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 Russelltown.
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.

Russelltown is a locality in Northumberland, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Russelltown is located at 46.5429°N, 66.1745°W.
Russelltown rests quietly against the rising contours of Molasses Hill, a sentinel of earth overlooking the dark, insistent pulse of the Southwest Miramichi River. It lies 33.0 km south-west of Miramichi River Valley, NB (from Miramichi River Valley, NB: bearing 232°T), and is situated 5.1 km west-south-west of Doaktown. The air here holds a particular weight at dusk, cooling rapidly as the shadows stretch from the banks of the Southwest Miramichi River toward the dense, timbered slopes of Molasses Hill. Those who walk the perimeter of Russelltown learn the specific language of the river, where the water moves with a gravity that seems to pull the light from the sky, leaving the horizon a bruised, luminous purple long after the sun has slipped behind the trees. The history of Russelltown lingers in the quiet persistence of its inhabitants, who have long looked to the surrounding woodlands and the flow of the Southwest Miramichi River to define their livelihood. While the proximity of Devils Back Lake offers a solitary retreat for those seeking the stillness of deeper waters, the life of Russelltown remains anchored to the traditional rhythms of the valley. Local industry has historically turned toward the harvest of the forest, an occupation that demands a keen awareness of the changing seasons and the temperament of the land. Even now, the daily existence in Russelltown carries a deliberate, watchful quality, as if the residents are perpetually listening for the soft, sudden shifts in the wind that signal the turning of the weather.
Russelltown se dresse avec une humilité silencieuse sous les cieux vastes de Northumberland, observant le passage des heures sur les rives de la rivière Southwest Miramichi. L’air y possède cette densité particulière des terres intérieures, chargée de l’humidité des forêts et de l’odeur terreuse qui monte des berges lorsque la lumière du crépuscule bascule vers le bleu. À proximité, le relief s'élève doucement vers la colline Molasses, dont les pentes boisées semblent protéger les habitations des vents dominants. Les résidents de Russelltown connaissent le rythme lent de ces terres où la mémoire des anciens se mêle aux travaux de la terre et aux pratiques forestières héritées des générations passées. À peine à six kilomètres, le lac Devils Back repose dans une quiétude minérale, offrant aux environs une profondeur sauvage que seul vient troubler le frémissement des pins. La vie quotidienne ici se déploie sans artifice, rythmée par l'entretien des parcelles et la surveillance des eaux qui, depuis toujours, dictent la marche des hommes. Il se dégage de ces étendues une poésie austère, une permanence qui ignore les agitations du monde pour mieux s'attacher à la texture rugueuse de l'écorce et à la clarté froide des matins sur la rivière.

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 Russelltown 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.
