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 St. Hilaire.
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.

St. Hilaire is a urban community in Madawaska, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a town. St. Hilaire is located at 47.2907°N, 68.3996°W.
St. Hilaire holds a quiet position along the Saint John River, where the earth rises to meet the sky in long, sloping shoulders near the Côte à Blanchette. It lies 9.3 km east of Haut-Madawaska, NB (from Haut-Madawaska, NB: bearing 97°T), and is situated 12.5 km south-west of Edmundston. The air here carries the scent of damp loam and cooling river water, a stillness that deepens as the sun dips behind the western ridges. Light gathers in the hollows of the landscape, turning the surface of the Saint John River into a dark, moving ribbon that reflects the passing clouds. About 14 km away, the waters of Petit lac Saint-Jean hold a different, more contained silence, mirroring the surrounding woods in a depth that feels ancient and undisturbed. St. Hilaire remains defined by the persistent flow of the Saint John River, which has long influenced the movement of people and the clearing of fields along the banks. The local economy stays grounded in the land, with agricultural clearings pushing against the dense tree lines that mark the edge of the province’s northern reaches. Life in St. Hilaire follows the seasonal shift of the light and the slow, deliberate work of those who tend to the soil. There is a particular clarity to the mornings here, a sharp, bracing freshness that reminds anyone present of the resilience required to thrive in such a rugged, river-carved setting.
St. Hilaire s'étire avec une tranquille obstination le long des rives de la rivière Saint John, où l'eau sombre charrie les souvenirs d'une terre marquée par le labeur et la patience des premiers défricheurs. À proximité de Côte à Blanchette, le terrain s'élève en pentes douces, révélant une topographie façonnée par les glaces anciennes et la force lente du courant, tandis que l'air, chargé d'une humidité légère au crépuscule, s'immobilise sur les champs cultivés. La vie à St. Hilaire suit le rythme immuable des travaux agricoles et des exigences de la terre, héritage vivant d'une identité acadienne forgée par l'isolement bienveillant de la vallée. À quatorze kilomètres de là, la présence du Petit lac Saint-Jean oriente les vents et distille une fraîcheur particulière qui pénètre les vergers et les maisons de bois. Les habitants, gardiens d'une mémoire orale transmise avec ferveur, entretiennent des traditions simples, ancrées dans la contemplation du ciel changeant au-dessus de la rivière Saint John. La lumière déclinante y souligne la texture brute des sols fertiles, offrant à St. Hilaire une présence sereine qui semble défier l'érosion des années par la seule force de sa persistance géographique.

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.
