Explore Samak, 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 Samak, 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 Samak.
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.

Samak holds the steady, rhythmic pulse of the high country, defined by the persistent flow of Beaver Creek as it carves through the landscape. It lies 13.6 miles northeast of Heber, UT (from Heber, UT: bearing 51°T), and is situated 3.9 miles east-southeast of Kamas. The air here carries a crisp, thin clarity that sharpens the edges of the horizon, where the distant silhouettes of the Wasatch Range loom in shades of bruised purple and charcoal gray. Within Red Pine Canyon, the terrain shifts from open, sage-dusted flats to dense stands of pine, creating a sanctuary of stillness that extends toward the Kamas State Wildlife Area. When the light of late afternoon slants across the valley floor, the texture of the soil reveals its ancient, mineral-heavy character, grounding the earth in a muted palette of ochre and dust.
Samak emerged from the rugged necessity of pioneers who recognized the value of the timber and the seasonal bounty offered by the surrounding wilderness. The local economy remains tethered to this legacy, balanced between the quiet work of land stewardship and the slow, deliberate pace of mountain life. Travelers seeking to engage with the wilder edges of the terrain often look toward the Nobletts Creek Trail for passage into the vast, protective reaches of the Wasatch National Forest. Life in Samak persists in harmony with the cycles of the seasons, far removed from the clamor of the urban front, where even the stillness of Lower Yellow Pine Lake seems to hold the memory of the early settlers who first navigated these high, lonely corridors.

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.
