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 Fontaine.
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.

Fontaine is a locality in Kent, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Fontaine is located at 46.8512°N, 64.9667°W.
Fontaine rests in a quiet embrace of cedar and spruce, a low-lying reach of land defined by the persistent, dark currents of the Rivière Fontaine. It lies 21.4 km north-north-west of Beaurivage, NB (from Beaurivage, NB: bearing 339°T), and is situated 15.9 km south-west of Pointe-Sapin. The terrain here is soft and damp, where the air holds the scent of salt carried inland from the coast, lending a sharp, clean clarity to the light as it fades behind the treeline. Near the The Horseback, the earth rises slightly in a narrow, sandy ridge that offers a vantage over the surrounding marsh and timber, while eight kilometers distant, the still waters of Goose Lake mirror the shifting moods of the sky. Life in Fontaine is attuned to the seasonal cycles of Kouchibouguac National Park of Canada, where the protection of the land shapes the local outlook. Residents maintain a connection to the forest and the water, drawing upon a history of seasonal work and small-scale forestry that has long defined the character of this corner of the province. The pace of the day follows the movement of the tide and the turning of the leaves, a steady existence that values the quietude of the woods over the clamor of wider industry. In the stillness of an autumn evening, when the wind settles, one can hear the faint, rhythmic murmurs of the river, an enduring presence that anchors Fontaine within its wild surroundings.
Fontaine s’étire avec une humilité silencieuse le long des berges de la Rivière Fontaine, là où le sol s’imprègne d’une humidité boréale et tenace. Ce territoire, bordé par les limites du Kouchibouguac National Park of Canada, déploie ses plaines basses et ses boisés dans une lumière de fin de jour qui semble suspendre le souffle des pins. Près de The Horseback, le terrain se soulève légèrement, offrant une perspective minérale sur le passage discret des eaux, tandis que le lac Goose, étendu à quelques lieues, renvoie un éclat mat sous le ciel changeant de la côte acadienne. La vie à Fontaine se calque sur le rythme lent de la terre et des marées, héritant d’une mémoire où le travail de la forêt et la patience des saisons ont façonné les gestes de ceux qui habitent ici. Le vent, chargé de sel et d’écorce, parcourt les chemins étroits, rappelant aux passants que le paysage demeure le seul maître véritable de ces espaces. En arpentant les abords de la Rivière Fontaine, on devine une persistance tranquille, une manière d'exister qui ne cherche pas l'éclat, mais seulement la justesse d'un horizon qui se déploie entre la rigueur du Kouchibouguac National Park of Canada et la profondeur silencieuse des terres intérieures.

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 Fontaine 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.
