How to Use This Montfort, Wisconsin Map

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

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.

Montfort rises from the unglaciated terrain of southwestern Wisconsin, where the earth holds a jagged, ancient patience beneath the sky. It lies 12.5 miles east of Grant, WI (from Grant, WI: bearing 80°T), and is situated 18.2 miles west of Iowa. The landscape shifts in a series of ridges and deep, verdant depressions, defined by the slow erosion that spared this region from the leveling touch of prehistoric ice. A mile away, the waters of Badger Hollow Creek cut a thin, persistent line through the soil, carving their way toward the larger systems that drain the Driftless area. To the west, the topography drops into the basin of Badger Hollow, a quiet expanse where the light of late afternoon clings to the grass, turning the blades a pale, translucent gold. Two miles out, the Rem-Blue River wildlife area offers a sanctuary of brush and timber, while the broader horizon is punctuated by the distant, steady silhouette of Pine Hill, marking the limit of the visible world.

Montfort maintains a rhythm dictated by the cycles of the soil and the legacy of agricultural industry that has long anchored its inhabitants. Established as a product of the mineral wealth and farming potential that drew settlers to these interior lands, the economy remains tied to the dairies and fields that stretch toward the horizon. Life here moves with the deliberate pace of a place where the seasons dictate the labor, and the social fabric is reinforced by the shared experience of rural life and the local tradition of the Friday fish fry. Eight miles to the north, Black Hawk Lake provides a still, dark counterpoint to the movement of the fields, serving as a landmark for those who look beyond the immediate work of the day. In the quiet evenings, the air carries a cooling dampness from the earth, and the lights of Montfort flicker against the vast, darkening prairie, marking a small, persistent human presence amidst the silent, enduring land.
