How to Use This Flaxville, Montana Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Flaxville, 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 Flaxville.
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.

ZIP code: 59222.Flaxville anchors itself upon a vast, high-plains expanse where the horizon stretches thin and taut, a pale line separating the earth from an immense, shifting sky. It lies 84.5 miles west-northwest of Williston, ND (from Williston, ND: bearing 303°T), and is situated 53.7 miles north-northeast of Wolf Point. Middle Fork Eagle Creek traces a quiet, seasonal path just a mile from the center, its banks offering a subtle reprieve from the prevailing grasses that ripple in the wind like a slow-moving tide. To the west, the distant profile of Square Butte rises as a solitary, geometric silhouette against the bruised colors of dusk, while the nearby Daniels County Waterfowl Production Area provides a sanctuary where the air is often filled with the sudden, rhythmic beat of wings. The landscape here does not shout, but rather hums with the steady, patient endurance of a country defined by its openness and the silver-gray light that settles over the fields as the sun retreats.
Settlement in Flaxville grew from the promise of the soil, binding the lives of those who arrived to the cycles of wheat and the quiet labor of the harvest. The local economy remains tethered to this land, a place where the infrastructure of silos and rail lines reflects a history built on the cultivation of the prairie and the endurance of small-scale agriculture. Life in Flaxville follows the pace of the seasons, moving with a deliberate, unadorned gravity that is punctuated by the occasional stillness of Whitetail Reservoir, where the water mirrors the clouds in a perfect, inverted sky. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the terrain dips toward the gentle depression of Goodale Coulee, marking a geography that is sparse, functional, and deeply tied to the rhythms of the people who call this high, open country their own.

About This Flaxville Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Flaxville, Montana. Coordinates: 48.803914, -105.17276. 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 Flaxville includes the ZIP code (59222), telephone area code (406), county seat of Daniels County (Scobey), and school district assignment (Scobey K-12 Schools).
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.
