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 Granite Hill.
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.

Granite Hill is a locality in York, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Granite Hill is located at 45.9509°N, 67.0965°W.
Granite Hill stands as a quiet sentinel of stone and timber, rising with a deliberate grace above the persistent flow of the Saint John River. It lies 12.0 km east-south-east of Nackawic-Millville, NB (from Nackawic-Millville, NB: bearing 115°T), and is situated 10.6 km east-south-east of Nackawic. The terrain here is defined by the rugged character of the Trail Ridge, where the earth holds a cool, mineral endurance beneath the seasonal shifts of the canopy. As dusk settles, a pale, bruised light clings to the rocky outcrops, illuminating the stillness of the woods where the air tastes of damp cedar and ancient granite. To the north, the presence of Davidson Lake offers a reflective calm that seems to mirror the solitude of the surrounding hills. Near the lower elevations, the hidden descent of Joslin Creek Falls provides a constant, low-frequency pulse to the woods, a reminder of the water that has carved its way through this landscape long before the first dwellings were cleared from the brush. Life in Granite Hill maintains a focus on the land, drawing sustenance from the forested slopes and the nearby reach of Mactaquac Provincial Park. The economy has historically turned toward the woods and the river, with the labor of past generations leaving subtle marks on the timber stands and the paths that wind toward the water. In the quiet mornings, the fog hangs low over the Saint John River, dampening the sound of the world and leaving only the sharp, clean scent of the pines. Traditions here are kept close, grounded in the seasonal migrations and the slow, steady work required to thrive in the shadow of the ridge. The people possess a wary respect for the winter cold, preparing for the frost with a diligence that reflects the uncompromising nature of the terrain itself.
Granite Hill s’élève avec une humilité minérale au-dessus des méandres de la rivière Saint John, offrant une perspective singulière sur les terres fertiles qui bordent ses rives. Lorsque le crépuscule dépose une clarté cuivrée sur la crête Trail, le relief s’adoucit, révélant une topographie où chaque ondulation raconte le travail patient de l’érosion sur le socle rocheux. À quelques kilomètres, le lac Davidson dort dans une quiétude absolue, tandis que le fracas lointain des chutes Joslin Creek ponctue le silence des forêts environnantes. L’esprit des lieux se nourrit de cette géographie austère, héritière d’une tradition agricole qui a su apprivoiser la rigueur du climat pour faire fleurir des vergers et des champs à proximité du parc provincial Mactaquac. Les habitants de Granite Hill entretiennent une relation intime avec ces horizons, observant le passage des heures par le simple glissement des ombres sur les pentes boisées. Il existe une noblesse particulière dans cette persistance, une manière de vivre qui se plie aux caprices du courant et à la solidité du sol sous les pieds, loin de l’agitation des centres urbains. Ici, la terre impose son propre rythme, invitant à une contemplation silencieuse devant la puissance tranquille de la rivière Saint John qui façonne indéfiniment la physionomie de la région.

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 Granite Hill 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.
