This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Canoe, British Columbia. 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 to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, 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 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 Canoe.
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.

Canoe is a community in Kamloops Division Yale Land District, British Columbia, Canada. It is classified as a town. Canoe is located at 50.7500°N, 119.2333°W.
Canoe rests firmly upon the eastern shore of Shuswap Lake, a settlement defined by the steep, forested rise of the Larch Hills that anchor the horizon. It lies 6.0 km north-north-east of Salmon Arm, BC (from Salmon Arm, BC: bearing 23°T), and is situated 9.4 km south-east of Carlin. The air here holds the damp, cool scent of cedar and spruce, particularly as the evening light leans long across the water, turning the surface into a sheet of hammered grey metal. Just a few kilometers away, the hidden tumble of Margaret Falls offers a cool, moss-softened refuge, while the nearby expanse of Herald Park provides a sanctuary where the shoreline remains largely undisturbed. The Salmon River flows through the broader district, its presence felt in the way the land dips and gathers moisture before meeting the lake. Industrial life in Canoe has long been shaped by the timber that draws its strength from the surrounding slopes, anchoring the local economy to the rhythm of the mill. Generations of workers have maintained a steady, purposeful pace here, their labor grounding the character of the settlement in the practical demands of forestry. Beyond the hum of industry, Canoe retains a quiet, persistent identity that looks toward the water and the rising terrain. Life moves with the seasons, from the crisp clarity of winter air to the heavy, sun-drenched days of midsummer, ensuring that Canoe keeps its own deliberate measure regardless of the world beyond the hills.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. 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.
Location data for Canoe is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
