How to Use This Loon Lake, Washington Map

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

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.

Loon Lake sustains a quiet existence in a bowl of glacial sediment, defined by the stillness of its namesake water and the surrounding thickets of ponderosa pine. It lies 28.9 miles north of Airway Heights, WA (from Airway Heights, WA: bearing 356°T), and is situated 17.3 miles north of Suncrest. The air here holds a crisp, resinous quality, thinning slightly as the land rises toward the jagged silhouette of the Five Sisters visible on the distant horizon. Beyond the immediate shoreline, the terrain shifts into the quiet expanse of Rustler's Gulch, where the earth gives way to shadowed draws and open meadows. Sheep Creek slips through the nearby landscape with a steady, unassuming purpose, marking the transition between the dense timber stands and the broader, flatter stretches of the regional interior.

Development around Loon Lake has long been shaped by the rhythms of seasonal migration, shifting from early timber harvests to the quiet persistence of a recreational hub. The proximity of Ahren Meadows provides a seasonal contrast to the wooded slopes, offering a subtle variation in the grasses that turn to gold under the late summer sun. Life in Loon Lake remains tied to the slow turn of the year, where the local economy reflects a heritage of land stewardship and the steady, unadorned work of those who maintain the surrounding timberlands. Even as the modern world encroaches, the prevailing character of the land remains fixed in the quietude of its inland geography, far removed from the clamor of more crowded transit corridors.

About This Loon Lake Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Loon Lake, Washington. Coordinates: 48.070402, -117.625702. 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 Loon Lake includes the ZIP code (99148), telephone area code (509), county seat of Stevens County (Colville), and school district assignment (Loon Lake School District).

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.
