How to Use This Tekoa, Washington Map

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

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.

Tekoa occupies a quiet expanse of the Palouse where the landscape unfolds in a series of sweeping, sun-bleached swells and deep, shadowed draws. It lies 29.4 miles south of Liberty Lake, WA (from Liberty Lake, WA: bearing 178°T), and is situated 34.3 miles south-southeast of Spokane. Hangman Creek carves a deliberate path through the earth here, its waters threading past the base of Tekoa Mountain, which looms three miles to the west as a steady, silent sentinel over the plains. Directly adjacent to the municipal limits, the Washington State Department of Natural Resources (WADNR) State Resource Management Area serves as a rugged buffer, preserving the native grasses that ripple under the persistent inland winds. To the north, the terrain rises toward the horizon, while the nearby Lovell Valley offers a subtle, fertile depression that catches the long, amber light of late afternoon.

Agriculture remains the primary pulse of Tekoa, with dryland wheat fields stretching toward the skyline in patterns dictated by the contour of the soil. This economy grew from the arrival of the railroads, which once turned the settlement into a bustling junction of commerce and iron, leaving behind a legacy of sturdy brick structures and a deliberate, measured pace of life. Though Chatcolet Lake lies sixteen miles away and the John Wayne Trail passes eight miles distant, the daily experience here is defined by the immediate rhythm of the harvest and the changing color of the stubble as the seasons turn. Residents move with the awareness of a place that is removed from the clamor of the coast, finding beauty in the stark, expansive clarity of the sky and the way the evening shadows stretch across the furrowed ground.

About This Tekoa Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Tekoa, Washington. Coordinates: 47.223231, -117.072121. 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 Tekoa includes the ZIP code (99033), telephone area code (509), county seat of Whitman County (Colfax), and school district assignment (Tekoa 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.
