How to Use This Moose Creek, Alaska Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Moose Creek, 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 Moose Creek.

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.

About Moose Creek, Alaska

Moose Creek is a locality in Fairbanks North Star, Alaska, United States. It is a small community with a population of 534. The population density is 133.8 people per km². Moose Creek is located at 64.7164°N, 147.1666°W. It observes the Alaska Time (America/Anchorage) timezone. ZIP code: 99705.

Moose Creek occupies a stretch of interior earth defined by the persistent, low-slung light of the subarctic and the quiet resilience of the taiga. It lies 13.1 miles east-southeast of Badger, AK (from Badger, AK: bearing 118°T), and is situated 3.4 miles north-northwest of Eielson AFB. The land here holds a stillness that lingers long after the sun dips toward the horizon, casting shadows across dense groves of spruce and wide, scrub-covered flats. To the distant south, the jagged, snow-dusted silhouette of the Alaska Range cuts a sharp line against the sky, a reminder of the immense scale that dictates the rhythm of the wilderness. While the Salcha River flows eighteen miles away, the immediate surroundings of Moose Creek feel dominated by the vast, silent reach of the boreal forest, where the air remains crisp and thin, carrying the scent of pine needles and damp earth.

Newby Park sits just four miles away, offering a small, preserved space for the local flora and fauna to persist without the intrusion of human industry. The history of Moose Creek remains tied to the hard, practical labor of those who carved a life out of this interior expanse, where the economy often relies on the steady heartbeat of regional logistics and the maintenance of essential infrastructure. Life in Moose Creek moves with a deliberate, measured pace, influenced by the seasonal shifts that turn the ground to iron in the winter and carpet the meadows in vibrant, fleeting green come summer. Residents navigate the expansive landscape with a grounded awareness of their isolation, finding a rugged beauty in the simple endurance of a life lived far from the bustle of the world.

About This Moose Creek Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Moose Creek, Alaska. Coordinates: 64.716369, -147.166627. 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 Moose Creek includes the ZIP code (99705), telephone area code (907), county seat of Fairbanks North Star, and school district assignment (Fairbanks North Star Borough School District).

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.
