2015 Map of Taylor Monument

About this map

The Sacramento River meanders along the western edge of this landscape, defining the boundary between Sacramento and Yolo counties. This 2015 edition captures a complex hydrological network within the American Basin, where engineered waterways like the North Drainage Canal, West Drainage Canal, and N Main Canal manage the low-lying terrain of the Central Valley. Along the river's path, traditional landing points and bars such as Twelvemile Bar and Tenmile Shoals are noted, adjacent to the historic rail sidings of Kiesel and Beatrice.
