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 Foreston.
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.

Foreston is a locality in Carleton, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Foreston is located at 46.5284°N, 67.3089°W.
Foreston sits nestled within the rugged, undulating terrain near the Golden Ridge, where the air holds a crisp, persistent chill that lingers long after the sun has climbed above the horizon. It lies 25.8 km east-north-east of Carleton North, NB (from Carleton North, NB: bearing 66°T), and is situated 7.2 km west-south-west of Juniper. The landscape surrounding Foreston is defined by dense woodland and rocky outcrops, creating a quiet sanctuary that feels removed from the frantic pace of the wider world. At dusk, the light here turns a bruised, heavy gold, catching the edges of the trees and casting long, sharp shadows that seem to hold their breath against the coming night. Farther afield, the North Branch Southwest Miramichi River carves its path through the wilderness, its presence felt in the humid, moss-scented breeze that rolls across the hills. The history of Foreston is rooted in the persistence of those who worked the land and harvested the timber, turning the dense forest into a modest livelihood. While Craig Falls remains a distant, hidden landmark roughly twenty kilometers away, the local economy continues to rely on the steady, quiet rhythm of forestry and small-scale agriculture. Life in Foreston moves with a deliberate, measured gravity, dictated by the turning seasons and the shifting needs of the woods. Residents often find their days marked by the sound of wind moving through the pines, a constant, low-frequency hum that anchors the spirit to the earth.
Foreston s’étire sur les terres vallonnées du Nouveau-Brunswick, là où le regard s'attarde sur les ondulations de la crête Golden qui dessinent l'horizon. La lumière du crépuscule y possède une texture particulière, glissant sur les champs et les boisés avec une lenteur qui semble suspendre le mouvement des heures. À dix kilomètres de là, la rivière North Branch Southwest Miramichi poursuit son chemin discret, apportant une fraîcheur humide qui imprègne l'air, tandis que les chutes Craig, situées à vingt kilomètres, ajoutent au silence du secteur le grondement sourd et lointain de leur débit. L'économie de Foreston demeure intimement liée à cette terre exigeante et fertile, portée par une tradition agricole qui façonne encore la silhouette des fermes et le labeur quotidien des habitants. La rudesse du terrain, travaillée par des générations de mains, se perçoit dans l'alignement des clôtures et la solidité des structures qui affrontent les hivers vigoureux. Il règne dans ce territoire une persévérance silencieuse, un rythme dicté par l'inclinaison des pentes et la présence constante des éléments naturels. Ici, le ciel semble plus vaste, s'abaissant sur les vallées pour envelopper Foreston dans une quiétude que seul le souffle du vent vient parfois troubler, rappelant à chacun la force tranquille de cette géographie sauvage et indomptée.

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 Foreston 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.
