How to Use This Chinook, Washington Map

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

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.

Chinook claims a damp, low-slung geography where the horizon is defined by the heavy, silver-bellied clouds typical of the Pacific Northwest. It lies 8.0 miles northwest of Astoria, OR (from Astoria, OR: bearing 317°T), and is situated 7.5 miles north of Warrenton. The landscape slopes gradually toward the water, dominated by the brooding presence of Scarboro Hill, which stands as a silent sentinel over the surrounding marshlands and timber. Just a mile away, the Chinook River winds its dark, silt-heavy path toward the salt air, cutting through the terrain before emptying into the expansive reach of Baker Bay. Further afield, the Olympic-Willapa Hills-South Puget Sound Wildlife Area Complex offers a sprawling buffer of wild, unmanicured greenery, while the quiet waters of Jetty Lagoon mirror the gray sky, providing a sanctuary for migratory birds that navigate the coastal flyways.

Chinook carries the weight of a maritime heritage that has long dictated the flow of its local economy, once built entirely upon the silver harvest of the sea and the rugged labor of the gillnet fleets. The rhythm of daily life remains tethered to the tides, where the industrial echoes of the Hammond Boat Basin and the distant, shifting sands of Sand Island remind residents of the precarious, shifting nature of their shoreline. Life here feels measured by the haul of the nets and the seasonal migration of fish, a persistent cycle that has outlasted the ebb and flow of regional industry. There is a specific, melancholy beauty in the way the morning mist clings to the docks, softening the edges of the pilings and turning the routine work of the harbor into a quiet, blue-toned ritual.
