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 Roach.
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.

Roach is a locality in York, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Roach is located at 45.6716°N, 66.9312°W.
Roach sits sequestered within the dense, brooding timberlands of York, where the earth holds the damp, cool scent of pine needles and long-settled stone. It lies 8.8 km south-east of Harvey, NB (from Harvey, NB: bearing 142°T), and is situated 8.7 km east-south-east of Manners Sutton. The terrain rises toward the slopes of Bunker Hill, a rise of land that dictates the drainage of the woods and shelters the hollows from the sharper northern winds. Near the stillness of Mud Lake, the air thickens with a heavy, silver mist at dusk, turning the surrounding spruce into jagged silhouettes against a bruised violet sky. Roach maintains a quiet presence here, defined less by its structures and more by the way the light catches the dew on the mossy granite outcrops that break the surface of the forest floor. The history of Roach lingers in the quiet persistence of those who work the timber and manage the seasonal cycles of the woods. While the distant rush of the Magaguadavic River provides a constant, hidden pulse in the background, the economy of Roach relies on the stubborn utility of the land and the endurance of its people. Life here moves in accordance with the turning seasons, punctuated by the seasonal migration of hunters and the steady, rhythmic labor of local woodlots. To the north, the spray of North Branch Falls creates a lingering dampness that drifts toward the settlement, a reminder of the raw, untamed water that defines the wider landscape. Beyond the immediate tree line, the sprawl of Mactaquac Provincial Park serves as a reminder of the vast, protected wild that keeps Roach anchored in its secluded, wooded home.
Roach s’étire sur un relief modelé par les glaces anciennes, offrant aux regards la silhouette imposante de la colline Bunker qui domine les bois environnants. Dans cette contrée du Nouveau-Brunswick, le ciel décline des nuances de cuivre et de violet lorsque le jour s'éteint, baignant les terres hautes d'une clarté presque liquide. À six kilomètres de là, le lac Mud recueille les brumes matinales, tandis que la rivière Magaguadavic poursuit son cours sinueux à quatorze kilomètres, charriant les secrets des forêts denses. Les chutes North Branch, situées à sept kilomètres, ponctuent le silence de la terre par le murmure constant de leurs eaux vives. Roach préserve une intimité farouche, loin des grands axes, où le rythme des journées suit le mouvement lent des ombres sur les pentes. À trente-trois kilomètres, le parc provincial Mactaquac rappelle la grandeur des espaces boisés qui ceinturent Roach, façonnant une identité faite de rigueur forestière et de patience. Ici, la terre exige une présence attentive, et chaque sentier qui serpente entre les arbres semble porter la mémoire des premières familles ayant défriché ces sols rocailleux pour y bâtir un foyer durable, humblement tourné vers la rudesse généreuse de la nature.

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 Roach 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.
