Explore Egeland, 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 Egeland, 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 Egeland.
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.

Egeland occupies a quiet expanse of the northern plains where the horizon stretches thin and taut against an enormous, pale sky. It lies 104.4 miles east-northeast of Minot, ND (from Minot, ND: bearing 74°T), and is situated 36.9 miles north-northwest of Devils Lake. The land here holds a singular, meditative stillness, defined by flat, fertile stretches that carry the weight of seasonal shifts in the quality of light, turning from the sharp, brittle clarity of winter to the muted gold of late summer harvest. Just two miles away, the Towner County Waterfowl Production Area provides a sanctuary for migratory birds, its marshy depressions serving as a vital pulse in the landscape. Four miles to the west, Mauvais Coulee marks the earth with a subtle, winding depression, while the waters of Snyder Lake shimmer six miles distant, reflecting the vastness of the clouds in a way that makes the ground feel secondary to the air above.
Agriculture remains the lifeblood of Egeland, as the rhythm of the year is dictated by the slow, deliberate work of the fields and the endurance of those who tend them. History here is written in the grain elevators and the quiet persistence of homesteading legacies, where the economy is bound to the soil and the unpredictable temper of the weather. There is a particular, austere beauty in the way the wind moves through the tall grasses, a soundless vibration that seems to underscore the isolation of the plains. Life in Egeland moves with the steady, unadorned pace of a place that understands its own scale, leaving room for the profound silence that settles over the prairie when the sun dips low and the shadows of the grain silos grow long across the dust.

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.
