Explore Glenwood, 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 Glenwood, 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 Glenwood.
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.

Glenwood sits upon a broad expanse of high, quiet earth where the terrain stretches toward the horizon in shades of tawny gold and muted sage. It lies 14.4 miles north-northwest of Pullman, WA (from Pullman, WA: bearing 341°T), and is situated 5.2 miles northeast of Colfax. Clear Creek cuts a persistent, winding path through the landscape, its cool waters offering a steady pulse to the surrounding plains and low, grassy rises. Beyond the immediate fields, the silhouette of Kamiak Butte breaks the skyline seven miles distant, acting as a fixed landmark against the expansive, cloud-swept sky. The air here holds a crisp, thin quality, cooling rapidly as the sun dips behind the distant ridges and leaves the grasses shivering in the evening light. Two miles away, the Washington State Department of Natural Resources (WADNR) State Resource Management Area preserves the native character of the soil, maintaining a wild buffer that keeps the encroaching reach of development at a measured distance.
Glenwood draws its endurance from the rhythms of the land, where the local economy remains tethered to the cycles of harvest and the patient stewardship of the fields. Families have built their lives in the shadow of Eden Valley, three miles off, favoring a life defined by the slow turn of seasons rather than the frantic pace of distant urban centers. Residents who seek a deeper connection to the terrain often walk the Whitman County Nature Trail, a path six miles away that invites a quiet observation of the regional flora. The cultural character of Glenwood is marked by a deliberate solitude, a place where the stillness is not an absence of life, but a density of it, found in the hard work of the plains and the unadorned beauty of a landscape that demands little and provides everything for those who know how to watch it grow.

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.
