How to Use This Timberlake, New Mexico Map

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

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.

Timberlake emerges from the high desert plateau as a quiet collection of dwellings shadowed by the vast, open expanse of the Cibola National Forest. It lies 25.9 miles south-southeast of Gallup, NM (from Gallup, NM: bearing 148°T), and is situated 22.0 miles east-northeast of Zuni Pueblo. The landscape is defined by the stark, terrestrial beauty of the high country, where the air remains thin and crisp against the skin, and the sun bleaches the earth to shades of pale ochre and bone. To the west, the distant outline of McKenzie Ridge asserts a rugged boundary against the horizon, while the terrain near Timberlake breaks into the rugged, shadowed depths of Blind Canyon. Water is a precious, infrequent visitor here, manifesting in the seasonal flow of Cebolla Creek or the quiet, still surface of Ramah Reservoir, both of which offer a brief reprieve from the relentless aridity of the scrubland.

History lingers in the quietude of the region, where the influence of diverse cultures remains etched into the way the land is worked and the architecture is maintained. The local economy persists through a resilient connection to the soil and the sprawling reaches of the Cibola National Forest, which dictates the pace of life for those who call Timberlake home. Travelers passing through may find themselves drawn to the rhythmic sound of water spilling over The Falls, a singular point of interest where the dry earth yields to a sudden, vertical rush of energy. Daily existence in Timberlake is marked by the shifting quality of light, which turns the surrounding pinon and juniper forests into deep, velvet silhouettes as the afternoon wanes and the temperature drops with the suddenness of the high desert night.
