Explore Clear Creek, 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 Clear Creek, 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 Clear Creek.
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.

Clear Creek occupies a rugged intersection where the earth yields to the steep, vertical constraints of Barn Canyon. It lies 39.4 miles southeast of Salem, UT (from Salem, UT: bearing 135°T), and is situated 18.5 miles west of Price. Mud Creek carves a path through this narrow corridor, its water cold and relentless as it mirrors the shifting light of a high-altitude sky. To the west, the distant, snow-dusted silhouette of the Wasatch Range anchors the horizon, while the immediate landscape is defined by raw, exposed strata and the sharp scent of sagebrush. The air here carries a thin, crisp quality, particularly as dusk settles, turning the jagged rock faces into shades of deepening violet and charcoal. Within a mile, the protective boundary of the Manti-La Sal National Forest begins, offering a dense, timbered contrast to the austere, sun-bleached slopes that define the immediate surroundings.
Clear Creek remains defined by the echoes of mineral extraction and the slow, persistent labor of those who once sought wealth beneath the surface of these hills. While the industry has receded, the physical footprint of that era remains in the quiet, weathered remnants of infrastructure that cling to the canyon walls. Today, the economy relies on a more tempered relationship with the land, often looking toward the nearby Manti-La Sal National Forest - Manti Division for the stewardship of timber and the maintenance of wilderness access. Four miles to the north, the presence of Electric Lake provides a rare, glassy stillness to the terrain, a stark departure from the rushing motion of the local streams. Life in Clear Creek moves with the deliberate pace of a place that understands its own isolation, marked by long winters and the quiet, enduring resilience of a high-desert existence.

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.
