Explore Hazel Green, 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 Hazel Green, 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 Hazel Green.
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.

Hazel Green emerges from the unglaciated terrain of the Driftless Area, where the land refuses to flatten into the predictable plains of the Midwest. It lies 14.1 miles south of Platteville, WI (from Platteville, WI: bearing 171°T), and is situated 8.0 miles north of Galena. The earth here is defined by sudden ridges and deep, secret creases, with the landscape dipping into the quietude of Millbrig Hollow only a few miles away. Scrabble Branch carves a narrow, persistent path through the limestone-heavy soil, its water reflecting the pale, early light that settles over the fields long before the sun clears the distant horizon. At the edge of the settlement, the Hardscrabble Prairie State Natural Area preserves the native grasses that once dominated this expanse, their stalks swaying in a rhythm dictated by the shifting winds that sweep down from the north. Even on the clearest days, the Dubuque Hills remain a faint, serrated line against the sky, serving as a silent boundary to the west.
Hazel Green preserves a character carved from the intersection of lead mining history and the persistent, quiet labor of regional agriculture. The economy has long turned on the rhythm of the seasons, shifting from the extraction of ore that defined the early era to the steady, methodical practice of dairy farming and local trade. Residents move through their days with an awareness of the changing color of the corn and the sudden, sharp chill that arrives when the air moves across the open fields. While the stillness of the countryside dominates, the influence of regional traditions remains, visible in the social rituals that gather neighbors together when the work week concludes. Though Hires Lake lies a brief distance away, the spirit of the place stays tethered to the solid, unyielding ground and the long, slow shadows that stretch across the meadows as the evening deepens.

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.
