Explore Pease, Minnesota, 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 Pease, 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 Pease.
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.

Pease emerges from the flat, expansive horizon of central Minnesota as a collection of sturdy structures anchored to the earth by deep-rooted agricultural traditions. It lies 22.2 miles west-northwest of Cambridge, MN (from Cambridge, MN: bearing 293°T), and is situated 9.4 miles north-northwest of Princeton. The landscape surrounding Pease is characterized by broad, fertile plains that stretch toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Blue Hill, creating a vast sky that seems to press down with a heavy, pale clarity during the long, quiet afternoons. Two miles to the east, the Rum River carves a serpentine path through the terrain, its dark, deliberate waters moving with the steady persistence of a region defined by its inland isolation. Further afield, the landscape shifts into the dense, shadowed greenery of the Rum River State Forest, while the nearby presence of Unknown Park offers a quiet expanse of untamed prairie and brush where the wind carries the dry scent of goldenrod and cooling soil.
Agriculture remains the silent pulse of Pease, where the rhythm of the seasons dictates the pace of life and the changing colors of the horizon. Historically shaped by the labor of settlers who broke the thick sod to establish orderly rows of crops, the local economy continues to rely on the productivity of the surrounding fields and the disciplined management of land that has been worked for generations. Though the modern world encroaches through the quiet hum of traffic on nearby routes, the essence of the place remains fixed in the methodical work of the harvest and the persistent chill that settles in as winter approaches. Residents often find their way toward the quiet shores of Mud Lake, seven miles away, where the water mirrors the shifting gray and amber clouds, providing a solitary space to observe the slow, deliberate transition of the seasons that defines the character of the land.

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.
