About this map

The town of Winters sits at the base of the lower foothills where the Central Sacramento Valley Valley begins its westward stretch. This agricultural landscape is defined by an intricate network of water management, with the Putah Creek corridor forming the boundary between Yolo and Solano Counties. To the north, the terrain is partitioned by a series of irrigation features and natural drainage ways, including the Yolo Central Canal, Winters Canal, and Union School Slough.

Small agricultural hubs like Arroz and Norton punctuate the grid of county roads, such as Co RD 29 and Co RD 27, which service the surrounding orchards and fields. Local history is anchored by sites like the Winters Cemetery on the edge of town and the residential pocket of El Rio Villa. The map clearly illustrates the transition from the concentrated street grid of the town center to the vast, open acreage of the valley floor, where Chickahominy Slough and Dry Slough wind through the productive landscape.
