Explore Redwood Valley, California, 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 Redwood Valley, 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 Redwood Valley.
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.

Redwood Valley holds the quiet gravity of a landscape defined by the slow, persistent movement of the Russian River. It lies 8.0 miles north of Ukiah, CA (from Ukiah, CA: bearing 1°T), and is situated 12.8 miles southeast of Willits. The Russian River carves a path through the valley floor, its presence a constant, cooling thread that sustains the verdant pockets amidst the surrounding dry, golden terrain. In the late afternoon, the light settles heavy and amber against the slopes, illuminating the transition from open savanna to the dense, shaded groves that give Redwood Valley its name. Residents often gather at the Redwood Valley Lions Club Park, where the stillness of the air mirrors the deliberate pace of the valley, and the distant, hazy blue of the Coast Ranges marks the furthest boundary of the horizon.
Agriculture remains the pulse of Redwood Valley, as rows of grapevines follow the contours of the earth, thriving in the warmth of the inland sun. A few miles to the south, the water held by Lake Mendocino provides a vital reservoir, anchoring the local economy and tempering the heat that descends upon the fields during the peak of summer. History here is written in the soil and the persistent growth of the orchards, reflecting a legacy of cultivation that has long defined the character of the people. Life in Redwood Valley moves in synchronization with the seasons, from the emerald flush of early spring to the crisp, tinder-dry stillness of autumn, maintaining a rhythm that feels entirely its own.

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.
