How to Use This Embarrass, Wisconsin Map

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

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.

Embarrass occupies a quiet reach of land where the persistent, winding Embarrass River carves its path through the low-lying terrain of the Wisconsin interior. It lies 20.5 miles northwest of Outagamie, WI (from Outagamie, WI: bearing 313°T), and is situated 9.4 miles south-southwest of Shawano. The air here holds a crisp, heavy clarity, particularly in the mornings when the mist rises from Wagner Lake, a mile distant, to cling to the damp grasses of the fields. Beyond the immediate banks of the river, the landscape stretches into a mosaic of dense woodlands and open agricultural plots, their contours softened by the slow passage of seasons. To the south, the terrain invites a sense of solitude, leading toward the expansive greenery of the Lower Wolf River Bottomlands Natural Resource Area, where the pulse of the earth feels slower and more deliberate.

Embarrass bears the quiet marks of a logging and agricultural heritage, rooted in the industrious spirit of settlers who saw promise in the timber and the fertile soil. The local economy maintains a steady, modest cadence, tethered to the rhythms of the surrounding farms and the enduring traditions of the North Woods. Life in Embarrass moves with an intentional gravity, shaped by the cyclical demands of the harvest and the communal warmth of the supper-club culture that endures after the sun dips below the horizon. On quiet evenings, the low light catches the grain of the weathered buildings, revealing a place that values the weight of its own history over the fleeting pace of the modern world.

About This Embarrass Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Embarrass, Wisconsin. Coordinates: 44.665536, -88.707323. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Embarrass includes the ZIP code (54933, 54929), telephone area code (715), county seat of Waupaca County (Waupaca), and school district assignment (Clintonville School District).

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.
