How to Use This Bucyrus, North Dakota Map

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

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.

Bucyrus anchors itself to the vast, undulating prairie where the horizon stretches thin and taut like a pulled wire. It lies 56.3 miles south of Dickinson, ND (from Dickinson, ND: bearing 180°T), and is situated 95.7 miles south-southwest of Beulah. Flat Creek carves a shallow, rhythmic path through the earth nearby, its banks often dry or hushed, guiding the eye toward the distant, solitary rise of Wolf Butte. The sky here holds an immense, pale clarity that seems to press down upon the grasses, bleaching the color from the stalks until they shimmer with a brittle, metallic luster under the midday sun. Beyond the immediate reach of the soil, the terrain opens into the expansive reaches of the Grand River National Grassland, where the wind moves with an unhindered, restless energy across the plains.

Bucyrus emerged from the ambition of the railroad era, a small knot of human endeavor tied to the movement of grain and the persistence of dryland farming. The local economy remains tethered to the slow, seasonal pulse of the harvest, where the livelihood of the residents is measured in bushels and the patient tending of cattle. Life in Bucyrus proceeds with a quiet, deliberate gravity, far removed from the clamor of the industrial centers, yet deeply connected to the land’s stubborn resilience. Those who remain here possess an intimate knowledge of the changing light, watching as the shadows lengthen over the fallow fields and the stars assert their brilliance over a landscape that asks for little but offers a profound, solitary peace to those willing to listen.

About This Bucyrus Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Bucyrus, North Dakota. Coordinates: 46.063895, -102.788214. 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 Bucyrus includes the ZIP code (58639), telephone area code (701), county seat of Adams County (Hettinger), and school district assignment (Hettinger Public School District 13).

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.
