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 Briggs Corner.
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.

Briggs Corner is a locality in Queens, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Briggs Corner is located at 46.2104°N, 65.8952°W.
Briggs Corner rests in the quiet reach of Queens where the land yields to the slow, dark weight of the Salmon River. It lies 3.1 km north-north-west of Grand Lake, NB (from Grand Lake, NB: bearing 333°T), and is situated 3.9 km north-north-west of Chipman. The terrain here climbs steadily toward the Wanamaker Ridge, a spine of earth that defines the horizon and holds the lingering heat of the day long after the sun has dipped below the trees. Along the shore of Grand Lake, the air carries a persistent dampness, a scent of silt and cedar that clings to the skin during the humid New Brunswick summers. Morning light settles over the water in thin, silver sheets, revealing a stillness that seems to suspend the very movement of the shoreline. History in Briggs Corner lingers in the remnants of timber operations and the remnants of fields reclaimed by alder and spruce, reflecting a local economy once anchored to the extraction of wood and the stubborn cultivation of the soil. Life follows the seasonal shifts of the Salmon River, which dictates the accessibility of the woods and the ebb of activity in the colder months. Residents maintain a private, enduring relationship with the landscape, moving through the woods with a practiced familiarity that ignores the encroachment of modern haste. Even now, the evening stillness brings a profound sense of isolation, where the only sound is the water shifting against the banks and the occasional call of a bird retreating into the shadows of the Wanamaker Ridge.
Briggs Corner s'étire avec une patience minérale sur les terres de la région de Queens, là où le sol semble conserver la mémoire des anciens labours. À l'approche du crépuscule, la lumière s'attarde sur les hauteurs de la crête Wanamaker, teintant les feuillages d'une nuance cuivrée qui s'étiole doucement vers les eaux sombres de la rivière Salmon. Le paysage se déploie avec une retenue toute provinciale, offrant des perspectives dégagées vers les rives du lac Grand, dont la présence modifie imperceptiblement la texture de l'air, le rendant plus humide, plus chargé de cette fraîcheur qui précède la nuit. L'histoire de Briggs Corner demeure liée à la terre nourricière et à la force tranquille du cours d'eau voisin, véritable axe de vie qui façonne le rythme lent des journées. Les habitations, dispersées avec une simplicité pragmatique, semblent attendre chaque soir le silence souverain qui descend des hauteurs, tandis que la brume monte lentement des berges pour envelopper les champs. Ici, chaque détail du relief, chaque inflexion du terrain, raconte une existence dévouée à la persévérance, loin des tumultes, dans une sérénité que seule une terre façonnée par les éléments sait offrir à ceux qui habitent ses marges.

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 Briggs Corner 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.
