How to Use This Marcus, Washington Map

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

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.

Marcus commands a long, quiet stretch of the Columbia River where the water moves with a heavy, deliberate strength through the arid basin. It lies 37.8 miles west-northwest of Pend Oreille, WA (from Pend Oreille, WA: bearing 295°T), and is situated 11.0 miles northwest of Colville. The landscape here is defined by high, sun-bleached slopes that rise toward the rugged silhouette of Peach Crest, casting long, sharp shadows across the valley floor as the afternoon heat begins to wane. Within the expanse of the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area, the land meets the deep, cooling body of Franklin D Roosevelt Lake, an immense reservoir that mirrors the expansive sky and the stark, earthen textures of the surrounding plateaus. The air in Marcus often carries the scent of dry sagebrush and pine, a clean, sharp fragrance that lingers long after the sun has dipped behind the jagged horizon.

History clings to the banks of the Columbia River in Marcus, where the remnants of earlier settlement patterns are still visible beneath the quiet progress of modern life. Once a bustling center of rail transit and timber, the economy has shifted to reflect the seasonal rhythms of the outdoors and the vast, open spaces that define this part of the state. Travelers passing through may find the nearby rush of Meyers Falls a stark contrast to the slow, steady current of the reservoir, while the land between here and Blue Gulch remains a testament to the endurance of those who work the inland soil. Life in Marcus moves with the deliberate pace of the water, a place where the stillness of the high desert creates a singular, grounded sense of belonging for those who call the riverbanks home.

About This Marcus Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Marcus, Washington. Coordinates: 48.663236, -118.068323. 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 Marcus includes the ZIP code (99151, 99141), telephone area code (509), county seat of Stevens County (Colville), and school district assignment (Kettle Falls 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.
