Explore Gleed, Washington, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Gleed, 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 Gleed.
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.

Gleed occupies a quiet stretch of high-desert benchland where the air holds the dry, sharp scent of sun-baked earth and distant sage. It lies 6.4 miles northwest of Yakima, WA (from Yakima, WA: bearing 307°T), and is situated 9.0 miles west-northwest of Terrace Heights. The landscape spreads out in a patchwork of orchard rows and open fields, defined by the irrigation ditches that pulse like veins through the Lower Naches Valley. To the west, the jagged, snow-dusted silhouette of the Cascade Range looms against the sky, a distant sentinel that marks the transition from the damp, timbered world beyond the peaks to this arid, golden expanse. Near the center of the territory, the Lower Naches Community Park serves as a modest commons where the wind carries the dust of the valley floor, while the nearby Buckskin Slough traces a slow, meandering path through the brush, its waters marking the subtle dip of the terrain.
Gleed carries the weight of a working history built on the stubborn persistence of fruit cultivation, where the economy remains tethered to the harvest cycles of apples and pears. The pace of life here is dictated by the turning of the seasons, a steady rhythm of pruning, thinning, and picking that has defined the character of the families who settled these irrigation-fed plains. While Lake Myron lies a few miles away, offering a still, reflecting glass for the shifting light of dusk, the true identity of Gleed is found in the corrugated metal of packing sheds and the long, straight lines of irrigation pipe. It is a place of quiet industry, where the gray-gold light of late afternoon illuminates the rows of trees, and the collective memory of the region is written in the seasonal labor that keeps the soil productive despite the persistent, rain-shadowed thirst of the land.

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.
