How to Use This Grano, North Dakota Map

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

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.

Grano occupies a vast, hushed expanse of the northern plains where the horizon stretches thin and taut against an enormous, pale sky. It lies 29.6 miles north-northwest of Minot, ND (from Minot, ND: bearing 333°T), and is situated 17.9 miles northwest of Minot AFB. The land here is defined by a rhythmic, glacial patience, shifting from sun-bleached grasses to the dark, riparian thickets that cling to the banks of the Souris River. Just a mile to the west, the waters of Lake Darling hold the reflection of the clouds with a mirror-like stillness, creating a divide between the solid earth and the infinite overhead. In the quiet hours of dusk, the light loses its sharp edge, washing the prairie in shades of violet and bruised gold, casting long, thin shadows that seem to anchor Grano to the ancient, undisturbed soil.

History in Grano remains tied to the cycles of the earth and the perseverance of those who carved a life from the persistent wind. The local economy persists as a quiet dialogue between the heavy machinery of agriculture and the seasonal shifts of the land, with the nearby Upper Souris National Wildlife Refuge providing a sanctuary for the migratory life that defines the region’s pulse. While the bustle of larger commerce feels distant, the daily life of Grano moves with a steady, deliberate gravity, marked by the arrival of storms across the plains and the occasional migration of waterfowl overhead. Far to the south, the distant silhouette of Murphy Hill serves as a silent, fixed reference point for a landscape that otherwise feels as if it might drift away into the immense, open air.

About This Grano Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Grano, North Dakota. Coordinates: 48.61502, -101.586551. 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 Grano includes the ZIP code (58750), telephone area code (701), county seat of Renville County (Mohall), and school district assignment (Mohall-Lansford-Sherwood Public School District 1).

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.
