2021 Map of Groveland

About this map

The Sierra Nevada foothills define this landscape, where the Groveland community and the smaller settlement of Second Garrotte sit at the edge of the Stanislaus National Forest. The map illustrates a complex interface between residential development and the natural environment, particularly around the large water body of Pine Mountain Lake and its surrounding network of namesake roads like Pine Mountain Dr. Significant local history is preserved in labels for the Divide Cem and the Garrotte Basin, names that recall the region's 19th-century mining heritage. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly steep and varied, marked by features such as Hells Hollow and Jackass Ridge. The northeastern corner is anchored by the Tuolumne Wild and Scenic River, while the southern boundary follows the border between Tuolumne and Mariposa counties along Wagner Ridge.
