How to Use This Granite, Utah Map

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

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.

Granite anchors itself firmly against the base of the foothills, where the earth rises sharply to meet the sky. It lies 1.8 miles east-northeast of Sandy, UT (from Sandy, UT: bearing 72°T), and is situated 7.4 miles east-southeast of West Jordan. The landscape is defined by the steady, rhythmic passage of Dry Creek, which carves a path through the terrain as it descends from the heights. To the east, the jagged, imposing silhouette of the Wasatch Range dominates the horizon, casting long, violet shadows across the valley floor as the afternoon light wanes. The air here carries a crisp, thin quality, cooling rapidly as the sun retreats behind the peaks, while the nearby Dimple Dell Park offers a quiet expanse of natural ground where the native grasses turn pale gold in the late season.

Granite retains the quiet, deliberate character of the early settlers who recognized the utility of the nearby Little Cottonwood Canyon for its abundance of stone and timber. While the surrounding region has shifted toward modern suburban expansion, the history of the place remains rooted in the rugged labor required to carve a livelihood from such steep, unyielding ground. Residents often look toward the higher elevations, where the distant, thunderous spray of Lisa Falls marks the seasonal thaw, or find solace in the stillness of Lower Bells Canyon Reservoir. Life in Granite moves with a restrained, steady pulse, favoring the permanence of the landscape over the frantic pace of the urban centers that lie further out in the basin.
