How to Use This Hendricks, West Virginia Map

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

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.

Hendricks occupies a narrow, shadowed basin where the Blackwater River carves a restless path through the dense, verdant expanse of the Monongahela National Forest. It lies 39.4 miles southeast of Fairmont, WV (from Fairmont, WV: bearing 136°T), and is situated 15.5 miles northeast of Elkins. The land rises sharply from the riverbank, climbing toward the jagged, distant silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains that define the far horizon. Sunlight here is brief and slanted, catching the high ridges in the early morning before retreating into the deep, cooling gloom of Fishing Trough Hollow. The air carries the damp, iron-scented weight of constant water and deep timber, a stillness broken only by the persistent, rushing pulse of the river as it pulls through the dark stones.

Hendricks grew from the relentless ambition of the timber era, when the surrounding woods fed the mills that once defined the local economy. Today, the echoes of those iron-wheeled locomotives have faded into the quietude of a place defined more by the patient regrowth of hardwoods than the scramble of industry. A traveler might seek out the challenging ascent of the Bennet Rock Trail or venture further toward the thundering descent of Blackwater Falls, yet the true character of Hendricks remains in its stubborn, quiet endurance against the encroaching wild. Life here moves in accordance with the turning seasons and the slow, inevitable drift of the forest, far removed from the frantic pace of the lowlands.
