How to Use This Camas, Montana Map

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

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.

About Camas, Montana

Camas is a locality in Sanders County, Montana, United States. It is a small community with a population of 57. The population density is 40.2 people per km². Camas is located at 47.6180°N, 114.6579°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. ZIP code: 59845.

Camas emerges from the earth as a series of quiet, sun-bleached undulations where the land stretches toward the horizon in shades of sage and pale amber. It lies 43.0 miles south-southwest of Kalispell, MT (from Kalispell, MT: bearing 202°T), and is situated 23.6 miles west-southwest of Polson. Hot Springs Creek carves a persistent, narrow path through the dust and dry grass, its presence marked by the deeper green of willows that crowd the banks. To the west, the distant, jagged teeth of the Rocky Mountains catch the low light of evening, casting long, bruised shadows across the floor of the valley. A few miles away, the stillness of Schmitz Lakes offers a glassy contrast to the moving water, while the expansive Montana State Trust Lands provide a vast, open buffer where the wind hums against the fence lines without interruption.

Camas persists as a place defined by the slow, deliberate work of those who tend to the soil and the livestock that move across the range. The local economy remains tethered to the rhythms of ranching and the stewardship of the land, drawing a rugged character from the nearby reaches of the Thompson River State Forest. History here is written in the fading paint of old timber structures and the deep, silent ruts of dirt roads that lead toward the mouth of Garcon Gulch. Life in Camas moves with the deliberate pace of the seasons, demanding a sturdy patience from its inhabitants, who recognize that the beauty of the region is found in the immense, uncrowded distance between one cluster of light and the next.

About This Camas Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Camas, Montana. Coordinates: 47.617993, -114.657908. 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 Camas includes the ZIP code (59845), telephone area code (406), county seat of Sanders County (Thompson Falls), and school district assignment (Hot Springs K-12).

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.
