About this map

El Dorado Hills and Folsom dominate this modern landscape where the Sierra Nevada foothills meet the Sacramento Valley. The map highlights the complex suburban interface with the natural terrain, centered around the sprawling waters of Folsom Lake. Along its southern shores, points like Knoxon Point and Bridge Point reach into the water, while several inlets such as Browns Ravine Cove and New York Creek Cove define the jagged shoreline.

Genealogical and historical interest is anchored by the Mormon Island Relocation Cemetery, a significant site for those tracing the families displaced by the reservoir's creation. Traces of the region's agricultural and mining heritage remain visible through features like the Natomas Ditch and the small settlement of Clarksville, which sits near its namesake Clarksville Cemetery. The terrain transitions from the valley floor to prominent heights like Iron Mountain and Morman Hill, interspersed with seasonal drainages like Sweetwater Creek and Carson Creek.
