How to Use This Sequoia Crest, California Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Sequoia Crest, 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 Sequoia Crest.
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 Sequoia Crest, California
Sequoia Crest is a locality in Tulare County, California, United States. It is a small community with a population of 24. The population density is 9.1 people per km². Sequoia Crest is located at 36.1858°N, 118.6256°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 93265.Sequoia Crest claims a rugged portion of the high-altitude landscape where the air thins and sharpens against the palate. It lies 23.4 miles east-northeast of Porterville, CA (from Porterville, CA: bearing 69°T), and is situated 25.8 miles east of Lindsay. Massive granite outcroppings define the terrain of Sequoia Crest, rising above the dense canopy of the surrounding Alder Creek PCON to catch the first, cold light of dawn. A mile away, the quiet basin of Hossack Meadow holds the morning frost, while the persistent, rhythmic flow of South Alder Creek carves through the stone nearby. Sunlight here possesses a brittle, crystalline quality, illuminating the deep, resinous shadows of the conifers that dominate the skyline as the Sierra Nevada range looms as a distant, jagged silhouette against the horizon.
History clings to the earth in the form of old logging remnants and the silent, enduring strength of the timber industry that once defined the regional livelihood. Sequoia Crest remains tethered to the rhythms of the forest, far removed from the frantic pace of the lowlands, with the distant, thundering presence of Cholollo Falls echoing through the canyons during the thaw. Residents find a solitary purpose in the seasonal transitions, often traversing the Black Mountain Trail to observe the changing hues of the brush. While the proximity to Sequoia National Forest ensures a vast, protected wilderness, life in Sequoia Crest is measured by the stillness of Hedrick Mill Pond and the slow, deliberate growth of the timber that anchors the identity of the land.

About This Sequoia Crest Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sequoia Crest, California. Coordinates: 36.1858, -118.6256. 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 Sequoia Crest includes the ZIP code (93265), telephone area code (661), county seat of Tulare County (Visalia), and school district assignment (Porterville Unified School District (9-12)).
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.
