Meridian and the surrounding agricultural landscape of the Central Valley define this modern survey at the junction of Sutter and Colusa counties. The town site, situated along a sharp bend of the Sacramento River, is supported by a network of drainage features and bypasses including the Sycamore Cutoff, Butte Slough, and Sycamore Slough. To the east, the terrain rises abruptly into the Sutter Buttes, contrasting with the low-lying wetlands of the Butte Sink. This map details the local road infrastructure used by the farming community, from Decker Rd to Pass Rd, and identifies local landmarks such as the Meridian Cem and Colusa County Airport. The settlement pattern follows the river's path, with smaller locations like Arbee, Sycamore, and Moons Bend punctuating the productive valley floor.
