How to Use This Lake Roberts Heights, New Mexico Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lake Roberts Heights, New Mexico. 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 New Mexico 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 Lake Roberts Heights.
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.

Lake Roberts Heights is located at 33.0271°N, 108.1381°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. ZIP code: 88049.Lake Roberts Heights occupies a high-altitude expanse where the rugged topography of the Gila National Forest defines the very horizon. It lies 56.9 miles north-northwest of Deming, NM (from Deming, NM: bearing 337°T), and is situated 19.6 miles north-northeast of Silver City. Sapillo Creek carves a persistent path through the terrain, its moisture sustaining the hardy vegetation that clings to the rugged slopes of Hill Canyon. The air here holds a crisp, thin clarity that sharpens the edges of every pine needle and limestone outcrop, particularly as the sun begins its descent behind the distant silhouette of Middle Mountain. This landscape is one of quiet resilience, where the light shifts from a stark, golden brilliance at midday to a deep, bruised violet as the shadows lengthen across the uneven ground.
History lingers in the quietude of the surroundings, marked by the echoes of those who once navigated the rugged passage of The Military Road. Economic life in Lake Roberts Heights remains tethered to the rhythms of the land and the seasonal stewardship of the surrounding Gila National Forest, favoring a slow, deliberate pace of existence over the frantic impulses of modern industry. The character of the locale is forged by its isolation, a place where the stillness is rarely broken save for the occasional movement of wildlife or the seasonal whispers of the wind through the timber. Residents and travelers alike find themselves beholden to the elemental nature of the region, where the demands of the environment dictate a life of careful observation and enduring patience.

About This Lake Roberts Heights Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lake Roberts Heights, New Mexico. Coordinates: 33.0271, -108.1381. 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 Lake Roberts Heights includes the ZIP code (88049), telephone area code (575), county seat of Grant County (Silver City), and school district assignment (Cobre Consolidated Schools).
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.
