Explore Coon Valley, Wisconsin, 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 Coon Valley, Wisconsin. 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 Wisconsin 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 Coon Valley.
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.

Coon Valley emerges from the ancient, unglaciated folds of the Driftless region where the landscape refuses to flatten, favoring steep limestone bluffs and deep, sheltered drainages. It lies 13.2 miles east-southeast of La Crosse, WI (from La Crosse, WI: bearing 121°T), and is situated 8.7 miles east-southeast of Shelby. Coon Creek carves a persistent path through the center of the valley, its cold waters sustaining the trout that draw patient anglers to the nearby Coon Creek Fishery Area. To the east, the silhouette of South Ridge defines the skyline, acting as a natural bulwark against the prevailing winds that sweep across the open fields. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain rises sharply into the shadowed incline of Rundahl Coulee, where the morning light lingers in long, thin ribbons of gold before finally touching the valley floor.
Settlers of Scandinavian descent arrived here to clear the dense hardwoods and establish a life rooted in the soil, creating an economy that remains tethered to the rhythmic cycles of dairy farming and land stewardship. The legacy of conservation is felt in every managed pasture and protected stream, a quiet acknowledgment of the fragility of this uneven terrain. Life in Coon Valley follows the steady pace of the seasons, marked by the transformation of the hills from deep emerald to the muted, rusted tones of late autumn. Those who live here often find themselves traveling the narrow, winding roads toward the distant Coulee State Experimental Forest or the quiet waters of Luckasons Pond 3, moving through a geography that demands a deliberate, grounded way of being.

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.
