Explore Lone Rock, 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 Lone Rock, 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 Lone Rock.
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.

Lone Rock sits upon the flat, sandy expanse of the valley floor, where the soil holds the memory of ancient glacial meltwater and the persistent, quiet shifts of the earth. It lies 17.8 miles south-southeast of Richland, WI (from Richland, WI: bearing 150°T), and is situated 17.8 miles north-northwest of Iowa. The Wisconsin River flows a single mile to the south, its dark, braided channels cutting through the alluvial plain with a deliberate, slow-moving purpose that dictates the mood of the surrounding fields. Beyond the immediate lowlands, the jagged silhouettes of Riverview Ridge rise in the distance, providing a stark contrast to the sprawling, open meadows that define the horizon. Bakkens Pond remains a still, reflective eye in the landscape two miles away, undisturbed by the modern velocity of the world, while the sprawling Lower Wisconsin State Riverway encompasses the area, preserving the wild, untamed character of the riparian banks.
Agriculture has long defined the pulse of Lone Rock, with the rhythm of the seasons etched into the daily labor of those who work the black, fertile loam and the neighboring dairy pastures. The influence of early settlers remains visible in the sturdy, unadorned architecture that dots the landscape, reflecting a heritage of resilience and practical craft. Life here moves with a measured pace, often punctuated by the quietude of Penn Hollow or the sudden, sharp clarity of light that hits the valley during the transition between autumn and winter. Whether it is the gathering of neighbors at the end of a long work week or the slow transformation of the cornfields as they wither into bronze, Lone Rock maintains an understated dignity, grounded by the steady, unyielding presence of the land itself.

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.
