How to Use This Cateechee, South Carolina Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cateechee, South Carolina. 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 South Carolina 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 Cateechee.

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.

About Cateechee, South Carolina

Cateechee emerges from the verdant piedmont landscape where the persistent waters of Twelvemile Creek carve a steady, winding path through the clay-rich soil. It lies 7.0 miles north-northeast of Clemson, SC (from Clemson, SC: bearing 31°T), and is situated 7.5 miles north-northeast of Clemson University. The horizon is defined by the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains, which stand as a silent, jagged sentry nine miles to the northwest. Within the immediate vicinity, the earth rises and falls in measured swells, shaded by deep thickets of pine and oak that temper the intensity of the midday heat. A short distance away, the quiet waters of Issaqueena Lake offer a reflective stillness, while the grounds of Norris Park provide a local sanctuary where the pace of life slows to the rhythm of the turning seasons.

Cateechee carries the weight of a complex history, its identity rooted in the industrial shifts that once defined the regional economy of the upstate. Where textile mills formerly hummed with the labor of the surrounding countryside, the land has reclaimed a quieter purpose, transitioning from a hub of manufacturing to a quiet corridor of residential life. The legacy of the area lingers in the architecture of the older structures and the deep-seated traditions of the families who have long occupied these hollows. Residents often look toward the distant rush of High Falls, nine miles away, as a reminder of the raw, unhurried power of the natural world that continues to shape the character of Cateechee.

About This Cateechee Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cateechee, South Carolina. Coordinates: 34.770665, -82.773752. 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 Cateechee includes the ZIP code (29630), telephone area code (864), county seat of Pickens County (Pickens), and school district assignment (Pickens County School 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.
