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 Sweeney Settlement.
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.

Sweeney Settlement is a locality in Madawaska, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Sweeney Settlement is located at 47.5187°N, 68.4202°W.
Sweeney Settlement sits tucked within the quiet, rolling terrain of the province, marked by a terrain that holds the morning frost long after the sun has climbed the horizon. It lies 17.3 km east of Dégelis, NB (from Dégelis, NB: bearing 101°T), and is situated 11.8 km south-west of Halfway Depot. The landscape here is defined by a deep, wooded stillness, where the air carries a crisp, pine-scented clarity that seems to sharpen the edges of the horizon. Near the Côte à Blanchette, the land maintains a steady, resolute posture, offering a vantage point over the surrounding slopes that catch the amber light of late afternoon. While the Rivière Madawaska flows through its course some 5 km away, the settlement itself feels sheltered, existing in a pocket of solitude where the shadows stretch long and cool against the earth. The history of Sweeney Settlement remains grounded in the rugged labor of those who first cleared these hills, establishing a life defined by the seasonal turns of the forest and the soil. Residents here often look toward the distant presence of La Queue-de-Poêlon, located 7 km away, as a familiar landmark that anchors the horizon during the changing seasons. The local economy persists with a quiet efficiency, focused on the steady stewardship of the land and the resources provided by the surrounding timber and field. For those seeking the wider expanse of the natural world, the proximity of Second Falls at 15 km or the sprawling, protected reaches of Parc national du Lac-Témiscouata, situated 33 km away, provides a connection to the broader wilderness. Daily life in Sweeney Settlement moves with the deliberate pace of a place that understands the value of patience, where the evening quiet is as much a part of the local character as the work done during the day.
Sweeney Settlement s'étire sur les terres hautes du Nouveau-Brunswick, là où le sol semble retenir une lumière dorée et mélancolique lorsque le jour décline sur les champs. À proximité immédiate de Côte à Blanchette, le terrain ondule doucement, offrant une respiration à ceux qui cultivent cette terre exigeante sous un climat qui marque la peau et les mémoires. La Rivière Madawaska, dont le cours sinueux s'écoule à environ cinq kilomètres, dicte une cadence ancienne à la vallée, tandis que les brumes matinales s'attardent souvent vers La Queue-de-Poêlon, située à sept kilomètres, enveloppant les sapins d'un mystère silencieux. Plus loin, la rudesse des chutes Second se devine à quinze kilomètres par un sourd murmure qui parvient jusqu'aux porches des maisons, rappelant la puissance brute des éléments. Les habitants de Sweeney Settlement partagent une existence façonnée par cette proximité géographique, cultivant des traditions héritées d'une ténacité agricole profonde, loin des grands axes. Parfois, le regard porte jusqu'au Parc national du Lac-Témiscouata, à trente-trois kilomètres, où la nature sauvage impose sa loi immuable. Ici, le vent possède une texture particulière, chargée des parfums de terre fraîche et de bois résineux, un équilibre fragile et beau qui définit la singulière persistance de Sweeney Settlement face à l'immensité du Nord.
