Explore Quinault, 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 Quinault, 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 Quinault.
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.

Quinault reveals itself through the persistent, melodic rush of Falls Creek as it carves a path through the dense, rain-shadowed verdancy of the Olympic National Forest. It lies 30.5 miles west of Mason, WA (from Mason, WA: bearing 276°T), and is situated 33.3 miles north-northwest of Grays Harbor. The landscape is defined by the deep, glacial bowl of Lake Quinault, a basin where the air holds a permanent, heavy dampness that clings to the moss-covered cedar and hemlock. To the east, the jagged, snow-dusted silhouettes of the Olympic Mountains rise like a serrated wall against the horizon, anchoring the topography. Beyond the immediate reach of the water, the terrain lifts toward the rugged, shadowed depths of Wright Canyon, where the light at dusk softens into a muted, silver-gray hue that seems to suspend the forest in a state of perpetual, quiet anticipation.
Quinault remains a place defined by the slow, deliberate extraction of timber and the stewardship of the vast federal woodlands that surround it. The local economy is tied to the rhythms of the Olympic National Forest, where the labor of the woodsman has transitioned into a quiet focus on ecological preservation and the seasonal influx of those seeking the stillness of the deep interior. History here is marked by the enduring presence of the forest, which dictates the pace of life and limits the reach of modern development to narrow, winding corridors. Those who wander further afield may find their way to the Higley Trail, a path that offers a rare, intimate perspective on the immense scale of the old-growth canopy. Life in Quinault is measured not by the clock, but by the slow, seasonal shifts in the foliage and the steady, unyielding flow of the inland waters.

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.
