Explore Garrett, Washington, 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 Garrett, Washington. 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 Washington 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 Garrett.
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.

Garrett emerges from the dry, expansive plateau where the persistent, silver ribbon of Cold Creek cuts a narrow path through the dust-colored earth. It lies 3.0 miles west-southwest of Walla Walla, WA (from Walla Walla, WA: bearing 253°T), and is situated 4.2 miles east of Whitman. The landscape surrounding Garrett is defined by the steady, rhythmic presence of Blalock Lake, which catches the high-desert light and holds it in a flat, unblinking gaze against the horizon. To the east, the Blue Mountains rise in a jagged, hazy indigo silhouette, grounding the vast sky and offering a sharp contrast to the low-lying plains that stretch toward Spring Valley. The air here carries a crisp, parched quality, especially as the sun dips low and casts long, thin shadows across the sagebrush and the quiet, weathered architecture of the streets.
Garrett maintains an economy built on the slow, deliberate work of the inland soil, where the cycles of planting and harvest dictate the cadence of the days. The legacy of those who first broke this ground remains visible in the sturdy, unadorned buildings that house local trade, each structure bearing the marks of a climate that demands resilience. Residents often gather at Kiwanis Park, a quiet patch of green that serves as a necessary respite from the heat, providing a space where the pace of life seems to slow to the speed of the drifting clouds. While the town remains quiet, there is a distinct, enduring character in the way Garrett persists in this expanse, far removed from the dampness of the coast, defined instead by the steady flow of the creek and the imposing, distant watch of the mountains.

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.
