How to Use This Jacob Lake, Arizona Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Jacob Lake, 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 Jacob Lake.

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.

Jacob Lake commands a high, timbered plateau where the air grows thin and crisp, carrying the scent of pine needles and dry earth. It lies 67.3 miles east-southeast of Hurricane, UT (from Hurricane, UT: bearing 118°T), and is situated 28.8 miles southeast of Kanab. The landscape surrounding Jacob Lake unfolds in quiet, undulating ridges, punctuated by the deep, shadowed depression of Billy Sink just a mile away, where the ground gives way to a sudden, bowl-like silence. To the north and south, the terrain slopes into a rugged wilderness that feels ancient and undisturbed, far removed from the bustle of the lowlands. The light here at dusk possesses a peculiar, amber weight, casting long, violet shadows across the forest floor that seem to deepen the stillness of the woods.

History at Jacob Lake remains tethered to the travelers and loggers who once navigated these high routes, establishing a small, enduring outpost that serves as a gateway to the vast, protected expanses of the Grand Canyon Preserve National Game Refuge. The local economy persists as a modest waypoint for those venturing toward the wilder reaches of the North Kaibab Ranger District, where the timber industry and the needs of the passing wanderer have long dictated the rhythm of daily labor. While the waters of the distant Bear Lake remain far beyond the horizon and the erratic currents of House Rock Wash lie ten miles off, the life of the area is defined by its resilience in a high-altitude climate. Travelers often pause here to mark the transition between the rolling, forested heights and the stark, distant silhouette of Little Mountain, finding in the simple commerce of the roadside a quiet respite against the immense, silent scale of the surrounding plateau.
