Explore Bloomington, Idaho, 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 Bloomington, 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 Bloomington.
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.

Bloomington occupies a quiet expanse of high-altitude terrain where the earth rises in austere, sun-bleached slopes toward the imposing silhouette of Paris Peak. It lies 33.0 miles northeast of Smithfield, UT (from Smithfield, UT: bearing 42°T), and is situated 10.4 miles south-southwest of Montpelier. Bloomington Creek carves a narrow, persistent path through the landscape, its waters feeding the verdant life that clings to the valley floor before the land yields to the expansive, sage-dusted reaches of Little Canyon. The air here holds a sharp, thin clarity that defines the transition between the lowlands and the rugged terrain of the Idaho Department of Lands, a space where the stillness is broken only by the shifting of light across dry grasses. At dusk, the horizon pulls the shadows long and thin, turning the surrounding hills into deep, violet-hued folds that seem to hold the weight of the cooling day.
Settlers arrived in Bloomington during the mid-nineteenth century, carving a life from the soil with a tenacity that remains etched into the local character. Agriculture and the seasonal rhythms of ranching continue to anchor the economy, demanding a disciplined attention to the changing weather and the demands of the land. Residents often look toward the distant shimmer of Bear Lake, which sits as a cool, blue anchor in the broader geography, while those seeking movement traverse the Midland Trail to engage with the wilder edges of the territory. Life in Bloomington moves with the deliberate pace of a place that has long understood the value of endurance, where the labor of the day is measured by the steady, unadorned work of the hands and the quiet persistence of the seasons.

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.
