Explore Epping, 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 Epping, 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 Epping.
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.

Epping anchors itself to the vast, open prairie of North Dakota where the horizon stretches into a pale, endless reach of sky. It lies 15.1 miles northeast of Williston, ND (from Williston, ND: bearing 53°T), and is situated 33.1 miles north of Watford City. The terrain here is defined by a quiet, persistent resilience, characterized by the gentle dip of the land toward Stony Creek, which meanders only a mile from the center of Epping. To the west, the topography begins its slow transition toward the rugged character of the badlands, while the light at dusk settles over the grasses in long, amber strokes that seem to hold the heat of the day against the cooling earth. Beyond the immediate fields, the distant silhouette of Flagstaff Hill breaks the flatness of the skyline, providing a singular point of reference in a landscape that otherwise favors the wide, uninterrupted arc of the heavens.
Epping maintains a steady, deliberate pace of life, tied closely to the agricultural rhythms and the deeper, subterranean pulse of the modern energy economy. The local history remains etched into the vernacular of the plains, where the endurance of the land has shaped a character defined by self-reliance and the pragmatic labor of those who work the soil. Residents often look toward the quiet waters of Epping Dam when the afternoon demands a moment of stillness, or travel toward the more expansive grounds of Lewis And Clark State Park for a broader perspective on the region’s natural heritage. Whether navigating the seasonal demands of harvest or the quiet, frost-bound months of winter, Epping exists as a place where the scale of the earth makes every human endeavor feel both small and remarkably significant.

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.
