How to Use This Dutton, Alabama Map

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

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.

Dutton exists as a quiet accumulation of red-clay soil and hardwood canopy, where the horizon is defined by the subtle, persistent rise of Zion Hill eight miles to the west. It lies 7.9 miles east-southeast of Scottsboro, AL (from Scottsboro, AL: bearing 122°T), and is situated 9.0 miles north-northwest of Rainsville. The landscape surrounding Dutton leans toward the slow drainage of the Tennessee River valley, where the moisture of the humid air clings to the longleaf pines and settles into the damp floor of John Martin Hollow. Only three miles away, the expansive surface of Guntersville Lake reflects the heavy, bruised purples of an approaching storm, while the more intimate, narrow passage of Kirby Creek traces a path just one mile from the center of the settlement. The light here at dusk possesses a singular, amber clarity that seems to sharpen the edges of the barns and silos, stripping away the haze of the afternoon to reveal the raw, unadorned geometry of the fields.

Agriculture remains the primary pulse of the local economy, a legacy of labor that has long defined the character of Dutton and its inhabitants. The presence of State-owned Submerged Lands nearby serves as a quiet reminder of the regional commitment to preserving the riparian environments that dictate the rhythm of life in this inland pocket of the state. History in Dutton is not marked by grand monuments, but by the slow, deliberate transition of the seasons and the enduring work of those who cultivate the heavy earth. The pace of the day moves in accordance with the demands of the soil and the local weather, creating a social fabric that values the steady, repetitive tasks of the harvest over the frantic urgency of larger, more industrial centers.

About This Dutton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Dutton, Alabama. Coordinates: 34.610918, -85.91692. 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 Dutton includes the ZIP code (35744), telephone area code (256), county seat of Jackson County (Scottsboro), and school district assignment (Jackson County 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.
