How to Use This Howell, Utah Map

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

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.

Howell emerges from the wide, dry expanse of northern Utah as a quiet study in resilience and deliberate, measured growth. It lies 15.5 miles west-northwest of Tremonton, UT (from Tremonton, UT: bearing 292°T), and is situated 15.1 miles west-northwest of Garland. Blue Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the sagebrush and scrubland, providing a thin ribbon of moisture that defines the immediate topography. The land around Howell stretches toward the horizon in muted shades of tan and gray, where the sky claims a vast portion of the view and the air carries a distinct, sharp clarity. In the far distance, the jagged silhouettes of the Wasatch Range occasionally catch the light of a setting sun, acting as a distant, silent guardian to the basin. Only a mile away, the quiet waters of Blue Creek Reservoir hold the reflection of the clouds, offering a stillness that seems to permeate the very soil of the surrounding plains.

Agriculture provides the steady, rhythmic pulse of life here, as Howell maintains a character shaped by the labor of those who cultivate the arid, unforgiving earth. The economy remains rooted in the cycles of the harvest and the management of livestock, trades that have long defined the daily habits of the local inhabitants. Travelers passing toward the Central Pacific Railroad Grade Area of Critical Environmental Concern might notice how the modern day-to-day existence is tethered to the physical remnants of earlier industry and transport. Six miles away, the basin known as Sand Hollow serves as a reminder of the geological processes that continue to shape this environment. Life in Howell proceeds with a profound lack of pretense, favoring the steady work of the fields and the quiet contentment found in a landscape that demands both patience and respect.

About This Howell Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Howell, Utah. Coordinates: 41.778746, -112.448024. 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 Howell includes the ZIP code (84316), telephone area code (435), county seat of Box Elder County (Brigham City), and school district assignment (Box Elder 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.
