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 Petit-Rocher-Nord.
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.

Petit-Rocher-Nord is a locality in Gloucester, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Petit-Rocher-Nord is located at 47.8095°N, 65.7326°W.
Petit-Rocher-Nord rests against the salt-edged margin of the Atlantic coast, where the land yields to the tide beneath the quiet watch of the Tetagouche Hill. It lies 12.3 km north of Belle-Baie, NB (from Belle-Baie, NB: bearing 350°T), and is situated 3.1 km north-north-west of Petit-Rocher. The Rivière aux Ormes carves a modest path toward the sea, its current carrying the scent of damp earth and cooling stone as it nears the shore. When the light leans low in the evening, the water takes on a bruised, metallic sheen, reflecting the stillness of a terrain that seems to hold its breath against the coming dark. Beyond the immediate coastline, the reach of the horizon feels expansive, defined by the rugged character of the northern landscape and the persistent, bracing air that blows in from the open water. The history of Petit-Rocher-Nord tracks the steady labor of those who settled near the water to harvest the sea’s bounty and work the timbered slopes. Today, the economy remains shaped by the rhythms of the coast, where the presence of Belledune Lake, located 13 km away, serves as a quiet inland reference point for the surrounding geography. Life here favors the practical, with the daily movements of residents reflecting a long-standing familiarity with the demands of the climate and the terrain. Whether tending to boats or moving through the seasonal shifts, the people maintain a grounded perspective, finding a quiet beauty in the way the morning mist clings to the Rivière aux Ormes before the sun fully claims the day.
Petit-Rocher-Nord s'étire le long de la côte atlantique, là où le souffle salin rencontre la terre ferme dans une patience séculaire. Sous la clarté changeante des crépuscules, les eaux de la Rivière aux Ormes descendent vers le large avec une lenteur mélancolique, serpentant entre les berges avant de s'effacer dans l'immensité marine. À l'arrière-plan, le relief s'élève vers la colline Tetagouche, dont la présence constante semble protéger ce coin de pays acadien contre les assauts des vents du nord. Le paysage, marqué par une rudesse élégante, conserve le souvenir des labeurs passés, tandis que le lac Belledune, distant de treize kilomètres, repose dans un silence minéral sous le ciel vaste. L'existence à Petit-Rocher-Nord se rythme selon les marées et les caprices du climat, héritage d'une ténacité forgée par le travail de la terre et les rigueurs de l'océan. Les maisons, tournées vers l'horizon, semblent guetter le retour des lumières lointaines, affirmant une identité singulière qui persiste, intacte, entre les boisés et le rivage. Ici, chaque rafale qui balaie le littoral raconte une histoire de résilience, celle d'une vie humble qui s'épanouit dans la simplicité des éléments, portée par le murmure perpétuel des vagues contre les rochers.

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 Petit-Rocher-Nord 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.
