2021 Map of Bird Valley

About this map

The Capay Hills rise sharply above the western edge of the Central Valley in this topographic study of Yolo County. The landscape is defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages and canyons, including Salt Canyon, Fox Canyon, and the deeply etched Tut Canyon, which all descend from the high point at Bald Mtn. East of these heights, the land transitions into the productive agricultural flats of Hungry Hollow and the rolling terrain of the Dunnigan Hills. The map traces the winding paths of several forks of Bird Cr and Oat Valley Oat Cr, showing a rural infrastructure dominated by county roads like Co Rd 85 and Co Hwy E4 that follow the section lines of the Public Land Survey System. The presence of Sulphur Spring near Burger Canyon highlights the area's natural mineral features amidst its rugged ranching and farming history.
