Explore Selfridge, 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 Selfridge, 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 Selfridge.
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.

Selfridge sits exposed to the wide, indifferent pull of the North Dakota prairie, where the horizon stretches thin and taut against a sky that occupies more of the world than the earth itself. It lies 53.4 miles south of Bismarck, ND (from Bismarck, ND: bearing 187°T), and is situated 54.3 miles south of Mandan. The landscape here is defined by a stern, geologic patience, marked by the nearby Porcupine Hills that rise like weathered knuckles against the fading light of dusk. Porcupine Creek carves a narrow, rhythmic path through the dry grasses just a mile from the center, its bed sometimes holding the reflection of clouds and sometimes nothing but the bleached white of river stone. When the wind moves over the ground, it carries the scent of dust and cured hay, a dry air that holds the heat of the day long after the sun has dipped below the rim of the plains.
Selfridge remains tied to the slow, seasonal pulse of agriculture, a place where the economy is written in the cycle of planting and the quiet maintenance of fence lines. The town carries the weight of history in its unassuming grid, a settlement born of the expansion of the rail and the resilience of those who arrived to carve a living from the stubborn soil. Eight miles away, the quiet waters of the Froelich Dam offer a rare, still depth in the landscape, while the distant, shallow expanse of Little Heart Flats serves as a reminder of the region’s ancient, glacial drainage. Life here moves without pretense, shaped by the practical demands of a rural existence and the long, quiet nights that turn the prairie into a vast, dark sea of stars.

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.
