2015 Map of Browns Valley

About this map

Browns Valley sits at the foot of the Browns Valley Ridge, marking a transition from the lower Sacramento Valley to the rising terrain of the northeast. This 2015 update of Yuba County geography documents the complex hydrology of the Yuba River corridor, where the Daguerre Point area and Marysville Lake dominate the central landscape. The settlement of Hammonton is located just south of the river, while the northern sections are defined by landmarks such as the Browns Valley Cemetery and the Trainer Hills. The southern portion of the map is significantly occupied by the northern reaches of Beale Air Force Base, showing a military presence alongside agricultural and riparian zones. Water management is a clear theme, illustrated by the presence of the Cordua Canal and numerous seasonal creeks like Reeds Cr and Jack Slough.
