How to Use This Stonyford, California Map

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

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 Stonyford, California

Stonyford is a locality in Colusa County, California, United States. It is a small community with a population of 133. The population density is 36.6 people per km². Stonyford is located at 39.3752°N, 122.5442°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 95979.

Stonyford occupies a quiet, sun-drenched expanse where the land rises into tawny, oak-dotted slopes that define the interior landscape. It lies 29.1 miles north of Clearlake, CA (from Clearlake, CA: bearing 9°T), and is situated 31.7 miles southwest of Orland. Salt Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the dry earth, its seasonal flow a vital pulse for the surrounding grasses that turn a brittle, pale gold under the persistent heat of summer. Beyond the immediate terrain, the expansive Mendocino National Forest offers a dense, protective backdrop of timber and brush, while the nearby Indian Valley provides a flatter, more open contrast to the rugged topography. East Park Reservoir sits just two miles away, its contained waters offering a steady, reflective stillness that anchors the horizon line, far removed from any maritime influence.

Stonyford maintains a character forged by the steady demands of pastoral life and the enduring rhythms of the land. Historically, the area grew from the needs of those tending livestock and working the soil, a legacy that remains visible in the modest architecture and the deliberate, unhurried pace of daily business. The local economy persists in its reliance on the surrounding woods and fields, where the industrious spirit of the inhabitants is measured by the changing seasons rather than the frantic tempo of distant, paved centers. For those seeking a deeper connection to the wilderness, the Trout Creek Trail offers a path into the higher elevations, where the air thins and the view of the distant Coast Ranges emerges as a faint, jagged shadow against the sky.

About This Stonyford Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Stonyford, California. Coordinates: 39.375162, -122.544155. 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 Stonyford includes the ZIP code (95979), telephone area code (530), county seat of Colusa County (Colusa), and school district assignment (Stony Creek Joint Unified School District).

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.
