Explore Valleyford, 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 Valleyford, 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 Valleyford.
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.

Valleyford holds a quiet vigil over a landscape defined by the slow, deliberate work of wind and dry soil. It lies 8.9 miles south-southwest of Veradale, WA (from Veradale, WA: bearing 193°T), and is situated 9.8 miles south of Spokane Valley. The earth here rises in broad, sun-bleached swells that catch the late afternoon light, casting long shadows that stretch toward the distant silhouette of Red Hog. California Creek carves a thin, verdant ribbon through the parched fields, its presence marked by the silver flash of willows that break the monotony of the plateau. To the west, the land deepens into the rugged incline of Courtney Canyon, where the air grows cooler and the silence of the high plains is replaced by the rustle of dry brush. The expansive sky above Valleyford often turns a bruised, twilight gray, pressing down upon the horizon with an intensity that makes the vast, open acreage feel both infinite and intimate.
Agriculture anchors the rhythm of Valleyford, where the seasonal labor of tilling and harvest dictates the pulse of the days. Generations have worked this soil, leaving behind a legacy of weathered barns and fences that delineate the boundaries of private, productive land. A short drive away, the Washington State Department of Natural Resources (WADNR) State Resource Management Area offers a tract of wilder terrain, providing a stark contrast to the cultivated grids of the surrounding farms. While the shimmering surface of Dosser Reservoir remains a singular, distant point of stillness in the landscape, the daily life of the residents remains tethered to the steady, cyclical demands of the inland plains. There is a profound endurance in the way Valleyford persists, a place where the economy is measured in bushels and the character of the locality is forged in the resilient, unyielding grit of the high desert fringe.

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.
