Explore Teec Nos Pos, 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 Teec Nos Pos, 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 Teec Nos Pos.
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.

Teec Nos Pos unfolds across a high, arid expanse where the earth wears the color of dried clay and ancient, sun-baked shale. It lies 49.8 miles west-northwest of Farmington, NM (from Farmington, NM: bearing 286°T), and is situated 23.9 miles west-northwest of Shiprock. The Tohache Wash carves a shallow, ephemeral scar through the dusty plains, its bed remaining parched and silent for most of the year until sudden summer rains turn the channel into a brief, churning vein of silt. To the horizon, the landscape flattens into an immense stage of scrub and bunchgrass, punctuated seven miles away by the blunt, solitary rise of Cow Butte. The light here possesses a peculiar, crystalline intensity, stripping away shadow at midday and casting long, bruised purples across the ground as the sun drops behind the distant, jagged silhouettes of far-off ranges.
Teec Nos Pos remains a place of quiet endurance, deeply rooted in the traditions of the Navajo Nation where the rhythm of life aligns with the slow, deliberate turn of the seasons. The local economy relies on a mixture of small-scale livestock grazing and the persistent, pragmatic trade that sustains life in the high desert. While Teec Nos Pos Canyon lies four miles to the south, marking the terrain with deeper geological complexity, the settlement itself exists as a point of convergence for those navigating the vast, windswept reaches of the Four Corners region. The air carries the scent of sage and dry heat, a stillness that feels less like emptiness and more like a profound, attentive patience held by the land itself.

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.
