About this map

El Dorado Hills serves as the central hub of this 2012 topographic study, showcasing a landscape defined by rapid residential expansion into the Sierra Nevada foothills. The map reveals an intricate network of modern residential developments, including Crown Village, Saint Andrews Village, and Ridgeview Village, which are interwoven with older geographic landmarks and water features. Along the western edge, the shoreline of Folsom Lake is highly detailed, featuring Browns Ravine Cove and the El Dorado Marina.

Preserved historical sites remain visible amidst the suburban growth, most notably the Clarksville Cem near the town of Clarksville and the Mormon Island Cem further west. These sites, along with the proximity of Mormon Hill, provide a direct link to the Gold Rush history of the region. The map also captures significant water management features like the Carson Creek Watershed Reservoir and the drainage patterns of New York Creek and Sweetwater Cr.
