Explore Manter, Kansas, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Manter, Kansas. 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 Kansas 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 Manter.
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.

Manter occupies a vast, level expanse of high plains where the earth meets the sky in a singular, unbroken line of wheat-gold and gray. It lies 62.5 miles west-northwest of Liberal, KS (from Liberal, KS: bearing 302°T), and is situated 29.3 miles west of Ulysses. The horizon dominates the senses, pressing down with a heavy, atmospheric clarity that makes the distant, wind-sculpted clouds appear as solid as marble. Three miles from the outskirts, the landscape dips slightly toward the narrow, seasonal path of Sand Arroyo Creek, where the soil holds a darker, more tenacious moisture. In the quiet hours of dusk, the light stretches thin and amber across the stalks, revealing a stillness so profound it feels as if the land itself is waiting for the next gust of wind to stir the dry, pervasive dust.
Agriculture serves as the pulse of Manter, anchoring the lives of those who work the deep, mineral-rich soil that has sustained generations through cycles of drought and bloom. The industry remains tethered to the rhythm of the harvest, a stubborn persistence that honors the lessons etched by the difficult climate of the past. Beyond the immediate reach of the silos and iron fences, residents occasionally venture toward the open expanse of Burchfield Lake State Wildlife Area to observe the migratory stillness of the plains. Life here moves with the measured, deliberate pace of a season, reflecting a culture that values the weight of a handshake and the enduring resilience required to thrive upon these high, unyielding flats.

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.
