Explore Cedar Highlands, Utah, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cedar Highlands, Utah. 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 Utah 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 Cedar Highlands.
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.

Cedar Highlands rises from the rugged, high-altitude terrain where the vast expanse of the Rocky Mountains defines the horizon. It lies 2.9 miles south-southeast of Cedar City, UT (from Cedar City, UT: bearing 162°T), and is situated 9.4 miles south of Enoch. Sunlight here possesses a brittle clarity, sharpening the edges of the juniper and sagebrush that cling to the dry, stony earth. The landscape remains defined by its elevation and the deep, silent shadows cast by the surrounding slopes, while the nearby Green Hollow offers a subtle dip in the elevation, providing a brief respite from the incline. Moisture is a precious commodity in this climate, whispered through the thin, cool air that moves down from the heights, occasionally tracing the path of Squaw Creek as it cuts through the terrain just a short distance away.
Cedar Highlands carries the weight of a frontier history, where the initial impulse to carve a life out of the high desert remains visible in the sturdy, deliberate layout of the roads. The local economy persists as a quiet reflection of the rugged environment, favoring those who value the solitude of the mountain air over the frantic pace of the lowlands. Residents often look toward East Canyon Park for a connection to the wilder, preserved reaches of the landscape, finding comfort in the silence that settles over the region at dusk. Life in Cedar Highlands moves with the sun, governed by the rhythm of the seasons and the enduring, stoic presence of the earth that sustains it.

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.
