How to Use This La Farge, Wisconsin Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for La Farge, 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 La Farge.
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.

ZIP code: 54639.La Farge occupies a deep, verdant crease in the landscape where the Kickapoo River carves a deliberate, serpentine path through the limestone bedrock. It lies 17.7 miles northwest of Richland, WI (from Richland, WI: bearing 311°T), and is situated 12.5 miles east of Viroqua. The air here holds a distinct coolness, heavy with the scent of damp earth and decaying leaves that collect in the low-lying shadows of Greene Hollow. To the east, the silhouette of Summit Ridge defines the horizon, its crest blunted by dense timber that turns a bruised purple as the sun retreats. Beyond the immediate banks of the river, the terrain rises in abrupt, jagged folds, creating a topography that feels resistant to the plow and indifferent to the encroaching reach of modern transit.
Economic life in La Farge remains tethered to the slow, seasonal pulse of the surrounding agricultural land, where small-scale dairy operations and organic cooperatives have replaced the timber mills of an earlier era. The community maintains a quiet resilience, anchored by a focus on sustainable land stewardship that draws visitors toward the quiet solitude of Rem-Camp Creek. While the distant shimmer of 0.225 Reservoir remains tucked away from the daily commute, its presence suggests the hidden water tables that feed the valley’s persistent moisture. Life in La Farge moves with the measured, persistent cadence of the current, favoring the long-standing traditions of harvest and the quiet labor required to sustain a livelihood in such an unyielding, beautiful geography.

About This La Farge Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of La Farge, Wisconsin. Coordinates: 43.574696, -90.640408. 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 La Farge includes the ZIP code (54639), telephone area code (715), county seat of Vernon County (Viroqua), and school district assignment (La Farge 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.
