How to Use This Pacific House, California Map

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

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.

Pacific House occupies a rugged corridor where the earth rises in sharp, sun-bleached slopes, defined by the constant, low-frequency rush of the South Fork American River cutting through the terrain nearby. It lies 15.9 miles east of Placerville, CA (from Placerville, CA: bearing 83°T), and is situated 4.4 miles east of Pollock Pines. The air here holds the dry, resinous scent of pine and heated stone, a sharpness that lingers even as the light turns copper against the steep walls of Brockliss Canyon. Beyond the immediate reach of the slopes, the sprawling expanse of Eldorado National Forest envelops the landscape, its deep green shadows offering a stark contrast to the brittle, golden grasses of the lower foothills. Within this high, broken country, the proximity of Jenkinson Lake provides a quiet, glassy stillness that reflects the vast, cloudless sky, grounding the otherwise restless movement of the wind through the timber.

History clings to Pacific House like iron filings to a magnet, a vestige of the era when the passage of travelers toward the distant Sierra Nevada demanded a waypoint for rest and supplies. The local economy has long since moved past the frantic pulse of early transit, settling instead into the slow, deliberate rhythm of land stewardship and the quiet maintenance of a life lived far from the density of the plains. Residents and visitors alike find their orientation through the enduring presence of the forest, often following the winding path of the Big Hill Trail as it climbs into the higher elevations. There is a distinct, unyielding character to the life here, where the daily cycle is dictated by the slow shifts of the seasons and the enduring, silent weight of the landscape that has witnessed the slow transition from the bustling waystations of the past to the solitary, quiet persistence of the present.

About This Pacific House Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pacific House, California. Coordinates: 38.7591, -120.505513. 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 Pacific House includes the ZIP code (95726), telephone area code (530), county seat of El Dorado County (Placerville), and school district assignment.

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.
