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 Caithness.
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.

Caithness is a locality in Charlotte, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Caithness is located at 45.1170°N, 66.8496°W.
Caithness rests upon the rising slopes of Poorhouse Hill, overlooking the Atlantic coast where the land yields to the sea. It lies 2.7 km south-west of Eastern Charlotte, NB (from Eastern Charlotte, NB: bearing 234°T), and is situated 8.2 km north-west of Blacks Harbour. The Magaguadavic River flows past the settlement, its currents carrying the cool, briny breath of the ocean inland to meet the stillness of the woods. Nearby, the water gathers strength and tumbles over First Falls, a constant, low-frequency pulse that defines the local soundscape. Beyond the immediate rise of the hills, the terrain holds the quiet expanse of Lelands Lake, while the sheltered reaches of Réserve de la faune Utopia lie further out, preserving the wild character of the region. At dusk, the light here softens, turning the surface of the water into a sheet of polished grey that reflects the darkening silhouette of the trees. The history of Caithness finds its anchor in the rugged utility of the landscape, where the extraction and movement of timber long shaped the lives of those who settled along the riverbanks. The local economy persists in a quiet alignment with the natural cycles of the coast, reflecting a tradition of independence that favors steady labor over haste. Residents navigate the seasons with a practical familiarity, moving between the river and the higher ground of Poorhouse Hill as the weather dictates. In the clear, sharp air of early morning, the scent of pine and salt rises from the earth, grounding the daily routines of the people in a landscape that asks for little and offers a deep, enduring calm to those who remain.
Caithness s'étire le long des rives de la rivière Magaguadavic, là où l'air chargé d'iode de la côte atlantique vient caresser les pentes de la colline Poorhouse. Dans cette terre du Nouveau-Brunswick, le jour décline avec une lenteur solennelle, étirant des ombres mauves sur les boisés qui entourent le secteur. À peine à un kilomètre, le fracas sourd des chutes First rythme le silence des forêts, tandis que le lac Lelands, distant de quelques lieues, conserve en son miroir sombre la mémoire des glaces anciennes. L’existence ici se mesure à la patience du courant et à la solidité du sol rocailleux, façonnant une vie qui puise sa force dans la proximité immédiate de ces eaux sauvages et de la réserve de la faune Utopia, vaste étendue où la nature impose sa loi souveraine. Les jours s'écoulent sans hâte, rythmés par le travail de la terre et le murmure constant de la rivière qui guide les gestes de Caithness depuis des générations. Sous la lumière changeante du crépuscule, le paysage se dépouille de ses artifices pour ne laisser paraître que la roche, le bois et l'eau, éléments premiers d'une existence sobre qui demeure fidèle à sa géographie austère et lumineuse.

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 Caithness 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.
