Explore Livengood, Alaska, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Livengood, Alaska. 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 Alaska 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 Livengood.
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.

Livengood sits amidst a vast, subarctic silence where the low-angled sun casts long, violet shadows across the dense, dark spruce of the taiga. It lies 50.9 miles north-northwest of College, AK (from College, AK: bearing 335°T), and is situated 53.2 miles north-northwest of Fairbanks. The terrain around Livengood is defined by the steady, rhythmic flow of Ruth Creek, which carves its path through the earth, while the rugged, distant peaks of the Brooks Range haunt the northern horizon like a jagged, spectral promise. Seven miles away, the quiet surface of Brown Lake mirrors the immense, unblinking sky, and the proximity to the James Dalton Highway Corridor underscores the stark, industrial isolation of the landscape. Here, the air holds a brittle, crystalline quality that seems to sharpen the senses, turning the simple act of breathing into a conscious acknowledgment of the wild, unyielding scale of the interior.
History pulses through the soil of Livengood, a legacy written in the deep gravels of Alder Gulch where the feverish pursuit of gold once drew prospectors into the wilderness. Today, the economy remains tethered to the land’s stubborn resources, with the rhythmic hum of heavy machinery and the passage of transport trucks echoing the town’s enduring role as a waypoint in the northern frontier. Life here moves according to the demands of the seasons and the heavy, metallic infrastructure that links the remote interior to the wider world. It is a place where the remnants of mining camps fade into the undergrowth, leaving behind a quiet, stoic character that values resilience over adornment, and where the raven remains the most constant observer of the changing light.

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.
