narrow, quiet crease in the earth where the light seems to linger in the hollows long after the sun has slipped behind the high, shadowed ridges. It lies 51.1 miles northeast of Bristol, VA (from Bristol, VA: bearing 36°T), and is situated 8.4 miles northwest of Tazewell. Beech Fork carves a serpentine path through the landscape, its waters pulling at the stones with a persistent, low-frequency hum that defines the acoustic character of the morning. To the north, the terrain rises into the rugged, forested folds of the Appalachian Mountains, visible as a jagged, indigo silhouette against the brightening sky. A mile away, the floor of Thirtyone Hollow collects the mist that rises from the damp soil, creating a heavy, silver stillness that softens the edges of the hardwoods. The air here holds the scent of wet shale and crushed leaves, a sharp, earthen perfume that marks the slow transition between the seasons.
Amonate maintains a stubborn, industrious memory of the coal seams that once defined its rhythm and dictated the architecture of its modest, sturdy dwellings. Though the heavy machinery has largely fallen silent, the imprint of that extractive history remains written in the dark, weathered timber of old structures and the enduring resilience of the people who remain. Beyond the immediate settlement, the Berwind Lake Wildlife Management Area offers a vast, untamed expanse where the forest reclaims the slopes, providing a stark contrast to the human-scaled geometry of the roads. Life here moves with the deliberate pace of a long-settled place, far removed from the frantic commerce of the lowland corridors. Travelers occasionally pass through, but the true pulse of Amonate beats in the quiet maintenance of porches and the steady, seasonal work of keeping the land, where the shadow of the peaks serves as both a boundary and a constant, silent companion.

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.
