How to Use This Fox, Montana Map

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

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 Fox, Montana

Fox is a locality in Carbon County, Montana, United States. It is a small community with a population of 100. The population density is 13.1 people per km². Fox is located at 45.2884°N, 109.2125°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. ZIP code: 59070.

Fox emerges from the high plains as a quiet intersection of earth and sky, defined by the persistent, silver-threaded movement of Rock Creek carving its way through the local terrain. It lies 49.3 miles southwest of Billings, MT (from Billings, MT: bearing 225°T), and is situated 6.5 miles north-northeast of Red Lodge. The horizon to the west is dominated by the jagged, snow-dusted silhouettes of the Beartooth Mountains, which anchor the view and dictate the cooling patterns of the evening air. Beyond the immediate banks of the creek, the landscape stretches into the expansive, sun-bleached expanse of Dry Creek Basin, where the wind carries the scent of dry sage and cured grasses. Closer to the water, the Bull Springs Fishing Access Site offers a rare point of stillness, allowing the traveler to observe how the light shifts from a sharp, metallic gold to a deep, bruised violet as the sun dips behind the distant peaks.

Fox maintains a rhythm dictated by the seasons and the demands of a rural economy rooted in the resilience of the soil. The land here, lying within the shadow of the Custer National Forest - Beartooth Division, has long supported those who work the fences and the fields, turning the rugged geography into a life of measured labor. While the silence of the plains often suggests a place left behind by time, the proximity to the East Parks Ski Trail and the hidden, still waters of Bidstrip Reservoir speaks to a landscape that remains vital and active for those who know how to read its paths. Life in Fox is marked by these immense, open distances, where the isolation is not a void but a clarity, allowing the architecture of the natural world to assert itself over the minor footprints of human industry.

About This Fox Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fox, Montana. Coordinates: 45.288417, -109.212489. 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 Fox includes the ZIP code (59070), telephone area code (406), county seat of Carbon County (Red Lodge), and school district assignment (Red Lodge Elementary 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.
