2012 Map of Liberty Island

About this map

Liberty Island and Prospect Island anchor this hydrographic landscape of the Sacramento River Delta, where a complex network of sloughs and cuts facilitates both drainage and navigation. The Sacramento River Deep Water Ship Channel dominates the eastern corridor, flanked by the Toe Drain and Liberty Cut. This 2012 survey illustrates the region's heavy reliance on water-borne transport and agricultural infrastructure, evidenced by numerous historical docking points like Chicory Wharf, Kidder Landing, and Lents Landing along Miner Slough. Inland, the economy shifts toward energy extraction at the Millar Gas Field and Maine Prairie Gas Field. Small agricultural clusters such as Lund, Daisie, and Liberty Farms are connected by a grid of rural roads, including Liberty Island Rd and Co Rd 104, which navigate the low-lying terrain between Cache Slough and Shag Slough.
