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 Hillhurst.
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.

Hillhurst is a urban community in Kings, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Hillhurst is located at 45.4191°N, 66.0017°W.
Hillhurst occupies a quiet stretch of the Atlantic coast, defined by the rugged prominence of Spy Glass Hill rising against the horizon. It lies 16.7 km south-west of Hampton, NB (from Hampton, NB: bearing 223°T), and is situated 11.9 km east-south-east of Browns Flat. The land here holds a stillness that lingers long after the sun dips below the coastline, casting a pale, bruised light across the salt-dampened earth. Inland, the terrain shifts into a series of modest rises and hollows where the humidity clings to the brush, a reminder of the moisture held by Ritchie Lake just three kilometers away. While the Hammond River flows eight kilometers to the west and the descent of Silver Falls remains fourteen kilometers distant, the immediate character of Hillhurst is shaped by the proximity of the sea, which dictates the salt-cured air and the bracing, unpredictable winds that roll off the water. Economic life in Hillhurst has historically turned toward the resources of the coast, reflecting a legacy of maritime resourcefulness that persists in the way residents manage their properties and trade. The architecture suggests a deliberate endurance, with structures positioned to face the prevailing weather, keeping a steady watch over the shifting tides. Daily routines here are defined by the tides and the seasonal migration of light, creating a life that moves in accordance with the needs of a coastal environment. In the quiet hours of the early morning, the fog often blankets the lower elevations, lending a sense of isolation that keeps Hillhurst anchored to its own distinct, rhythmic existence.
Hillhurst se déploie avec une retenue souveraine sur les hauteurs qui dominent la côte atlantique, là où le souffle salin vient caresser les pentes de la colline Spy Glass. Dans cette lumière déclinante qui étire les ombres sur le sol rocailleux, le paysage se révèle dans une clarté minérale, marquée par la proximité silencieuse du lac Ritchie, dont les eaux immobiles semblent garder le secret de terres façonnées par une longue patience agricole. À quelques lieues, la rivière Hammond poursuit son cheminement discret à travers les replis du terrain, tandis que le fracas lointain des chutes Silver ponctue le silence des bois environnants. Les bâtisses de Hillhurst, aux toits éprouvés par les vents du large, racontent une existence tournée vers les horizons maritimes, exigeante et dépouillée de tout artifice. Ici, le rythme des journées suit la course du soleil sur les crêtes et le ressac constant des marées, imposant une discipline naturelle aux hommes qui habitent ces parages. Les traditions locales, nourries par l'isolement relatif et la rudesse de la géographie, persistent dans une sobriété qui honore la terre et les éléments. Hillhurst demeure un espace de solitude habitée, où le regard se perd volontiers entre l'immensité de l'océan et la ligne austère des reliefs qui ferment l'horizon.

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 Hillhurst 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.
