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 Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Coutts.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, 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 — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue 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.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Coutts is a village in 4-1-15-W4, Alberta, Canada. It is classified as a town. Coutts is located at 49.0028°N, 111.9589°W.
Coutts occupies a vast, open shelf of land where the horizon pulls the sky down to meet the earth in a single, unwavering line. It lies 18.8 km south-south-east of Milk River, AB (from Milk River, AB: bearing 150°T), and is situated 36.0 km south-south-east of Warner. The air here carries a persistent, scouring clarity, sharpening the edges of the golden grasses that bend under the weight of the wind. Near the edge of the plains, the Milk River carves a path through the earth about 10 km away, while the quiet basin of Macklin Lake sits 7 km distant, holding the reflection of the clouds in its shallow, still surface. The light at dusk settles over the terrain with a bruised, violet intensity, emphasizing the solitude of a landscape that stretches toward Writing-On-Stone Provincial Park, located 25 km away, where the stone formations rise like silent, ancient sentinels from the coulees. The history of Coutts remains tied to the movement of goods and the rigid, invisible line of the international border that dictates the daily pace of life. Industry here functions as a steady pulse, with transport trucks idling in long, rhythmic queues that hum against the silence of the prairie. The people of Coutts manage the demands of this transit corridor with a pragmatic endurance, turning their faces away from the grit of the highway toward the quiet persistence of the surrounding fields. Even in the height of summer, the heat shimmering off the asphalt feels like a physical barrier, isolating the houses from the vast, empty reaches that define the local geography. Beneath the relentless expanse of blue, the work continues, defined by the constant, mechanical progress of the border crossing and the slow, deep turning of the seasons.

It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS 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.
