How to Use This Holloway, Minnesota Map

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

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.

Holloway sits upon a vast, level expanse of the high prairie, where the horizon stretches thin and taut against a sky that dictates the mood of every season. It lies 43.0 miles west-northwest of Willmar, MN (from Willmar, MN: bearing 282°T), and is situated 15.7 miles west-southwest of Benson. The earth here is a deep, dark loam, flattened by the slow retreat of ancient ice and groomed by the persistent, scouring winds that rush across the plains without obstruction. To the west, the landscape is punctuated by the modest flow of the Pomme de Terre River, a watercourse that carves a quiet, serpentine path through the fields, while the distant, hazy silhouette of the Antelope Hills remains a faint suggestion against the western edge of the world. Even on the clearest days, the light over Holloway possesses a brittle, crystalline quality, turning the golden stubble of the harvested fields into a shimmering, metallic bronze as the sun dips low.

Agriculture remains the singular pulse of the region, with grain elevators rising like secular cathedrals above the grid of streets, marking the intersection of iron rails and fertile soil. The history of Holloway is written in the furrowed rows of corn and soy, an economy forged by generations who understood the unforgiving cycle of the long, deep winters and the short, intense growing seasons. Beyond the cultivated grid, the Persen State Wildlife Management Area offers a sanctuary of native grasses and quiet sloughs, providing a stark contrast to the structured rows of the surrounding farmland. Travelers passing through might find the stillness near Shible Lake a welcome respite, where the water catches the gray, shifting clouds and reflects a silence that has defined this corner of the plains since the first homesteaders broke the sod.

About This Holloway Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Holloway, Minnesota. Coordinates: 45.248572, -95.9081. 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 Holloway includes the ZIP code (56249, 56208), telephone area code (320), county seat of Swift County (Benson), and school district assignment (Lac Qui Parle Valley 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.
