2017 Map of Sunnyside

About this map

The city of Sunnyside anchors this Yakima Valley landscape, showing a dense street grid that transitions into a highly engineered agricultural environment. An extensive network of irrigation infrastructure, including the Sunnyside Canal and Turner Lateral, winds around local elevations like Snipes Mtn and Harrison Hill. These water systems are central to the valley's development, enabling the orchards and fields that surround smaller settlements like Outlook, Emerald, and Midvale. Along the southern edge, the Yakima River meanders near the Dept of Fish and Wildlife lands and Game Reserve, creating a complex of wetlands including McBride Slough and Bounds Pond. For those tracing local history, the map identifies several significant burial sites, from the Outlook Cem to the concentrated group of Sunnyside Cem, Lower Valley Memorial Gardens, and Sunnyside Memorial Gardens north of the main city center.
