How to Use This Cedarville, California Map

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

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.

Cedar Creek carves a clear, persistent path through the high-desert earth, marking the northern boundary of the landscape that defines Cedarville. It lies 80.9 miles north-northeast of Susanville, CA (from Susanville, CA: bearing 18°T), and is situated 19.3 miles east of Alturas. The town occupies a vast, sun-bleached expanse where the horizon stretches toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Sierra Nevada, a range so far removed that it feels like a memory of stone. Just two miles to the east, the flat, reflective surface of Middle Alkali Lake gathers the sky, turning a pale, metallic blue under the relentless intensity of the afternoon sun. Vegetation here is sparse and hardy, favoring the dry, alkaline soil that separates the valley floor from the rugged, rocky terrain of Cooks Canyon only three miles away. The light in Cedarville possesses a peculiar, sharp clarity, stripping away artifice and leaving only the stark, honest geometry of sagebrush and wide, open sky.

Modoc Park serves as the quiet anchor for the local spirit, providing a communal space that reflects the modest, self-reliant pace of life in Cedarville. Agriculture remains the quiet pulse of the regional economy, with the rhythms of the seasons dictating the work of those who tend the surrounding fields and manage the local livestock. History is found not in grand monuments but in the weathered wooden structures that have survived the shifting patterns of the valley’s development, standing as witnesses to generations who worked this challenging, arid ground. Residents often look toward the higher elevations, where the Owl Creek Trail offers a path into the wilder, upward-reaching reaches of the region. Life moves with an unpretentious gravity here, shaped by the thin, dry air and the profound silence that settles over the plains once the sun dips below the western edge of the world.
