How to Use This Binford, North Dakota Map

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

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.

Binford occupies a vast, horizontal expanse of the high plains where the sky holds more weight than the earth itself. It lies 48.1 miles north-northeast of Jamestown, ND (from Jamestown, ND: bearing 21°T), and is situated 45.3 miles south-southeast of Devils Lake. The landscape around Binford is defined by the subtle, rhythmic swell of the prairie, a terrain that stretches toward the horizon in shades of pale straw and deep, bruised iron. Two miles away, the quiet surface of Lake Jessie reflects the shifting clouds, while the distant, solitary silhouette of Butte Michaud anchors the western skyline like a forgotten sentinel. Air here possesses a crisp, sharpened clarity, often carrying the faint, dry scent of ripening wheat even when the fields themselves are out of sight.

Agriculture remains the singular pulse of Binford, with the local economy rooted deeply in the cycles of sowing and harvest that dictate the pace of the year. The proximity of the Griggs County Waterfowl Production Area serves as a sanctuary for migratory life, reinforcing the region's connection to the wilder, unplowed corners of the state. Beyond the town limits, the slow, meandering path of Baldhill Creek cuts through the terrain six miles away, carving a modest vein through the black soil that has supported settlers for generations. Life in Binford moves with a quiet, deliberate intent, shaped by the practical demands of the land and a persistent, stoic endurance against the wide, open wind.
