How to Use This Camptonville, California Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Camptonville, California. 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 California 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 Camptonville.

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 Camptonville, California

Camptonville occupies a rugged expanse of high-altitude forest where the cold, clear pulse of Oregon Creek carves deep paths through the earth. It lies 16.1 miles north of Grass Valley, CA (from Grass Valley, CA: bearing 2°T), and is situated 17.2 miles north-northeast of Lake Wildwood. The air here holds a crisp, resinous weight, filtered through the dense conifers of Tahoe National Forest that press against the edges of the settlement. To the east, the distant silhouette of the Sierra Nevada catches the fading light, turning the horizon into a jagged line of violet and indigo. Nearby, the uneven terrain of Campbell Gulch drops away into shadow, while the surface of New Bullards Bar Reservoir sits like a polished mirror, reflecting the stillness of the surrounding woodland.

Gold-flecked earth remains the silent architect of Camptonville, a place born from the frantic industry of nineteenth-century mining that once turned these hills into a theater of ambition. Where hydraulic monitors once scarred the slopes, a quiet economy of timber and local craft now persists, moving at a pace dictated by the seasonal turn of the canopy. Residents move through the day with the deliberate focus of those who live close to the timberline, far from the frantic hum of the lowlands. Those seeking a longer path through the wilderness often venture toward the Fiddle Creek Trail, where the silence is broken only by the shifting of needles underfoot and the occasional call of a hawk circling the canopy.

About This Camptonville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Camptonville, California. Coordinates: 39.451836, -121.048566. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Camptonville includes the ZIP code (95922), telephone area code (530), county seat of Yuba County (Marysville), and school district assignment (Camptonville Elementary School District).

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.
