2017 Map of Benton City

About this map

Benton City serves as the focal point for this landscape along the horseshoe bend of the Yakima River, where irrigation infrastructure and topographic elevation define the local economy. The prominent rise of Red Mtn dominates the central terrain, its slopes marked by access roads like S Red Mtn Rd and E Red Mountain Rd, while the McWhorter Canal illustrates the extensive water management systems essential to the region. To the north and west, the river creates distinct landforms such as The Island and Songbird Island, near the turbulent Horn Rapids. Local history and genealogy interests are anchored by the Evergreen Cem and a network of named rural routes, including US Reservation Rd and Jacobs Rd NE, which connect the scattered agricultural tracts and smaller water bodies like Lost Lake.
