How to Use This Red Lake Falls, Minnesota Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Red Lake Falls, 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 Red Lake Falls.

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.

Red Lake Falls holds the convergence of the Clearwater River within its deep, glacial-cut valley, where the water carves a serpentine path through the surrounding prairie landscape. It lies 35.3 miles east of Grand Forks, ND (from Grand Forks, ND: bearing 95°T), and is situated 16.9 miles south-southwest of Thief River Falls. The terrain here feels patient and settled, a expanse of fertile soil that stretches toward the distant, faint silhouette of the Altamont Moraine. Two miles to the north, the quiet surface of Seiger Group Pond mirrors the expansive prairie sky, catching the sharp, golden light of late afternoon. While the winters bring a profound, hushed stillness that blankets the fields in heavy white, the summer air carries the scent of warming earth and grasses, grounding the senses in a geography defined by the slow, persistent work of water against stone.

Red Lake Falls emerged from the confluence of timber and agriculture, its early character shaped by the steady labor of those who recognized the value of the valley’s abundant resources. The local economy remains tethered to the rhythm of the harvest, with vast fields radiating outward to support a life that values consistency and the quiet endurance of small-scale industry. Four miles away, the Huot State Wildlife Management Area offers a protected reach of habitat where the native landscape remains undisturbed, serving as a reminder of the region’s original, untamed character. Life in Red Lake Falls moves with the measured pace of the seasons, where the evening shadows lengthen across the riverbanks and the community turns inward as the light fades, finding a subtle, enduring grace in the simple continuity of the land.

About This Red Lake Falls Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Red Lake Falls, Minnesota. Coordinates: 47.88219, -96.274214. 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 Red Lake Falls includes the ZIP code (56750), telephone area code (320), county seat of Red Lake County (Red Lake Falls), and school district assignment (Red Lake Falls Public 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.
