How to Use This Boissevain, Virginia Map

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

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 Boissevain, Virginia

Boissevain is a locality in Tazewell County, Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 457. The population density is 82.8 people per km². Boissevain is located at 37.2818°N, 81.3804°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 24605.

Boissevain occupies a narrow, quiet stretch of land where the earth rises in slow, deliberate swells toward the horizon. It lies 45.4 miles west-northwest of Radford, VA (from Radford, VA: bearing 283°T), and is situated 8.7 miles west of Bluefield. The Laurel Fork carves a persistent, silver path through the landscape, its waters cold and clear, reflecting the shifting moods of the sky as they move past the edge of the clearing. Beyond the immediate perimeter, the dense greenery of the Jefferson National Forest looms sixteen miles away, grounding the horizon in a deep, permanent shade of emerald. Nearby, the Anawalt Lake Wildlife Management Area offers a sanctuary of tall grasses and muted silence, while the low, sloping descent into Farling Hollow creates a natural basin that holds the morning mist long after the sun has begun its climb.

Boissevain remains defined by the legacy of the subterranean veins that once dictated its purpose and prompted its growth. The rhythm of the days here is measured not by the frantic pulse of industry, but by the steady, patient work of those who remain rooted in these hills, far from the reach of any maritime influence. While the Appalachian Mountains stand as a distant, jagged silhouette against the western sky, the local character is shaped by the proximity of the earth itself and the traditions of a landscape that demands resilience. Even as the quiet settles over the porches and driveways, the atmosphere retains a sense of endurance, a lingering connection to the labor and the stillness that have long defined the life of the people living within the shade of these ancient slopes.

About This Boissevain Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Boissevain, Virginia. Coordinates: 37.281783, -81.38038. 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 Boissevain includes the ZIP code (24605), telephone area code (276), county seat of Tazewell County (Tazewell), and school district assignment (Tazewell County Public Schools).

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.
