How to Use This Fairview, California Map

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

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 Fairview, California

Fairview is a locality in Trinity County, California, United States. It has a population of 11,341. The population density is 1472.4 people per km². Fairview is located at 37.6777°N, 122.0444°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP codes: 93238, 94542, 93021.

Fairview marks a rugged intersection of earth and water where the Trinity River carves a deep, serpentine path through the landscape. It lies 22.8 miles west-northwest of Shasta Lake, CA (from Shasta Lake, CA: bearing 295°T), and is situated 7.8 miles north-northeast of Lewiston. The terrain surrounding Fairview rises into steep, timbered slopes that define the character of the Whiskeytown Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area, a vast expanse of protected wilderness that dictates the rhythm of the territory. Trinity Lake rests nearby as a glassy, expansive presence, its stillness offering a stark contrast to the persistent rush of the riverbed. On clear days, the distant, serrated peaks of the Cascade Range emerge against the sky, standing as silent observers to the shifts in light that turn the valley floor from a sharp, morning green to a bruised, violet-gray by twilight. Digger Gulch cuts a narrow, shadowed incision into the nearby topography, a reminder of the relentless erosion that has shaped this inland basin over eons.

Fairview exists as a quiet testament to the enduring influence of the land, having emerged from a history deeply intertwined with the extraction of minerals and the quiet labor of the forest. The local economy persists in a delicate balance between the stewardship required by the Whiskeytown Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area and the legacy of earlier, more industrious eras. Beyond the immediate boundaries of Fairview, the dense canopy of the Ellen Pickett State Forest provides a dark, verdant backdrop that colors the local atmosphere, cooling the air during the long, tinder-dry summers. Daily life in Fairview moves with a deliberate, unadorned pace, characterized by the sounds of the river and the seasonal migrations of local wildlife. It is a place where the modern world feels distant, filtered through the high, dry heat of the interior and the physical weight of the surrounding wilderness.
