Explore Northport, 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 Northport, 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 Northport.
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.

Northport anchors a rugged reach of the upper Columbia River, where the water moves with a heavy, deliberate coldness through a landscape of steep, timbered inclines. It lies 39.4 miles north-northwest of Pend Oreille, WA (from Pend Oreille, WA: bearing 328°T), and is situated 26.1 miles north-northeast of Colville. Silver Crown Mountain looms to the south, casting long, bruised shadows that stretch toward the water’s edge as the afternoon light thins into a pale, metallic gray. Beyond the riverbanks, the terrain rises into the dry, broken topography of Becker Flat, a place where the wind carries the scent of sun-baked pine and parched earth. The Pacific Northwest National Scenic Trail traverses this high, quiet corridor, threading through the brush and basalt where the only movement is the slow drift of clouds caught against the jagged horizon.
Northport exists in the quiet aftermath of a frontier era defined by the pull of mineral wealth and the raw ambition of early industry. The local rhythm remains tethered to the slow pulse of the Columbia River, a waterway that once served as the primary artery for those seeking fortune in the surrounding hills. Franklin D Roosevelt Lake occupies the expansive basin nearby, its still, deep waters reflecting the vast, empty sky and the hushed gravity of a region that has long since traded the clamor of extraction for a lean, deliberate solitude. Life here is measured by the changing seasons and the persistent, unyielding geography, where the remnants of a harder, more industrious age are slowly being reclaimed by the encroaching timber and the persistent, scouring wind.

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.
