Explore Colbert, Washington, 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 Colbert, Washington. 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 Washington 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 Colbert.
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.

Colbert spreads across a landscape where the horizon softens into the gentle, uneven swells of the inland plateau. It lies 11.6 miles north-northwest of Spokane Valley, WA (from Spokane Valley, WA: bearing 336°T), and is situated 4.1 miles north of Mead. Little Deep Creek carves a quiet, persistent path through the terrain, its waters drawing a thin line of green against the earth as it moves toward the expanse of Valley Prairie. To the south, the modest rise of Layton Hill defines the skyline, a constant marker for those who traverse the open roads that cut through the fields. In the quiet hours before dusk, the light here turns a pale, translucent gold, catching the dust that rises from the dry soil and suspending it in the cooling air. Residents often look toward the distant, hazy silhouettes of elevated ground that mark the edge of the region, yet they remain anchored to this specific stretch of land where Winfield Park offers a sanctuary of open space and quiet growth.
Colbert maintains a rhythm dictated by the steady, pragmatic pace of those who work the soil and navigate the transition between the dense timberlands and the arid stretches of the east. The economy remains tethered to the land, reflecting a history of homesteading and agricultural persistence that has long defined the character of the families who settled here. Unlike the bustling centers located toward the western corridor, life here is measured in the seasonal cycles of the fields and the maintenance of the infrastructure that supports the local livelihood. Ten miles to the west, the waters of Nine Mile Reservoir hold the stillness of the high country, providing a silent counterpoint to the busy, utilitarian nature of the surrounding acreage. It is a place of deliberate, unadorned existence, where the history of the locale is written not in monuments, but in the enduring fence lines and the weathered barns that stand as quiet witnesses to the passage of generations.

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.
