How to Use This Belcourt, North Dakota Map

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

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.

Belcourt emerges from the expanse of the high plains where the horizon stretches wide and unyielding under a sky that dwarfs all human endeavor. It lies 82.4 miles east-northeast of Minot, ND (from Minot, ND: bearing 59°T), and is situated 34.5 miles north-northeast of Rugby. Ox Creek winds its path through the terrain, a quiet, insistent ribbon of water that traces the contours of the earth before the ground rises toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Turtle Mountains. Not far from the stillness of Martin Lake, the land shifts from open grass to the sheltered pockets of the Rolette County Waterfowl Production Area, where the air holds the sharp, metallic scent of coming frost even in the height of summer. The light here arrives thin and pale at dawn, catching the dormant fiber of the prairie grasses until the entire landscape glows with the muted gold of a long-faded photograph.

Belcourt remains deeply anchored in the heritage of the Ojibwe people, serving as a center for the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians. The economy moves with the steady pulse of local governance and educational initiatives, particularly those centered around the tribal college that shapes the intellectual life of the plains. History is not a ghost here but a living presence, felt in the deliberate pace of those navigating the gravel roads and the resilience required to thrive in a climate that demands much from its inhabitants. Beyond the reach of the Shell Valley, the rhythm of daily life is dictated by the turning of the seasons and the enduring connection to the soil, creating a quiet gravity that keeps the spirit of the region tethered to the land.

About This Belcourt Map Page

Detailed location data for Belcourt includes the ZIP code (58316), telephone area code (701), county seat of Rolette County (Rolla), and school district assignment (Belcourt Public School District 7).

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.
