Explore Beulah, North Dakota, 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 Beulah, 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 Beulah.
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.

Beulah occupies a vast expanse of the northern plains, where the horizon stretches wide enough to swallow the sun in a single, lingering swallow. It lies 51.6 miles northwest of Mandan, ND (from Mandan, ND: bearing 306°T), and is situated 7.6 miles west-southwest of Hazen. The landscape surrounding Beulah consists of expansive, wind-swept prairie that yields to the subtle depressions of the Williston Basin, a geological bowl that hints at the deep, ancient layers beneath the soil. Only a mile away, the Knife River carves a deliberate path through the grass, its waters moving with a quiet, persistent gravity that defines the local topography. To the west, the faint, distant silhouette of London Bridge marks the edge of the visible world, while the expansive grounds of Unknown Park provide a quiet threshold where the cultivated fields meet the untamed, open air. In the late afternoon, the light here acquires a peculiar, honeyed thickness, turning the dry stalks of the prairie into a shimmering, metallic gold that seems to vibrate against the cooling blue of the sky.
Beulah remains tethered to the rhythm of energy production, its economy deeply intertwined with the lignite coal reserves that have long shaped the character of the region. This industry serves as a steady pulse for the inhabitants, grounding the daily existence of the people in the physical labor of extraction and power generation. The history of the area is written in the grit of the earth and the resilience of those who settled this challenging, inland terrain, far from the reach of any moderating water. Life in Beulah proceeds with a deliberate, unadorned honesty, marked by the changing seasons that dictate the pace of work and the quiet solitude of the long winters. Fourteen miles to the north, the presence of Lake Sakakawea serves as a distant, glassy anchor in the landscape, reflecting the immense, cloud-streaked sky that hangs over every roof and road in the vicinity.

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.
