How to Use This Colorado City, Arizona Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Colorado City, Arizona. 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 to zoom in and out.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, 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).

Drag the map to pan to any area of Arizona or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Colorado City and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.

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. 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 Colorado City.

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.

Colorado City occupies a stark, arid expanse where the persistent flow of Short Creek carves a path through the high desert floor. It lies 21.5 miles southeast of Hurricane, UT (from Hurricane, UT: bearing 126°T), and is situated 33.5 miles east-southeast of St. George. The landscape around Colorado City is defined by the sharp, dramatic contrast of sun-bleached earth and the deep shadows cast by the nearby cliffs of Maxwell Canyon, located just two miles away. Cottonwood Park serves as a modest green anchor amidst this dry terrain, providing a rare gathering space where the shade of trees offers respite from the unrelenting brilliance of the midday sun. In the distance, the silhouette of The Beehive rises against the skyline, a silent sentinel watching over the plains, while the waters of the Lakes of Short Creek remain a quiet presence only three miles from the center of the settlement. History clings to the red-dusted soil of Colorado City, reflecting a legacy of isolation and a deliberate, communal way of life that has persisted through decades of change. The local economy has shifted from a closed, agrarian focus toward a more open integration with the surrounding region, though the rhythm of daily life remains tethered to the slow, seasonal shifts of the high desert. Houses and utilitarian structures are spread across the valley, their architecture echoing the utilitarian needs of those who first broke this ground. During the long, quiet afternoons, the air carries a dry, mineral scent, and the quality of light at dusk turns the surrounding canyon walls a bruised, vibrant violet, illuminating the quiet endurance of a place that remains distinctly itself.
