About this map

Woodland serves as the regional hub for this portion of the Sacramento Valley, anchoring a landscape defined by an extensive network of irrigation and drainage infrastructure. This hydraulic system, featuring the Acacia Canal, Magnolia Canal, and Moore Canal, illustrates the area's intensive agricultural development supported by the waters of Cache Creek. The street grid of the city is well-established, centered on the Yolo County Courthouse and extending toward the Woodland Cem in the south.

Outside the urban center, the terrain rises toward the Dunnigan Hills in the northwest and the Monument Hills to the west. Small agricultural settlements like Yolo and Sugarfield dot the surrounding plains, while named waterways such as Willow Slough and the South Fork Ditch carve through the fertile valley floor. The map records a transition from organized town life to the vast, channeled fields of Yolo County.
