2020 Map of Richfield

About this map

Richfield sits as the central hub of an intricate irrigation network in this Idaho landscape. The town plan is oriented along the Little Wood River, which meanders across the southern portion of the quadrangle. North of the settlement, the terrain is dominated by an extensive system of water management, including the West Main Canal, East Main Canal, and dozens of numbered laterals like Lateral 1096 and Lateral 1150. These canals reflect the agricultural engineering required to sustain the high desert. To the northwest, the prominent Johnson Butte rises above the surrounding plains, providing a significant geological landmark. The map also traces older natural water features like the Jim Burns Slough and Cottonwood Slough, which run alongside the modern man-made channels such as the Dietrich Main Canal.
