2012 Map of Sanborn Slough

About this map

Drumheller Slough and Butte Cr weave through this section of the Sacramento Valley, defining a landscape shaped by water management and agriculture. This 2012 survey shows the intricate network of irrigation and flood control, including the Cherokee Canal and the Main Drainage Canal, which support the surrounding fertile plains. Historically significant points like French Crossing mark old transit routes over the waterways, while modern agricultural footprints such as The Berry Patch indicate the area's continued reliance on the land. The map also captures the path of the Sacramento R along its western edge, providing a look at the vital water artery that feeds Sanborn Slough and Angel Slough.
