How to Use This Russell Springs, Kansas Map

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

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.

Russell Springs emerges from the high plains as a persistent island of settlement amidst a vast, amber-hued horizon of wheat and wild grasses. It lies 67.2 miles north-northwest of Garden City, KS (from Garden City, KS: bearing 346°T), and is situated 34.0 miles south-southwest of Colby. West Spring Creek carves a shallow, meandering path through the earth nearby, its banks lined with the gnarled, silver-barked cottonwoods that drink deep from the limestone-filtered water. To the west, the jagged silhouette of Devils Backbone disrupts the flat line of the sky, a distant reminder of the geologic volatility that once shaped this region. The air here holds a distinct, dry clarity, especially as the sun dips low and casts long, violet shadows across the fields, lending the landscape a quiet, austere dignity that feels both ancient and immediate.

Economic life in Russell Springs remains tethered to the rhythmic cycles of the soil, where the labor of the harvest dictates the pulse of the days. While the nearby Logan State Fishing Lake And Wildlife Area offers a sanctuary for those seeking the stillness of the prairie, the inhabitants find their own continuity in the modest, sturdy architecture that recalls a frontier heritage. The memory of the Dust Bowl lingers in the way the wind behaves, whipping across the open expanse and testing the resolve of the sturdy, low-slung buildings. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the terrain dips toward Six Mile Gulch, where the earth reveals the rugged, unadorned character of the plains, a place where the work is honest and the silence is a language of its own.

About This Russell Springs Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Russell Springs, Kansas. Coordinates: 38.913344, -101.181545. 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 Russell Springs includes the ZIP code (67764), telephone area code (785), county seat of Logan County (Oakley), and school district assignment (Triplains Unified School District 275).

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.
