How to Use This Cliffdell, Washington Map

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

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.

Cliffdell emerges as a rugged corridor where the Naches River carves a restless, crystalline path through the deep, pine-shadowed expanse of the Snoqualmie National Forest. It lies 24.8 miles west of Ellensburg, WA (from Ellensburg, WA: bearing 262°T), and is situated 32.5 miles northwest of Selah. High above the riverbed, the air holds a sharp, resinous chill, carrying the scent of damp bark and cold stone from the distant, serrated peaks of the Cascade Range that press against the western horizon. The terrain rises in steep, timbered inclines, offering a stark contrast to the nearby open expanse of Sawmill Flat, where the earth flattens into a quiet, grassy basin. Sunlight here behaves with a peculiar, fleeting intensity, catching the needles of the evergreens in a brief, golden flare before slipping behind the ridges to leave the valley in a long, bruised twilight.

Cliffdell persists as a quiet outpost defined by its proximity to the raw, untamed timberlands of the Naches Ranger District, a landscape that has long dictated the rhythm of local labor and transit. Life in Cliffdell moves in accordance with the seasonal migrations of visitors seeking the high-country solace of the Gold Creek Trail or the cooling, high-altitude waters of Bumping Lake. While the economy remains tethered to the forest and the slow, steady flow of travelers navigating the mountain passes, the true character of the locality is found in the stillness that settles between the roar of the river and the wind moving through the canopy. It is a place of enduring, quiet industry, where the history of the region remains written in the weathered wood of old cabins and the persistent, unhurried persistence of the river cutting through the mountain stone.
