2015 Map of Grays Bend

About this map

Grays Bend and the surrounding agricultural landscape of the Sacramento Valley define this region of Yolo County. The terrain is characterized by a sophisticated network of water management features designed to control the flow of the Sacramento River and its tributaries. Significant infrastructure like the Knights Landing-Ridge Cut, the Cache Creek Settling Basin, and the Tule Canal illustrate the intensive engineering required to manage the Cache Creek Sink and protect local interests such as King Farms. On the western edge, the expansion of the Woodland area is visible through the Woodland Community Coll campus and residential developments along E Main St. Small settlements like Conaway and Fremont remain positioned near the river, reflecting the area's long-standing connection to both rail and water transport in the Central Valley.
