2020 Map of Middleton

About this map

The Boise River serves as the central artery for this portion of the Treasure Valley, where an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure supports the agricultural landscape between Middleton and Star. The sheet details a complex system of water management, including the Newman Lateral, Caldwell High Line Canal, and Phyllis Slough, which weave through the lowlands to reclaim the arid plains for farming. This 2020 edition captures the ongoing transition of the area as urban expansion from Nampa and Caldwell moves north toward McIntyre Hill. Significant local landmarks such as Foster Field and the small settlement of Maddens are documented alongside numerous named drains and ditches like the Lawrence Kennedy Canal and Middleton Canal, illustrating the enduring importance of water rights and land division in the region's development.
