How to Use This Wabasso, Minnesota Map

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

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.

Wabasso occupies a wide, level expanse of the high plains, where the horizon stretches thin and flat against a sky that seems to possess more depth than the earth itself. It lies 26.5 miles east of Marshall, MN (from Marshall, MN: bearing 97°T), and is situated 11.7 miles southwest of Redwood Falls. Fields of corn and soybean grid the landscape in precise, geometric patterns, broken only by the thin, silver thread of County Ditch Number Seventythree that winds its way through the soil like a vein. In the quiet transition of dusk, the light loses its harshness, turning the stubble of the fields into a pale, burnished gold that catches the chill air. To the west, the distant silhouette of Middag Knutea marks the edge of the known world, a faint rise that reminds the traveler of the vast, ancient geology underlying these quiet, productive acres.

Wabasso emerged from the deep, fertile loam of the prairie, a settlement built on the steady, methodical labor of those who turned the sod and harnessed the rhythm of the changing seasons. The local economy remains anchored to this agricultural heritage, with grain elevators rising as the prominent, industrial spires of the skyline, overseeing a commerce defined by the harvest. Beyond the immediate reach of the main roads, the landscape softens toward the Daub's Lake State Wildlife Management Area, where the native grasses reclaim their territory and offer a sanctuary from the order of the plowed earth. Life in Wabasso follows the slow, deliberate pulse of the changing seasons, a persistence that remains indifferent to the frantic pace of the modern world, anchored instead by the enduring cycle of planting and the quiet, snow-heavy stillness of a long winter.

About This Wabasso Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Wabasso, Minnesota. Coordinates: 44.401902, -95.255833. 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 Wabasso includes the ZIP code (56293), telephone area code (320), county seat of Redwood County (Redwood Falls), and school district assignment (Wabasso 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.
