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 Pinniquine.
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.

Pinniquine is a locality in Madawaska, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Pinniquine is located at 47.3900°N, 68.5568°W.
Pinniquine sits tucked against the Côte à Blanchette, where the land rises in quiet, forested slopes that hold the damp chill of the morning long after the sun has climbed. It lies 10.2 km north-north-west of Haut-Madawaska, NB (from Haut-Madawaska, NB: bearing 345°T), and is situated 15.7 km north-north-east of Clair. The air here carries the scent of balsam fir and the sharp, clean edge of cold water, a reminder that Petit lac Saint-Jean rests only 4 km away. Shadows stretch long and thin across the terrain toward the Rivière Baker-Brook-Nord, which carves its path through the wilderness 5 km from the heart of the settlement. At dusk, the light turns a bruised, translucent violet, settling over the trees with a weight that makes the vast expanse of the landscape feel intimate and closed. Even at a remove of 38 km, the presence of Parc national du Lac-Témiscouata exerts a silent influence, anchoring the region in a deep, protected wildness that shapes the way the wind moves across the ridges. Life in Pinniquine moves according to the necessities of the high northern woods, where the work of the day is dictated by the slow, seasonal turn of the timber and the endurance required by the long winters. Families here hold onto traditions born from generations of clearing brush and navigating the heavy, snow-laden silence that descends when the first frost arrives. The economy remains bound to the land and the timber, a reality that keeps the residents focused on the practical matters of maintenance and survival. There is a particular kind of stillness in the way a woodstove breathes in the dark, a sound that settles into the house as surely as the snow piles against the doorframe. Residents of Pinniquine understand that their existence is a deliberate act of persistence, matching their own quiet pace to the slow, steady growth of the spruce and cedar that define the horizon.
Pinniquine s'étire sur les terres hautes du Madawaska, là où le sol semble retenir la lumière déclinante des après-midis d'automne avec une gravité silencieuse. À proximité de la Côte à Blanchette, le terrain s'incline doucement vers la Rivière Baker-Brook-Nord, dont les méandres impriment un rythme lent et immuable à la topographie locale. Non loin, le Petit lac Saint-Jean offre une étendue d'eau calme où le ciel vient poser ses reflets, tandis que, vers l'horizon lointain, le Parc national du Lac-Témiscouata dessine une silhouette forestière qui impose sa présence majestueuse à la ligne de mire. La vie à Pinniquine se déploie dans cet espace de transition, marqué par une tradition agricole tenace et le murmure des vents qui traversent les vallons. Les habitants y cultivent une existence simple, façonnée par la proximité des eaux et la rigueur du climat septentrional. Le paysage, dépourvu d'artifice, révèle une beauté austère, celle des terres travaillées par les familles qui ont su déchiffrer les secrets de cette géographie particulière. Chaque sentier, chaque ondulation du relief raconte une histoire de labeur et de patience, transformant le quotidien en une succession de gestes familiers sous le regard attentif des arbres centenaires et des cours d'eau qui ponctuent les environs.

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 Pinniquine 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.
