Explore Greenlee, Arizona, 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 Greenlee, Arizona. 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 Arizona 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 Greenlee.
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.

Greenlee occupies a rugged expanse of high-desert terrain where the golden light of dusk lingers long against the jagged silhouette of Table Top. It lies 36.6 miles northeast of Graham, AZ (from Graham, AZ: bearing 46°T), and is situated 13.1 miles north of Clifton. The ground in Greenlee falls within the sprawling boundaries of the Apache National Forest, creating a landscape defined by deep silence and the scent of dry pine. A short distance away, the waters of Pigeon Creek carve a narrow path through the dusty earth, while the gentle cascade of Sardine Falls provides a rare, cool respite from the heat. Beyond the immediate vicinity, the terrain opens into the quiet basin of Buck Park, where the horizon stretches toward an infinite sky. Walking along the H L Canyon Eleven Trail, one senses the profound stillness that settles over the land as the sun dips below the western ridges.
Greenlee grew from the labor of those who sought to uncover the hidden wealth buried deep within the earth. The local economy remains tethered to the extraction of resources, a pursuit that has shaped the rhythm of daily life for generations. Much of the region’s stability relies on the careful management of the nearby Clifton Ranger District, which balances the needs of industry with the preservation of the land. When the work shifts end, the heavy stillness of the desert returns, interrupted only by the occasional sound of machinery or the shifting of loose stone. Those who dwell in Greenlee recognize that the prosperity of the region is etched in the mineral-rich soil and the endurance of its people. Even the Tailings Water Reclamation Reservoir serves as a quiet reminder of the intersection between human necessity and the stark, demanding environment.
Greenlee fosters a culture of independence, where the character of the people is as resilient and weathered as the sandstone walls surrounding them. Life here moves with a deliberate pace, dictated by the intense heat of the afternoons and the cool, sharp clarity of the nights. While the region is largely defined by its isolation, it retains a distinct identity born from the shared experience of living in a remote wilderness. Residents often gather to observe the changing seasons, finding beauty in the way monsoon thunderheads gather over the high country to break the long, dry spells. The area remains a place where the grandeur of the landscape eclipses the fame of any single individual, ensuring that the focus stays on the land itself. Visitors who find their way to Greenlee often leave with a deeper appreciation for the quiet, unadorned truth of a life lived close to the elements.

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.
