How to Use This Heimdal, North Dakota Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Heimdal, 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 Heimdal.
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.

About Heimdal, North Dakota
Heimdal is a locality in Wells County, North Dakota, United States. It is a small community with a population of 16. The population density is 13.1 people per km². Heimdal is located at 47.7928°N, 99.6451°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 58341.Heimdal occupies a quiet expanse of North Dakota prairie where the horizon pulls the eye toward an immense, pale sky. It lies 75.1 miles northwest of Jamestown, ND (from Jamestown, ND: bearing 325°T), and is situated 33.9 miles northwest of Carrington. The Big Slough carves a narrow, winding path through the local terrain, its presence marked by the shifting grasses that turn from deep emerald in the spring to a brittle, sun-bleached gold by late autumn. To the west, the distant silhouette of Butte de Morale rises like a solitary sentinel above the flat expanse, while the nearby Mcdonald offers a refuge of native flora that persists against the persistent, wandering wind. When the light dips low at dusk, the landscape loses its rigid edges, softening into long, violet shadows that stretch across the fields and settle into the quiet depressions of the earth.
Heimdal maintains a steady, deliberate pace defined by the seasonal cycles of grain and the deep roots of agricultural tradition. The economy remains tethered to the productivity of the surrounding soil, a legacy that echoes the labor of those who first broke the sod to establish a life on the plains. Residents often look toward the gentle depressions of Big Coulee or the quiet waters of Zumpf Lake to gauge the health of the land, recognizing that their fortunes remain bound to the temperament of the seasons. Despite the diminishment of its original rail-bound prosperity, Heimdal endures through a quiet persistence, where the social fabric is held together by the simple, enduring habit of neighborly reliance and the shared observation of the changing clouds.

Detailed location data for Heimdal includes the ZIP code (58341), telephone area code (701), county seat of Wells County (Fessenden), and school district assignment (Fessenden-Bowdon Public School District 25).
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.
