Explore Stewart, 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 Stewart, 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 Stewart.
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.

Stewart occupies a wide, level horizon where the sky claims more territory than the earth, stretching over the flat, fertile plains of the upper Midwest. It lies 12.6 miles south-southwest of Hutchinson, MN (from Hutchinson, MN: bearing 207°T), and is situated 16.7 miles west of Glencoe. The landscape remains defined by the persistent, quiet presence of Buffalo Creek and the stillness of Round Grove Lake, both of which trace the edge of the local geography with subtle, watery lines. Beyond the immediate fields, the terrain dips toward the low, hidden depression of Halls Lakebed, a remnant of ancient glacial shifts that carved the surrounding soil. When the late afternoon sun hangs low, the light flattens against the stubble of the harvested fields, turning the dusty air a pale, bruised violet that seems to hold the very weight of the coming winter.
Stewart grew from the iron-willed efforts of those who saw the potential in the deep, black loam, establishing an economy anchored firmly to the cycles of the harvest and the movement of grain. The rhythm of daily life here follows the slow, deliberate pace of the seasons, shaped by a history of industrious settlers who built their foundations upon the bedrock of agriculture. While the nearby Miscellaneous SRMA offers a quiet expanse of preserved prairie, the town itself maintains a pragmatic character, focused on the steady preservation of its legacy and the maintenance of its modest, solid infrastructure. Residents move through the day with an understated resilience, acknowledging the vast, open space that separates them from the frantic pulse of larger centers, content to let the wind carry the scent of dry grass and turned earth across the plains.

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.
