How to Use This Killdeer, North Dakota Map

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

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.

Killdeer emerges from the high, open prairie as a collection of structures held fast against the immense, restless sky of the western plains. It lies 34.1 miles north of Dickinson, ND (from Dickinson, ND: bearing 3°T), and is situated 38.6 miles southeast of Watford City. The ground around Killdeer possesses a stark, tectonic honesty, defined by the slow movement of earth that pushes into the subtle rises of the landscape, while the horizon is anchored by the blue-shadowed presence of the Killdeer Mountains ten miles to the west. Gumbo Creek carves a thin, seasonal vein through the soil just a mile from the center, its banks reflecting the shifting, bruised colors of a twilight that seems to linger for hours. Nearby, the quiet surface of Lake Ilo provides a still point in the vastness, its water attracting migratory birds that punctuate the silence with sudden, sharp cries.

Killdeer carries the weight of a history rooted in the hard, deliberate labor of ranching and the cyclical booms of the energy industry, which pulse through the economy like a rhythmic, subterranean heartbeat. The presence of the Lake Ilo National Wildlife Refuge preserves a necessary wildness, reminding those who walk its paths that the land remains indifferent to the changing machinery of human ambition. Life in Killdeer follows the pace of the seasons, moving from the biting, crystalline clarity of winter to the dusty, sun-bleached heat of late summer. Residents navigate their days with a quiet, pragmatic focus, finding a particular beauty in the way the morning light catches the dry grasses, turning the expansive fields into a shimmering, pale gold.

About This Killdeer Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Killdeer, North Dakota. Coordinates: 47.371958, -102.754075. 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 Killdeer includes the ZIP code (58640), telephone area code (701), county seat of Dunn County (Manning), and school district assignment (Killdeer Public School District 16).

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.
