How to Use This Clear Lake, Washington Map

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

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 Clear Lake, Washington

Clear Lake is a locality in Skagit County, Washington, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,578. The population density is 71.8 people per km². Clear Lake is located at 46.9284°N, 122.3050°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP codes: 98235, 98328.

Clear Lake holds a quiet, unassuming stillness within the low-lying basin of the Skagit Valley, where the morning light often clings to the damp needles of the surrounding conifers like a heavy, grey shroud. It lies 2.7 miles south of Sedro Woolley, WA (from Sedro Woolley, WA: bearing 178°T), and is situated 5.5 miles east-northeast of Mount Vernon. The land here does not rise in dramatic peaks but instead spreads across a flat, fertile floor, defined by the proximity of the Skagit River, which moves with a slow, deliberate gravity just a mile to the west. On the horizon, the distant, jagged silhouette of the Cascade Range serves as a cold reminder of the elevation that defines the wider region, though Clear Lake remains firmly anchored in the humid, thick air of the lowlands. At the edge of the water, Clear Lake Beach Park offers a singular point of access, where the texture of the earth shifts from tangled brush to the smoothed, dampened soil of the shore, providing a place to watch the mist rise as the day begins to warm.

History in Clear Lake remains tied to the timber and agricultural roots that once powered the labor of the valley, leaving behind a pace of life that values the steady, repetitive cycles of rural work over the restlessness of larger centers. The economy still reflects this heritage, characterized by local land use and the modest industries that occupy the spaces between the tall timber and the fields. While the distant Whirlpool Falls draws travelers to the more rugged terrain far to the east, life here focuses on the immediate, tangible reality of the valley, far removed from the far-flung, arid landscapes of the state’s interior. Even the memory of Summer Lake, sitting nine miles away, feels like a separate world, as the inhabitants of Clear Lake generally look toward the river and the immediate woodland for their daily connection to the natural world.
