How to Use This Wheatfields, Arizona Map

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

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.

Wheatfields emerges from the high, arid plains as a quiet expanse of earth where the light seems to linger longer against the pale, dry grasses. It lies 53.6 miles north-northwest of Gallup, NM (from Gallup, NM: bearing 336°T), and is situated 24.3 miles east-northeast of Chinle. The character of the land is defined by a vast, openness that stretches toward the horizon, punctuated only by the rugged silhouette of Tsaile Butte rising three miles away. A steady, cooling breeze often travels across the landscape, carrying the scent of sagebrush and the fine, mineral dust of the basin. During the golden hour, the sun catches the edges of the terrain, casting long, sharp shadows that emphasize the subtle folds of the earth and the deep, silent stillness that defines the days here.

Wheatfields Creek meanders through this landscape just one mile away, serving as a vital thread of moisture that has historically sustained the local agricultural traditions of the Navajo people. The economy remains rooted in this relationship with the soil, with small-scale farming and livestock grazing persisting as the primary rhythms of the day. Life in Wheatfields maintains a deliberate, measured pace, influenced by the proximity of Upper Wheatfields three miles distant and the reflective, calm waters of Tsaile Lake five miles to the north. These features anchor the daily experience of the residents, creating a space where the ancient patterns of the land continue to dictate the flow of modern life.

About This Wheatfields Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Wheatfields, Arizona. Coordinates: 33.470937, -110.816135. 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 Wheatfields includes the ZIP code (86556, 85501), telephone area code (928, 480), county seat of Apache County (St. Johns), and school district assignment (Globe Unified 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.
