How to Use This Coaldale, Colorado Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Coaldale, Colorado. 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 to zoom in and out.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, 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).

Drag the map to pan to any area of Colorado or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Coaldale and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.

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. 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 Coaldale.

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.

Coaldale occupies a quiet stretch of land where the persistent, clear current of Hayden Creek carves a path through the valley floor. It lies 29.4 miles west of Cañon City, CO (from Cañon City, CO: bearing 259°T), and is situated 17.5 miles southeast of Salida. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain rises toward the rugged, distant silhouettes of the Rocky Mountains, which loom on the horizon like jagged teeth against the high-altitude sky. The air here remains remarkably dry and thin, carrying the scent of pine and sun-warmed earth across the expanse. To the north, the terrain folds into the quiet depths of Cedar Springs Gulch, while the protected waters of Arkansas River Segment 3 wind through the landscape, offering a sanctuary for local wildlife that moves undisturbed by the encroaching pace of the modern world. Coaldale retains the weathered, pragmatic spirit of its early years, built upon a foundation of resource extraction that once defined the regional economy. While the heavy industry of the past has softened, the local character remains tethered to the land, shaped by the seasonal shifts that turn the brush to gold each September. Travelers often pass through on their way to the Rainbow Trail, seeking the solitude of the high country, yet the daily rhythm of Coaldale persists in a slower, steadier cadence. Residents look toward the distant peaks for weather cues, cognizant that snow may linger in the high passes even as the summer sun blazes down upon the valley, keeping the memory of the frontier alive in the simple, enduring architecture of the homesteads.

About This Coaldale Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Coaldale, Colorado — switch between views using the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. Coordinates: 38.365553, -105.757784. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service, with current observations and a 7-day forecast also powered by Open-Meteo. Real-time local news and world news feeds keep the page current, while a Wikipedia summary or an editorially written description provides background on Coaldale and Fremont County.

Detailed location data for Coaldale includes the ZIP code (81222), telephone area code (719), county seat of Fremont County (Cañon City), and school district assignment (Fremont RE-3). These are among the most commonly searched location details for any US city or town.

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 — ensuring the correct Coaldale is identified even where the name is shared across multiple counties or states. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
