1992 Map of Sheridan

About this map

Sheridan anchors the eastern edge of this Central Valley landscape, situated just south of the Bear River where it forms the border between Placer and Yuba counties. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainage and water management, including the Yankee Slough, Coon Creek, and several siphons and aqueducts that crisscross the agricultural floor. To the south, the Mc Clellan Air Force Base Lincoln Communications Annex stands as a distinct institutional footprint amidst the rural sections and section lines. The map reveals the deep history of land division in the region, prominently featuring the Johnson Rancho and the complex system of levees protecting the low-lying plains. Local transit is marked by routes like Betz Road and Kempton Road, which serve the scattered farmsteads and agricultural plots that characterize this corner of the valley in the early 1990s.
