How to Use This Hadley, Minnesota Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Hadley, Minnesota. 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 Minnesota 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 Hadley.

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.

Hadley sits amidst a vast, quiet expanse of southwestern Minnesota prairie where the horizon line remains unbroken by anything save for the occasional silhouette of a grain elevator. It lies 29.3 miles north-northwest of Worthington, MN (from Worthington, MN: bearing 334°T), and is situated 5.0 miles west of Slayton. The land here stretches out in long, flattened swells, an ancient glacial imprint that gives the earth a rhythmic, tectonic patience. Two miles to the east, Beaver Creek carves a shallow, meandering path through the loamy soil, its waters moving with a deliberate, muddy sluggishness that reflects the pale, wide-reaching sky. To the west, the subtle depression of Beauty Lakebed suggests a history of water long since receded, while the gentle rise of Poverty Hill marks the only variation in an otherwise unrelenting flatness. Sunlight in this part of the world possesses a sharp, clinical clarity, sharpening the shadows of the cornstalks and turning the mid-afternoon air into a shimmering, golden haze that feels heavy with the scent of dry grass and turned earth.

Agriculture defines the pulse of Hadley, as the economy remains tethered to the cycles of planting and harvest that have dictated the pace of life since the village first took root upon these plains. The nearby Peters State Wildlife Management Area provides a sanctuary for migratory birds and local fauna, serving as a reminder of the wilder, uncultivated character of the landscape that existed before the plow. While Moon Lake rests five miles away, offering a local gathering point for those seeking the stillness of open water, the daily life of the residents remains focused on the maintenance of the fields and the endurance of the long, biting winters. Hadley endures as a place of sparse, honest architecture, where the wind acts as a constant companion and the social fabric is held together by the quiet persistence of those who choose to live where the sky occupies more of the world than the ground.

About This Hadley Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hadley, Minnesota. Coordinates: 44.001076, -95.853905. 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 Hadley includes the ZIP code (56151), telephone area code (320), county seat of Murray County (Slayton), and school district assignment (Murray County Central 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.
