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 Nelson-Miramichi.
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.

Nelson-Miramichi is a urban community in Northumberland, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Nelson-Miramichi is located at 46.9786°N, 65.5406°W.
Nelson-Miramichi rests amidst the rolling terrain of Northumberland, anchored by the persistent presence of the Miramichi River. It lies 6.3 km west-south-west of Miramichi, NB (from Miramichi, NB: bearing 243°T), and is situated 6.9 km east-north-east of Eel Ground. The land here gathers itself toward the elevation of Ashton Hill, where the air often carries a sharp, crisp edge that signals the changing seasons of the north. Sunlight catches the surface of the Miramichi River, turning the water into a ribbon of hammered silver as it pulls steadily toward the sea. Nearby, the quiet expanse of the Chatham Reservoir sits in stillness, a reflective basin that holds the sky and anchors the surrounding woods in a heavy, humid silence during the heat of mid-summer. The history of Nelson-Miramichi traces back to the deep connection between the people and the bounty of the surrounding timber and water. Local industry has long relied on the strength of the forest, with generations finding their livelihood in the rhythm of the mills and the harvesting of wood that defines the regional economy. Life in Nelson-Miramichi follows the seasonal pulse of the landscape, where the cold winters demand a quiet endurance and the spring thaw brings a frantic, surging energy to the riverbanks. Residents maintain a practical, grounded way of being, marking their days by the passage of heavy machinery and the steady flow of the currents that have shaped the development of the region for generations.
Nelson-Miramichi s'étire avec une lenteur majestueuse le long des rives de la rivière Miramichi, là où le courant semble porter les souvenirs des terres intérieures vers l'estuaire. À proximité, la silhouette de la colline Ashton domine les terres environnantes, offrant une vigie naturelle sur cette étendue boisée qui a façonné l'existence des familles établies ici depuis des générations. Les brumes matinales s'attardent souvent sur les eaux, créant une atmosphère de recueillement, tandis qu'à quelques kilomètres, le Chatham Reservoir conserve son calme, miroir immobile reflétant les nuances changeantes du ciel atlantique. L'activité de Nelson-Miramichi se rythme selon les besoins du bois et les exigences du climat, une rigueur apprise dans le travail acharné des chantiers et des fermes. Il existe dans la lumière du crépuscule une qualité particulière, une clarté presque minérale qui souligne les contours du terrain et la robustesse des habitations. Les habitants partagent cet héritage de résilience, une manière d'être qui appartient autant aux courants profonds de la rivière qu'à la terre ferme. Ici, la nature ne se contemple pas comme un décor, elle se vit dans le quotidien, dans le geste simple de surveiller la crue ou d'observer la lumière décliner derrière la colline Ashton, marquant la fin d'une journée laborieuse sur le sol généreux de Northumberland.
