How to Use This Emerald Mountain, Alabama Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Emerald Mountain, Alabama. 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 Alabama 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 Emerald Mountain.

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.

About Emerald Mountain, Alabama

Emerald Mountain is a locality in Elmore County, Alabama, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,310. The population density is 79.4 people per km². Emerald Mountain is located at 32.4477°N, 86.0944°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 36093.

Emerald Mountain rises above the surrounding red-clay landscape as a quiet prominence draped in longleaf pine and dense bottomland hardwood. It lies 12.4 miles north of Pike Road, AL (from Pike Road, AL: bearing 0°T), and is situated 8.4 miles southeast of Wetumpka. The air here holds a heavy, humid stillness that clings to the skin, cooling only when the sun dips behind the distant silhouette of Heck Ridge. Beneath the canopy, the terrain fractures into the secluded, shaded depths of Crabapple Valley, while the nearby Brensen Branch carves a narrow, winding path through the soil. A few miles to the east, the surface of Poundstone Lake reflects the vast, shifting colors of the late afternoon sky, anchoring a topography defined by inland woods rather than the distant, salt-swept plains of the south.

Emerald Mountain carries a legacy of quiet resilience, its character forged by the slow, deliberate work of those who have long cultivated the peach and pecan groves that define the local economy. The rhythms of life here are dictated by the changing seasons and the persistent memory of the land, which remains largely untouched and preserved in pockets like the State-owned Submerged Lands. While the modern world moves with frantic haste elsewhere, the pace here remains tethered to the natural cycles of the forest and the overflow of the nearby landscape. On quiet days, one might catch the faint, rhythmic rush of water from Wetumpka Falls carried on the breeze, a reminder of the enduring geological forces that continue to shape the quiet, clay-rich earth of the region.
