1953 Map of Sloughhouse

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Sloughhouse and the fertile bottomlands of the Cosumnes River valley are shown here during the early 1950s, a period where traditional ranching began to meet modern infrastructure. The landscape is defined by the sweeping Levee systems and old land grants, notably the Omochumnes and San Juan boundaries. While much of the area remained agricultural, the scars of industrial extraction are visible through the extensive Dredge Tailings near the eastern hills. Local civic life is anchored by landmarks like the Alta Mesa Community Hall and the Alta Mesa Gun Club, alongside rural education hubs such as Cosumnes River School and the already Rhoads Sch (Aban'd). The drainage patterns of Deer Creek and Laguna Creek highlight the transition from the Sierra Nevada foothills toward the Central Valley floor, served by the Central California Traction Road and a network of named ranch roads.
