Explore Pleasant Grove, Alabama, 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 Pleasant Grove, 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 Pleasant Grove.
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.

Pleasant Grove occupies a landscape defined by the persistent, winding course of Lost Creek, which carves a path through the dense, verdant terrain. It lies 5.9 miles west-southwest of Jasper, AL (from Jasper, AL: bearing 249°T), and is situated 17.0 miles west-northwest of Dora. The earth here is composed of deep, iron-rich red clay that clings to the boots of those who traverse the woodland trails, while the distant, hazy silhouette of the Blue Ridge provides a permanent boundary to the horizon. Beyond the immediate canopy of hardwoods, the terrain dips into the quiet seclusion of Stave Hollow, creating a topography that feels both enclosed and expansive. As the afternoon light wanes, the humidity holds the warmth of the day against the longleaf pines, casting a soft, amber glow that settles over the ridges and hollows with a stillness that seems to suspend time itself.
Pleasant Grove maintains a character forged by the steady, industrious spirit of a population that has long balanced the demands of regional commerce with the rhythms of the natural world. The local economy remains tethered to the industrious legacy of the surrounding land, where the proximity to the Wolf Creek Community Hunting Area preserves a tradition of stewardship over the wilderness. Residents often look toward the quiet expanse of Walker County Lake when seeking a reprieve from the daily pulse of work, finding a measure of calm in the water’s reflective surface. The life of Pleasant Grove is marked by a deliberate pace, where the legacy of past generations is felt in the architecture of the modest dwellings and the enduring connections of a society that prioritizes neighborly ties over the frantic pace of modern life.

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.
