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 Gravel 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.

Gravel Hill is a locality in Restigouche, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Gravel Hill is located at 47.9109°N, 66.1217°W.
Gravel Hill rises from the rugged Atlantic coast, defined by the firm elevation of Lavignes Hill and the restless flow of the Louison River. It lies 25.2 km south-east of Dalhousie, NB (from Dalhousie, NB: bearing 127°T), and is situated 3.4 km west-south-west of Nash Creek. The terrain here holds a particular austerity, where the salt-heavy air clings to the spruce and the light at dusk turns the water of the Louison River into a sheet of hammered pewter. Inland, the landscape softens toward the quiet basin of Hayes Lake, situated about 4 km away, providing a sheltered counterpoint to the exposed coastal ridges. Farther out, the presence of Parc national de Miguasha, located about 29 km away, anchors the horizon, reminding those in Gravel Hill of the deep geological patience inherent to this northern reach of the province. Life in Gravel Hill follows the seasonal pulse of the tides and the shifting demands of the maritime climate. The local economy relies on the stubborn persistence of traditional trades, where the work of the day is often dictated by the temperament of the coast. Men and women here move with the efficiency of those who understand that the land provides only what is earned through steady effort. Even as the seasons turn, the residents maintain a quiet focus, finding a distinct beauty in the way the morning fog clings to the slopes of Lavignes Hill before burning off to reveal the long, clear views of the Atlantic. While the modern world presses against the edges of the province, Gravel Hill keeps a grounded character, rooted in the familiar movements of the river and the steady, enduring pull of the sea.
Gravel Hill s'étire sur les hauteurs de la colline Lavignes, là où le relief se façonne selon les caprices d'une géographie côtière tournée vers les eaux froides. Le souffle marin remonte les terres, imprégnant chaque parcelle de cette zone où la rivière Louison serpente avec une lenteur calculée, marquant le rythme des journées par son murmure constant contre les berges. À une distance de quatre kilomètres, le lac Hayes repose dans un silence minéral, observant la progression des brumes qui s'attardent sur les versants. Vers le nord, à vingt-neuf kilomètres, le Parc national de Miguasha impose sa présence géologique, rappelant aux habitants de Gravel Hill l'ancienneté des strates sur lesquelles ils bâtissent leur quotidien. L'économie locale, façonnée par les rudesses climatiques et l'exploitation des ressources forestières, se lit dans les façades patinées par les vents salins. Ici, la lumière du crépuscule décline avec une précision mélancolique, dorant les pentes de la colline Lavignes avant de s'éteindre sur les rives de la rivière Louison. Ce territoire, loin des grands centres, conserve une identité brute, façonnée par la proximité immédiate de l'Atlantique et une persévérance silencieuse qui définit chaque geste des résidents habitués à composer avec la rigueur du sol.

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 Gravel 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.
