How to Use This Wallace, Kansas Map

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

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.

Wallace spreads across the high, sun-bleached plains of western Kansas like a pause in the relentless motion of the prairie. It lies 75.7 miles north-northwest of Garden City, KS (from Garden City, KS: bearing 329°T), and is situated 31.0 miles south-southeast of Goodland. The landscape here is defined by a vast, openness where the sky exerts a heavy, blue pressure on the earth, broken only by the subtle depression of Headquarters Draw two miles away or the distant, stoic silhouette of Motti Hill rising five miles to the horizon. To the east, the Smoky Hill River carves a narrow, verdant vein through the shortgrass, its banks lined with the gnarled, silver-barked cottonwoods that seem to hold the soil together against the persistent, dry winds. During the golden hour, the light turns the surrounding fields into a sea of amber, revealing the true scale of a terrain that demands patience from anyone who walks its perimeter.

History remains embedded in the quietude of Wallace, a place that once served as a vital outpost during the frontier era when the iron rails dictated the survival of every settlement on the plains. The economy continues to draw its strength from the cycles of agriculture, with the rhythm of the seasons governing the local pace as wheat and livestock occupy the vast, surrounding acreage. While the modern world feels distant, the spirit of the early settlers persists in the way the land is worked and in the collective memory of the dust and the drought. Those seeking a connection to the wilder aspects of the region often travel nineteen miles to the Logan State Fishing Lake And Wildlife Area, yet the true character of Wallace is found in the stillness of its streets, where the quiet life holds its own distinct, unpretentious gravity against the expanse of the plains.
