How to Use This Buhl, Idaho Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Buhl, Idaho. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Idaho or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Buhl.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Buhl occupies a vast, sun-drenched plateau where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered, defined by the stark, terrestrial beauty of the high desert. It lies 15.0 miles southwest of Jerome, ID (from Jerome, ID: bearing 235°T), and is situated 8.0 miles west-northwest of Filer. The land around Buhl unfolds in expansive fields and sagebrush flats, punctuated by the distant, craggy silhouette of Sunset Butte rising against a sky of unrelenting clarity. Water defines the periphery of this dry expanse, with Clear Creek carving a modest path through the landscape only a mile away, and the stillness of Clear Lake providing a quiet, reflective anchor five miles from the center. Within the immediate footprint of the buildings, Eastman Park offers a modest green reprieve, its grass and shade serving as a gathering point where the hard, bright light of the afternoon softens into the long, golden shadows of dusk.

Agriculture provides the steady pulse of the local economy, as the fertile soils of the nearby Melon Valley have long supported a tradition of intensive farming and dairy production. The history of Buhl is etched into the rows of crops and the methodical irrigation of the plains, reflecting a heritage built on the patience of those who first broke the prairie sod. Everyday life here maintains a deliberate, measured pace, moving in sync with the seasonal demands of the harvest and the quiet cycles of the rural landscape. While the town remains firmly rooted in its agrarian identity, it possesses a distinct, unassuming composure, where the dry, crisp air and the wide-open expanse of the Idaho sky create a sense of place that feels both enduring and remarkably singular.

About This Buhl Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Buhl, Idaho. Coordinates: 42.599071, -114.759495. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Buhl includes the ZIP code (83316), telephone area code (208), county seat of Twin Falls County (Twin Falls), and school district assignment (Buhl Joint School District 412).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
