How to Use This Gilmanton, Wisconsin Map

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

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 Gilmanton, Wisconsin

Gilmanton is a locality in Buffalo County, Wisconsin, United States. It is a small community with a population of 155. The population density is 17.9 people per km². Gilmanton is located at 44.4809°N, 91.6721°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 54755, 54743.

Gilmanton anchors itself firmly within the quiet, unglaciated folds of Lee Valley, where the land rises in deliberate, ancient swells. It lies 24.4 miles south-southeast of Dunn, WI (from Dunn, WI: bearing 149°T), and is situated 6.7 miles south of Mondovi. Elk Creek carves a path through the valley floor, its waters moving with a steady, rhythmic patience that dictates the pace of the surrounding countryside. Beyond the immediate banks, the landscape gains elevation toward the silhouette of Montana Ridge, which defines the horizon in a steady, protective arc. As dusk settles, the light loses its sharp edge, softening against the limestone bluffs and casting long, indigo shadows that stretch across the damp, fertile soil of the fields.

Agriculture remains the pulse of Gilmanton, a legacy of the German and Scandinavian settlers who cleared the timber to make room for dairy barns and sprawling pastures. The economy here is measured in the seasonal turn of crops and the quiet industry of family-run operations that have persisted for generations. Residents often look toward the Buffalo River State Trail for recreation, a narrow artery of wilderness that connects the local rhythm to the broader, rugged terrain of the region. Though Mirror Lake lies a few miles away, life in Gilmanton stays tethered to the intimate geography of the valley, where the air smells of turned earth and the stillness is broken only by the low hum of distant machinery or the seasonal migration of birds across the open, unobstructed sky.

About This Gilmanton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Gilmanton, Wisconsin. Coordinates: 44.480867, -91.672104. 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 Gilmanton includes the ZIP code (54755, 54743), telephone area code (715), county seat of Buffalo County (Alma), and school district assignment (Gilmanton School District).

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.
