How to Use This Upham, North Dakota Map

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

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.

Upham emerges from the vast, treeless expanse of the North Dakota prairie like a quiet gathering of iron and timber against an immense, bruising sky. It lies 35.5 miles northeast of Minot, ND (from Minot, ND: bearing 47°T), and is situated 29.6 miles east-northeast of Minot AFB. The horizon stretches thin and flat, broken only by the rhythmic rise and fall of the terrain that leads toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Henderson Hills. Nearby, the water of Cut Bank Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the soil, offering a brief, reflective pause in the endless reach of grass. When the sun hangs low, the light stretches across the earth in long, amber fingers, illuminating the stark, utilitarian beauty of the landscape that surrounds Upham.

Life here remains tethered to the patient cycles of the soil, with a local economy deeply rooted in the seasonal demands of agriculture and the stewardship of the land. The J. Clark Salyer National Wildlife Refuge serves as a vital neighbor, where the quiet migration of birds often punctuates the silence of the plains more sharply than the hum of machinery. While the residents look toward the distant, shimmering surface of Unit 320 Reservoir as a point of local orientation, the true character of the place is defined by the resilience required to thrive in such an exposed climate. History clings to the weathered grain of the older structures, mirroring the stoic, unadorned nature of those who have made a life where the wind acts as the primary architect of the day.
