How to Use This Colt, Arkansas Map

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

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.

Colt endures as a quiet expanse where the horizon stretches flat and wide, defined by the relentless industry of agriculture. It lies 8.6 miles north of Forrest City, AR (from Forrest City, AR: bearing 352°T), and is situated 6.6 miles south-southwest of Wynne. The land here is a mosaic of fertile soil, interrupted only by the occasional verdant thicket or the deliberate, straight lines of irrigation ditches that channel water across the plains. Big Telico Creek meanders through this landscape a mile away, its presence marked by a thin ribbon of dense vegetation that breaks the monotony of the fields. To the west, the distant outline of Pea Ridge casts a faint, hazy shadow against the sky, while the nearby Village Creek State Park offers a sanctuary of hardwood timber and elevation that contrasts with the surrounding lowlands. As the sun dips low, the light catches the dust kicked up from the fields, turning the air into a golden haze that softens the edges of the barns and silos dotting the perimeter.

Colt traces its character to the patient rhythm of the seasons, where the economy remains tethered to the successful harvest of crops that define the regional output. Life moves in alignment with the planting and the reaping, a cycle that has persisted through generations, fostering a culture of self-reliance and deep familiarity among neighbors. While the Saint Francis Floodway lies miles away, its influence on the drainage and management of this terrain remains a fundamental reality for those who work the earth. The proximity of Lake Saint Francis provides a rare stillness, a place where the water mirrors the sky and offers a respite from the mechanical hum of tractors and combines. Colt maintains a modest, steady pace, anchored by the labor of its residents and the enduring, quiet gravity of the Arkansas landscape.
