How to Use This Fobes Hill, Washington Map

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

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 Fobes Hill, Washington

Fobes Hill is a locality in Snohomish County, Washington, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,628. The population density is 218.0 people per km². Fobes Hill is located at 47.9392°N, 122.1341°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 98290.

Fobes Hill rises from the earth as a long, verdant spine, its slopes draped in a dense, moisture-heavy forest that captures the persistent gray light of the Pacific Northwest. It lies 2.7 miles north-northwest of Snohomish, WA (from Snohomish, WA: bearing 338°T), and is situated 7.6 miles south-southeast of Marysville. From the higher ridges, the air carries a faint, briny suggestion of Port Gardner five miles to the west, while the horizon is anchored by the jagged, distant silhouettes of the Cascade Range. Below the crest, the land softens into the basin of Ebey Slough, where the water moves with a slow, deliberate gravity, and the nearby presence of Blackmans Lake provides a mirror for the towering hemlock and fir. The Skagit-Snoqualmie Wildlife Area Complex serves as a quiet sanctuary for the wilder residents of the slope, maintaining a corridor of stillness that contrasts with the encroaching hum of the modern world.

Industry in Fobes Hill has evolved from the early clearing of timber into a quiet, residential rhythm that favors the preservation of the surrounding woods over the sprawl of commerce. The proximity to Ebey Island and the intricate network of tidal waterways reminds every traveler that the economy here has always been tethered to the movement of water and the changing of the tides. Residents often find their days marked by the atmospheric shift from the morning fog, which clings to the trees like damp wool, to the clearer, sharp-edged evenings that settle over the landscape. Life in Fobes Hill remains dictated by the land itself, where the heavy saturation of the soil and the seasonal migration of birds define the passage of time more accurately than any clock.
