About this map

Grizzly Flats anchor this terrain within the Eldorado National Forest, where steep canyons and ridges define the northern reach of the Cosumnes River watershed. The landscape is marked by the central waters of Jenkinson Lake, fed by Sly Park Cr and surrounded by a network of recreational trails like the Bumpy Meadows Trl and the Fleming Meadow Loop Trl. To the south, the settlement at Grizzly Flats is situated near the Grizzly Flat Cemetery and Sunday Ridge, reflecting a long-standing footprint in this mountain environment.

Historical routes like the Mormon Emigrant Trail cross the northeast, while the southern reaches are bisected by the Steely Fork Cosumnes River and the N Fork Cosumnes River. This survey highlights a blend of forest management and residential development, evident in the numerous named roads like Blue Gouge Mine Rd and Whiskey River Rd that weave through local landmarks such as Happy Valley and Sturdevant Ridge.
