Explore Cottonwood Heights, 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 Cottonwood Heights, 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 Cottonwood 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.

Cottonwood Heights rises from the high, arid benchlands where the earth shifts from flat basin floor to the steep, rugged incline of the foothills. It lies 1.4 miles north-northeast of Pleasant View, UT (from Pleasant View, UT: bearing 28°T), and is situated 7.8 miles north of Ogden. Dry, sage-scented winds sweep across the landscape, carrying the crisp scent of high-altitude air that defines the transition between the valley floor and the distant, jagged silhouette of the Wasatch Range on the horizon. To the north, the terrain dips into the quiet, carved depression of Ridge Canyon, while the immediate surroundings are defined by the modest, purposeful greenery of Wadman Nature Park. Sunlight here possesses a sharp, clarifying quality, bleaching the summer grasses to a pale straw color and casting long, indigo shadows against the dry earth as the day wanes.
Cottonwood Heights maintains a steady, industrious pace that reflects the pragmatic spirit of a population shaped by the region’s history of settlement and labor. Residents often traverse the nearby Skyline Trail to find a vantage point over the urban sprawl, though the local economy remains anchored by a mix of professional services and the quiet commerce of a suburban hub. Life moves with a deliberate, measured rhythm, occasionally punctuated by the seasonal runoff that feeds the flow of Rice Creek nearby. While Willard Bay Reservoir remains a distant blue mark on the map, the local character is defined far more by the immediate, terrestrial reality of the bench—a place where the influence of the high desert persists in the architecture, the sparse vegetation, and the clear, unyielding light of the afternoon.

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.
