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 Matthews.
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.

Matthews is a locality in Northumberland, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Matthews is located at 46.9301°N, 65.9181°W.
Matthews rests in a quiet fold of Northumberland, defined by the persistent, cold presence of the Little Southwest Miramichi River. It lies 23.6 km north-north-west of Miramichi River Valley, NB (from Miramichi River Valley, NB: bearing 344°T), and is situated 15.8 km north-west of Renous. The land rises toward the nearby Maple Hill, a steady elevation that dictates the movement of wind and the drainage of the spring thaw across the dark, coniferous terrain. In the twilight, the air near the water turns heavy and sharp, carrying a stillness that settles over the stones and cedar roots like a physical weight. While Estey Lake and Estey Falls lie at a distance of fourteen and fifteen kilometers respectively, their presence is felt in the way the local topography leans toward the water, creating a landscape that feels perpetually shaped by the pull of the river. The history of Matthews remains tied to the timber that once moved down the current, a legacy of labor that defined the early clearing of these woods. Today, the economy leans into the quiet demands of the forest and the seasonal cycles of the land, far removed from the clamor of larger centers. Life in Matthews follows the turning of the seasons, where the primary tradition is the maintenance of a life lived in proximity to the wild, rugged banks of the river. The deep, muffled sound of water moving over rock provides a constant, low-frequency hum that serves as the background to every hour, marking a passage of time that is measured by the growth of the timber and the return of the ice.
Matthews s'étire avec une humilité silencieuse près de la colline Maple, là où le souffle du vent semble s'alourdir de la sève des bois anciens. Les eaux de la rivière Little Southwest Miramichi glissent en contrebas, charriant une clarté froide qui semble contenir la mémoire des premières neiges, tandis que la lumière déclinante du soir accroche les reliefs ombragés du terrain. À une quinzaine de kilomètres, le lac Estey repose dans une immobilité presque minérale, faisant écho à la présence lointaine des chutes Estey dont le murmure persistant finit par se perdre dans l'immensité du paysage. Matthews observe le passage des heures sous un ciel qui s'étire sans fin, préservant une tradition forestière qui habite encore les gestes de ceux qui travaillent le sol et le bois. Il existe ici une respiration particulière, une manière de se tenir devant l'horizon qui n'appartient qu'à ces terres du Northumberland. Dans ce cadre où la géographie impose sa propre mesure, les jours s'écoulent en suivant le rythme lent des courants et le basculement des saisons, sans autre ambition que de maintenir le lien étroit entre l'homme et la terre sombre qui le porte.

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 Matthews 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.
