Explore Pea Ridge, 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 Pea Ridge, 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 Pea Ridge.
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.

Pea Ridge anchors a landscape defined by the steady, persistent movement of the Guyandotte River as it carves through the earth. It lies 6.8 miles east of Huntington, WV (from Huntington, WV: bearing 93°T), and is situated 1.4 miles west-northwest of Barboursville. The terrain surrounding Pea Ridge unfolds in a series of dense, hardwood-covered elevations that rise toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains on the horizon. To the north, the gentle depression of Cow Hollow provides a natural corridor for the cooling evening air to settle against the slopes. Residents often walk the trails of Barboursville Park, where the canopy creates a fractured light that shifts with the passing of the sun. Even the proximity of Sky Lake, seven miles away, offers a quiet reprieve where the water mirrors the deep, unbroken green of the regional timberland.
Pea Ridge maintains a character shaped by the legacy of industry and the pragmatic spirit of those who settled these rugged hollows. The local economy has long drawn its strength from the interplay between the extraction of natural resources and a modest, steady commitment to regional commerce. Historically, the lives of those in Pea Ridge were tied to the rhythmic demands of the coal-bearing strata that define much of the state’s economic identity. Small-scale manufacturing and service trades now fill the spaces where older, heavier industries once dictated the pace of the calendar. Families here value a quiet self-reliance, finding stability in the persistent, unadorned work that sustains the neighborhood through changing seasons.
Cultural life in Pea Ridge reflects a deep-seated pride in regional traditions, where the sound of mountain music occasionally rises above the hum of daily movement. Landmarks are often modest, marked by the simple, enduring architecture of mid-century dwellings and the quietude of communal spaces. While the area does not claim global celebrities, it remains firmly rooted in the stories of individuals who embody the resilience of the Appalachian spirit. Community events in Pea Ridge often center on the local park, drawing neighbors together to share in the simple ritual of a seasonal gathering. Life here proceeds without fanfare, guided by a sense of place that honors the quiet beauty of the woods and the enduring flow of the nearby water.

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.
