How to Use This South Mound, Kansas Map

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

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.

South Mound defines itself through the persistent, low-slung curvature of the Kansas prairie where the horizon stretches into a wide, unblinking eye. It lies 28.8 miles west of Pittsburg, KS (from Pittsburg, KS: bearing 274°T), and is situated 6.9 miles north-northeast of Parsons. Bachelor Creek carves a shallow, emerald-shadowed path through the terrain, its banks lined with the silver-leafed tremble of cottonwoods that catch the golden, heavy light of late afternoon. Beyond the immediate reach of the creek, the landscape rises into subtle, wind-swept swells of tallgrass that hold the heat of the sun long after the shadows lengthen. Only a mile away, the quiet expanse of Neosho State Fishing Lake offers a stillness that mirrors the vast, cloud-dappled sky above, providing a sanctuary where the air tastes of dry earth and ripening stalks.

South Mound emerged from the quiet ambition of homesteaders who sought to anchor their lives within the resilient fiber of these plains, building a rhythm defined by the seasonal pulse of harvest and the slow turning of the soil. The local economy remains tethered to the land, an inheritance of agriculture that dictates the pace of the days and the character of the people who work the surrounding fields. While the echoes of history linger in the limestone foundations of the region, the present remains grounded in the practical, steady labor of those who maintain the fences and tend the grain. Even as the modern world shifts, the area retains a solitary grace, far removed from the clamor of larger centers, sustained by the simple clarity of the wind moving across the plains.

About This South Mound Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of South Mound, Kansas. Coordinates: 37.437278, -95.228586. 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 South Mound includes the ZIP code (67357), telephone area code (785), county seat of Neosho County (Erie), and school district assignment (Erie-Galesburg Unified School District 101).

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.
