Explore West Glendive, Montana, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for West Glendive, 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 West Glendive.
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.

West Glendive occupies a stark, expansive stretch of the high plains where the horizon exerts a gravitational pull on the spirit. It lies 88.9 miles southwest of Williston, ND (from Williston, ND: bearing 217°T), and is situated 1.8 miles west-northwest of Glendive. Dry Creek carves a persistent, winding path through the local topography, its presence a seasonal reminder of the water that dictates the rhythm of the soil. Beyond the immediate flatlands, the landscape rises toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Big Sheep Mountains, which anchor the western view in shades of bruised violet and slate. Nearby, the water of Crisafulli Lake reflects the immense, unclouded sky, providing a quiet basin that contrasts with the rugged, arid character of the surrounding terrain. Within the immediate vicinity, West Glendive Park offers a sparse, open expanse of green that serves as a communal pause in a region defined by its vast, uninterrupted reach.
Industry in West Glendive remains tethered to the pulse of the earth, echoing the historical patterns of transit and resource management that have long defined this corridor of the plains. The proximity to Graveyard Coulee and the rugged routes carved by early travelers suggest a place shaped by the necessity of moving through, rather than merely settling upon, the land. Today, the economy leans into the quiet persistence of agricultural support and regional logistics, maintaining a pace that favors endurance over urgency. For those inclined toward the terrain, the Cap Rock Nature Trail offers a measured way to traverse the local geology, revealing the layers of silt and stone that tell the deeper story of this high, dry country. Life here unfolds with a deliberate clarity, characterized by the sharp, clean light of the plains and the enduring silence that settles over the prairie once the sun dips below the far edge of the world.

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.
