How to Use This Jakes Corner, Arizona Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Jakes Corner, 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 Jakes Corner.

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.

Jakes Corner sits at the rugged intersection of high desert and scrubland, where the persistent flow of Hardt Creek carves a thin, life-giving ribbon through the arid earth. It lies 13.2 miles west-southwest of Highley, AZ (from Highley, AZ: bearing 258°T), and is situated 15.2 miles south of Payson. The landscape is defined by the stark, sun-bleached expanse of the Tonto National Forest, where the silence of the terrain is broken only by the dry rustle of brush and the occasional shifting of dust in the heat. To the north, the distant blue silhouette of the Mogollon Rim anchors the horizon, while the jagged, sun-drenched walls of Brady Canyon loom just a short distance away. The light here at dusk is singular, turning the parched ground a deep, bruised violet that seems to hold the day’s heat long after the sun has slipped behind the ridges.

Jakes Corner functions as a solitary waypoint for those traversing the vast, open stretches of the interior, serving as a quiet node of commerce and rest for the modern traveler. The local economy remains tethered to the rhythm of the road, supporting those who venture toward the recreation offered by the nearby Haufer Research Natural Area or the expansive waters of Bartlett Reservoir. For the adventurous, the Del Shay Trail provides a path into the deeper, quieter reaches of the wilderness, inviting a measured pace that matches the slow, deliberate movement of the seasons. Life in Jakes Corner is marked by the heavy, building presence of monsoon thunderheads, which gather with a solemn, electric weight over the landscape, offering a brief, intense reprieve to the thirsty soil.
