How to Use This Edgemont, South Dakota Map

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

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.

Edgemont occupies a rugged expanse where the high plains meet the weathered transition toward the western highlands, defined by the persistent, winding path of Cottonwood Creek as it carves through the local terrain. It lies 61.5 miles south-southwest of Rapid City, SD (from Rapid City, SD: bearing 209°T), and is situated 19.8 miles west-southwest of Hot Springs. The air here holds a thin, crystalline clarity, sharpening the outlines of the scrub brush and sandstone outcrops that define the local topography. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Seven Sisters Range provide a jagged, purple-hued backdrop against the vast prairie sky, while the proximity to the Buffalo Gap National Grassland ensures a landscape dominated by open, sweeping vistas and the quiet endurance of native grasses. Sunlight at dusk catches the minerals in the soil, turning the earth into a mosaic of ochre and burnt sienna, an effect that renders the surroundings both austere and strangely luminous.

Edgemont carries the echoes of an industrious past, having grown from the expansion of rail lines that once moved the heavy output of local mineral extraction and regional ranching. The rhythms of the local economy remain tethered to this legacy of resourcefulness, where the nearby White Draw and the slightly more distant Fiddle Creek Reservoir serve as quiet markers in an environment shaped by long-term stewardship of the land. Life in Edgemont unfolds with a deliberate, steady pace, reflecting a culture that values the resilience required to thrive in a climate of dramatic shifts. Whether it is the persistence of the rail-centered history or the quiet operation of modern local enterprise, the character of the place is etched by the simple necessity of adapting to the wide, unyielding horizon.

About This Edgemont Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Edgemont, South Dakota. Coordinates: 43.301084, -103.825476. 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 Edgemont includes the ZIP code (57735), telephone area code (605), county seat of Fall River County (Hot Springs), and school district assignment (Edgemont School District 23-1).

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.
