2018 Map of Clarksburg

About this map

The Sacramento River meanders through this portion of the Sacramento Valley, defining the boundary between Yolo and Sacramento counties. This 2018 survey captures the intricate water management system of the Delta region, where the massive Sacramento River Deep Water Ship Channel runs parallel to natural and man-made waterways like the Toe Drain and Tule Canal. The river's winding course creates distinct landforms such as Merritt Island and Freeport Bend, while the small settlement of Clarksburg sits protected by levees along the western bank. To the north, the southern edges of Sacramento give way to rural infrastructure, including the Borges - Clarksburg Airport and a network of agricultural roads such as Netherlands Ave and Clarksburg Rd. This landscape reflects a late-2010s balance of intensive river-based commerce, local aviation, and the enduring drainage patterns of Babel Slough and Elk Slough.
