2020 Map of Richfield

About this map

Richfield and its surrounding agricultural valley are defined by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure and the rising slopes of the Fishlake National Forest. The local economy's reliance on water management is evident in the numerous waterways such as the Vermillion Canal, Piute Canal, and Sevier Valley Canal, which parallel the Sevier River to sustain the valley's farms. To the west, the landscape shifts abruptly into the high country of Table Mtn and Newts Canyon, where a complex system of historical routes like the Old Logging Road and Trail 1455 crisscross the timbered slopes. Notable for genealogists and local historians are the smaller named clusters of Prattsville, Venice, and Gramse, along with the Richfield City Cem and the Richfield Ccc site, reflecting the region's mid-century development and community structure.
