How to Use This White Mountain Lake, Arizona Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for White Mountain 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 White Mountain 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.

White Mountain Lake occupies a high-altitude plateau where the sun bleaches the grasses to a pale, brittle gold and the air thins into a crisp, crystalline clarity. It lies 6.8 miles north-northeast of Show Low, AZ (from Show Low, AZ: bearing 16°T), and is situated 9.6 miles south-southeast of Taylor. The landscape surrounding White Mountain Lake stretches wide and open, defined by the low, arid scrub and the distant, hazy silhouette of the Mogollon Rim rising against the southern horizon. Near the water’s edge, the ground gives way to the gentle, rocky depressions characteristic of the region, while the cooling influence of the Lakeside Ranger District forests lingers in the breeze that sweeps down from the higher elevations. During the height of the summer, massive, charcoal-bellied thunderheads gather over the heights, casting violet shadows that ripple across the plains before the dry earth drinks the sudden, brief release of rain.

Silver Creek carves a quiet, meandering path through the terrain just a mile from the center, acting as a perennial artery that sustains the local flora and the quiet rhythm of the residents. The area remains intimately connected to the expanse of State Trust Land, where the silence is broken only by the sharp call of a hawk or the rhythmic crunch of gravel beneath a passing vehicle. The history of the region is etched into the rugged character of the soil, with the Lone Pine Gravel Pit standing as a testament to the persistent industry that has long supported the local economy. Life in White Mountain Lake moves with a deliberate, unhurried pace, favoring the solitude of the high desert and the simple, enduring beauty of a landscape that demands little but offers a profound, expansive perspective to those who linger to watch the light change at dusk.

About This White Mountain Lake Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of White Mountain Lake, Arizona. Coordinates: 34.344046, -109.986811. 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 White Mountain Lake includes the ZIP code (85901, 85912), telephone area code (928), county seat of Navajo County (Holbrook), and school district assignment (Show Low 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.
