Explore Cameron, West Virginia, 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 Cameron, West Virginia. 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 West Virginia 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 Cameron.
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.

Cameron emerges from the earth as a series of steep, green-shouldered inclines where the persistent Grave Creek carves a winding path through the limestone bedrock. It lies 18.3 miles south-southeast of Wheeling, WV (from Wheeling, WV: bearing 153°T), and is situated 11.4 miles southeast of Moundsville. The landscape is dominated by the narrow, shaded depths of Ramp Hollow, which keeps the morning light in a long, cool suspension before it finally spills over the ridge-tops. High above the valley floor, the terrain remains a dense, tangled tapestry of Appalachian hardwood, where the air holds a permanent, damp scent of decaying leaves and mineral-rich soil. During the amber hours of autumn, the foliage glows with a fierce, russet intensity, casting a heavy, golden shade across the quiet slopes that rise toward the distant Appalachian Mountains.
Cameron maintains a quiet resilience born from a long, complex history of extraction and the slow, rhythmic labor of the coal industry. The economic pulse of the region has shifted over the decades, yet the influence of the nearby Cecil H. Underwood Wildlife Management Area provides a persistent, wild counterpoint to the industrial legacy that once defined these narrow corridors. Residents move with a deliberate, measured pace, acknowledging the way the geography dictates the flow of commerce and daily life along the creek beds. Even as modern energy production finds new footing in the deeper strata of the soil, the people remain tethered to the fundamental, rugged character of the land, finding a somber beauty in the way the shadows lengthen across the valley at the end of every work day.

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.
