Explore St. Mary's, 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 St. Mary's, 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 St. Mary's.
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.

St. Mary's emerges from the vast, subarctic expanse as a collection of structures held fast against the immensity of the interior wilderness. It lies 439.1 miles west-northwest of Anchorage, AK (from Anchorage, AK: bearing 283°T), and is situated 98.9 miles north-northwest of Bethel. The landscape surrounding St. Mary's is defined by the expansive Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge, a sprawling mosaic of tundra and low-lying brush that stretches toward the horizon. To the east, the Andreafsky Hills rise with a quiet, weathered dignity, their slopes catching the slanted, pale light that characterizes the long, cooling afternoons. Only two miles distant, the Andreafsky River carves a winding path through the silt and earth, its dark waters reflecting the heavy, wide-reaching sky. Here, the air carries a sharp, clean clarity that seems to sharpen the edges of the world, reminding any traveler of the sheer, unyielding scale of the northern plains.
St. Mary's maintains a rhythm informed by the deep history of its indigenous roots and the subsequent arrival of missions that once served as the regional center for education and trade. The local economy persists through a careful alignment with the seasons, where the gathering of resources and the movement of goods via bush plane sustain the daily operations of the inhabitants. Life in St. Mary's is marked by a quiet resilience, as the community functions as a vital hub within the Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge, balancing traditional practices with the modern requirements of a remote interior settlement. The architecture, utilitarian and stout, stands as a testament to the necessity of enduring long winters, while the persistent call of ravens serves as a constant, vocal backdrop to the town's steady, measured pace.

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.
