How to Use This Arnegard, North Dakota Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Arnegard, North Dakota. 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 North Dakota 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 Arnegard.

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.

Arnegard emerges from the sweeping, golden expanse of the North Dakota plains, defined by the quiet persistence of Timber Creek as it carves a path through the earth. It lies 24.8 miles south-southeast of Williston, ND (from Williston, ND: bearing 161°T), and is situated 7.3 miles west of Watford City. The horizon remains vast and unencumbered, drawing the eye toward the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Achenbach Hills that anchor the western edge of the vista. A few miles to the east, the stillness of Arnegard Dam catches the fleeting violet hues of twilight, reflecting a sky that feels heavier and more profound than any canopy of trees. The air here holds a crisp, dry clarity, carrying the scent of wild grasses and the faint, earthy musk of the open prairie that stretches toward the Little Missouri National Grassland.

History lingers in the soil of Arnegard, a legacy forged by homesteaders who sought permanence amidst the shifting currents of the Bakken oil patch. The modern economy pulses with the rhythmic mechanical heartbeat of energy extraction, yet the rhythms of the day remain tethered to the slow, deliberate work of agriculture that has sustained the land for generations. Life in Arnegard moves with an understated dignity, where the harsh winters and the intense heat of summer demand a stoic resilience from those who remain. Beyond the industrial hum, the landscape offers a profound sense of solitude, a place where the weight of the enormous sky reminds every traveler of the enduring, rugged character inherent to this northern terrain.

About This Arnegard Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Arnegard, North Dakota. Coordinates: 47.807797, -103.441027. 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 Arnegard includes the ZIP code (58835), telephone area code (701), county seat of McKenzie County (Watford City), and school district assignment (McKenzie County Public School District 1).

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.
