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 Streatham.
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.

Streatham is a locality in Coast Land District, British Columbia, Canada. It is classified as a town. Streatham is located at 53.8333°N, 126.2500°W.
Streatham occupies a solitary position along the shoreline of Whitesail Lake, where the air holds the keen, resinous edge of high-altitude forests. It lies 54.3 km south-west of Burns Lake, BC (from Burns Lake, BC: bearing 216°T), and is situated 13.6 km west-north-west of Ootsa Lake. The terrain rises steadily toward the shoulders of Picket Hill, grounding the landscape in a rugged, vertical geometry that catches the low, slanted light of late afternoon. While the Chelaslie River persists in its distant, winding course, the immediate surroundings of Streatham remain dominated by the vast, dark mirror of the lake and the encroaching timberline. Nearby, Wistaria Park offers a quiet respite, its boundaries marking a subtle transition between the wilder reaches of the Coast Land District and the sparse, deliberate human presence established here. Early inhabitants and those drawn to the region for its natural resources found a life defined by the seasonal pulse of the lake and the timbered slopes. Streatham grew through the quiet tenacity of those who worked the land and harvested the wood, maintaining an economy that looks inward toward the forest rather than out toward the sea. The days here move with the slow, deliberate care of someone watching the weather shift across the water, where the horizon serves as the primary clock. Even now, the stillness of the afternoon suggests a history built not on grand gestures, but on the persistent, daily labor required to thrive in such a secluded stretch of British Columbia.

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 Streatham 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.
