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 Dufrost.
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.

Dufrost is a community in 1-5-3-E, Manitoba, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Dufrost is located at 49.3583°N, 97.0517°W.
Dufrost sits as a quiet point of stillness upon the flat, wide expanse of the prairie, where the horizon stretches long and uninterrupted beneath an immense sky. It lies 8.7 km west-north-west of St. Malo, MB (from St. Malo, MB: bearing 302°T), and is situated 15.0 km west-south-west of Grunthal. The Rat River cuts a slow, deliberate path through the earth nearby, its dark waters holding the reflection of clouds that drift with a heavy, deliberate grace. In the lingering light of dusk, the fields around Dufrost take on a bruised, violet hue, grounding the landscape in a deep, earthen silence that feels ancient and undisturbed. Beyond the immediate reach of the grain elevators, the landscape opens toward St. Malo Lake and the nearby St. Malo Provincial Park, drawing the eye toward a horizon that shifts from golden stubble to the deep greens of the parkland. The economy of Dufrost remains rooted in the heavy, rich soil, where the seasonal turning of the land dictates the pulse of the day. Generations of families have watched the seasons roll over these plains, tethering their lives to the cycles of planting and harvest that define the local character. While the pace of modern life quickens elsewhere, Dufrost maintains a steady, internal gravity, marked by the simple architecture of silos and the persistent hum of machinery during the harvest months. St. Malo Provincial Park serves as a nearby retreat for those seeking the cooling influence of the water, yet the heart of the region stays fixed on the agricultural work that sustains the people here. Every fence line and gravel road serves as a reminder of the persistence required to live in such an exposed, open country, where the wind carries the scent of dry grass and the promise of a long, quiet winter.
