How to Use This Curtis, Washington Map

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

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 Curtis, Washington

Curtis is a locality in Lewis County, Washington, United States. It is a small community with a population of 390. The population density is 22.0 people per km². Curtis is located at 46.5870°N, 123.1101°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP codes: 98532, 98538.

Curtis defines its edges through the steady, unassuming presence of Lake Creek, which carves a quiet path through the valley floor. It lies 11.6 miles southwest of Centralia, WA (from Centralia, WA: bearing 220°T), and is situated 8.7 miles southwest of Chehalis. The landscape around Curtis remains defined by low, timbered rises and the soft, persistent dampness that settles over the soil, muting the sharp greens of the ferns and the dark, rough bark of the conifers. To the west, the shadow of the Cascade Range looms as a distant, jagged promise of elevation, while the nearby terrain dips into the quiet hollows of Lost Valley. The atmosphere carries a heavy, lingering stillness, especially when the late afternoon light flattens against the meadows, turning the grasses into a pale, brushed silver that seems to hold the day in place long after the sun has slipped behind the ridgeline.

Agriculture and the legacy of timber management provide the pulse of life here, grounding Curtis in a cycle of labor that respects the slow growth of the surrounding woodland. Residents often find their way toward the Willapa Hills Trail, a corridor of gravel and history that invites a slower pace of travel through the dense, second-growth stands. While the Skookumchuck Reservoir sits far enough away to remain a destination rather than a daily feature, the local rhythm is dictated by the seasonal shift of the inland weather—the long, gray saturation of winter giving way to a brief, bright explosion of spring. People here move with a deliberate, measured caution, their lives shaped by the quiet gravity of a place that values the weight of the land over the noise of the modern world.

About This Curtis Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Curtis, Washington. Coordinates: 46.587048, -123.110134. 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 Curtis includes the ZIP code (98532, 98538), telephone area code (425), county seat of Lewis County (Chehalis), and school district assignment.

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.
