About this map

The Sacramento River defines the landscape of this 1915 survey, winding through the Sutter Basin and forming a series of tight oxbows such as State Ranch Bend, Missouri Bend, and Eldorado Bend. This era of the Sacramento Valley was characterized by a transition from traditional river landings to rail-dominated logistics. The presence of Rough and Ready Landing on the riverbank stands in contrast to the Southern Pacific (Woodland Line) cutting diagonally across the plains toward the settlement of Ronda. Local history and archaeological interest are grounded in specific landmarks like the Indian Mound and the seasonal patterns of Sycamore Slough and Cache Creek, which reflect the complex hydrology of the region before modern intensive water management. The map also captures temporary work sites like Derby Camp tucked into a bend of the river.
