2018 Map of Folsom

About this map

The waters of Folsom Lake and Lake Natoma dominate the landscape of this 2018 survey, reflecting the significant water management infrastructure on the American River. This detailed view captures the dense suburban expansion of Roseville and Citrus Heights in the north and west, contrasting with the recreational and historical corridors along the river. Of particular note for local historians are the river's shoreline features, including Mississippi Bar and Negro Bar, which point to the area's rich hydraulic mining and dredging history. The map also delineates the transition into the foothills, where the Folsom South Canal begins its journey south. For those tracing the evolution of local landmarks, the Rainbow Bridge and Lakeside Memorial Lawn Cem are clearly marked, alongside the developing campus of Folsom Lake College.
