How to Use This Ulm, Montana Map

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

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.

Ulm is a locality in Cascade County, Montana, United States. It is a small community with a population of 723. The population density is 13.8 people per km². Ulm is located at 47.4214°N, 111.5233°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. ZIP codes: 59485, 59404.

Ulm manifests as a quiet intersection of high prairie and river-wrought earth, defined by the persistent, silken curve of the Missouri River. It lies 10.8 miles west-southwest of Great Falls, MT (from Great Falls, MT: bearing 244°T), and is situated 16.0 miles west-southwest of Malmstrom AFB. The landscape here is one of vast, open horizons where the sky claims more territory than the ground, allowing the light to shift from a pale, bruised gold at dawn to a deep, resonant indigo as the day retreats. Beyond the immediate riverbanks, the terrain levels out into the expanse of the Ulm Flats, a space that feels both indifferent and expansive under the weight of the wide Montana atmosphere. While the jagged, snow-dusted peaks of the Rocky Mountains remain a distant, hazy silhouette against the western edge of the world, the local topography retains a stark, sun-bleached simplicity that demands a patient eye to appreciate its subtle, arid textures.

Ulm Bridge Fishing Access Site serves as the primary gateway to the water, offering a point of connection for those who move through the landscape with a slower, more deliberate purpose. The regional economy remains tethered to the rhythm of the soil and the legacy of the plains, where the labor of agriculture defines the cycle of the seasons and the character of the inhabitants. History here is found not in grand monuments, but in the enduring utility of the land and the quiet resilience of those who cultivate it, far removed from the clamor of denser settlements. Despite the isolation, there is a distinct clarity to the air and an honest quality to the silence, a reminder that Ulm occupies a place where the scale of the earth is intended to humble the human spirit.

About This Ulm Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ulm, Montana. Coordinates: 47.421366, -111.523324. 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 Ulm includes the ZIP code (59485, 59404), telephone area code (406), county seat of Cascade County (Great Falls), and school district assignment (Cascade High 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.
