How to Use This Sunnyside, California Map

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

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.

Sunnyside emerges from the forest edge as a quiet clearing where the deep, cold blue of Lake Tahoe defines the horizon. It lies 12.9 miles south of Truckee, CA (from Truckee, CA: bearing 173°T), and is situated 5.8 miles southeast of Squaw Valley. The landscape here is defined by the sharp, crystalline clarity of high-altitude air and the steady, rhythmic movement of Ward Creek as it carves its way through the terrain toward the water. To the west, the land rises in gentle slopes toward the high, jagged silhouettes of the Sierra Nevada, while the dense timber of the Onion Creek Experimental Forest stands as a solemn, silent sentinel over the basin. Travelers often find their way to Tahoe Park to witness the way the afternoon light catches the needles of the pine, turning the shadows into long, indigo strokes against the earth.

Sunnyside carries a history built upon the steady migration of those seeking the solace of the high country, shifting from seasonal timber interests to a slow-paced economy centered on the appreciation of the natural basin. The nearby Page Meadows offer a seasonal expanse of wildflowers and grasses, providing a counterpoint to the more rigorous, winding path of the Edward F Dolder Nature Trail. Residents maintain a life governed by the changing seasons, where the primary industry remains the quiet stewardship of the land and the hospitality offered to those who visit. Life in Sunnyside moves with a deliberate, measured gravity, reflecting a culture that values the permanence of the forest and the enduring, glacial depth of the lake over the frantic pace of the lowlands.
