Explore Guilford, Maine, 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 Guilford, Maine. 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 Maine 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 Guilford.
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.

Guilford asserts its presence upon the rugged interior landscape, defined primarily by the persistent, dark currents of the Piscataquis River that carve a path through the earth. It lies 39.0 miles northwest of Bangor, ME (from Bangor, ME: bearing 311°T), and is situated 7.7 miles west of Dover-Foxcroft. The local terrain is characterized by a dense, temperate woodland that shifts in hue from the deep, melancholic greens of spruce and fir to the brilliant, fleeting gold of hardwoods as the seasons turn. Only a mile away, the quiet surface of Manhanock Pond mirrors the expansive sky, offering a stillness that persists even when the wind stirs the higher canopy. On the distant horizon, the Longfellow Mountains trace a faint, jagged line against the atmosphere, a reminder of the vast, unyielding geography that stretches far beyond the immediate valley. The air here carries a sharp, clean clarity, particularly during the transition of dusk when the light thins and the shadows of the timber lengthen across the uneven ground.
Guilford maintains an identity forged by the labor of the mills and the quiet endurance of those who carved a life from the northern woods. The economy has long pivoted on the ingenuity of wood products and manufacturing, reflecting a history where the rhythm of production harmonized with the seasonal cycles of the surrounding wilderness. Life proceeds with a deliberate, measured pace, far removed from the frantic pulse of larger urban centers, shaped instead by the proximity to the Town Forest, where five miles of managed land offer a reprieve into the wild. While the distant Beetham Swale marks the broader topography, the focus of Guilford remains centered on its own immediate, industrious reality. The legacy of its founding persists in the solid, unadorned architecture that lines the streets, where the daily activities of the residents continue to anchor the region in a tradition of self-reliance and local connection.

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.
