How to Use This Cunard, West Virginia Map

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

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.

Cunard anchors itself to the rugged, steep-walled terrain where the Coal Run traces a restless path through the earth. It lies 17.3 miles north-northeast of Beckley, WV (from Beckley, WV: bearing 28°T), and is situated 6.2 miles east-northeast of Oak Hill. The air here holds a heavy, damp stillness, common to the deep hollows that characterize this section of the New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. High above the valley floor, the landscape rises in dense, tangled hardwoods that climb toward the horizon, where the distant Appalachian Mountains blur into a pale, bruised violet against the sky. Sunlight often struggles to reach the bottom of the ravines, leaving the ground in a permanent state of cool, mossy shadow that smells of damp slate and decaying leaves.

Cunard bears the deep, quiet weight of a coal-camp memory, a history etched into the very soil that once fueled the industrial pulse of the region. The economy has long since shifted away from the intensive extraction of the earth’s seams, leaving behind the hushed remains of tipples and the remnants of rail beds that once moved the black stone toward the world. A few miles toward Chestnut Flat, the land opens slightly, yet the presence of the Coal Run remains the primary architect of the local geography. Life here moves with the deliberate, measured pace of those who live in the shadow of steep slopes, where the primary rhythm is dictated by the changing canopy and the persistent, low-frequency hum of the wilderness reclaiming the paths of the past.
