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 Violette 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.

Violette Settlement is a locality in Madawaska, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Violette Settlement is located at 47.1866°N, 67.8370°W.
Violette Settlement rests quietly upon the rugged, elevated terrain near the slopes of Waddell Hill. It lies 15.8 km east-south-east of Vallée-des-Rivières, NB (from Vallée-des-Rivières, NB: bearing 115°T), and is situated 15.7 km east-south-east of Sainte-Anne-de-Madawaska. The landscape here holds a stillness that gathers in the hollows, where the light at dusk clings to the ridges with a bruised, violet clarity. Seven kilometers away, the waters of the Grande Rivière and the cold, reflective surface of Lac Castonguay mirror the changing moods of the sky, grounding the settlement in a basin of quiet endurance. The air carries the scent of spruce and damp earth, a sharpening cold that marks the transition of the seasons across the high ground. Violette Settlement exists as a collection of homesteads defined by the stubborn geometry of fields carved from the forest, where the horizon is dominated by the weight of the elevation and the encroaching wild. Life in Violette Settlement follows the steady, demanding cycles of a landscape shaped by woodcraft and small-scale agriculture. While the regional center of Grand Falls sits seventeen kilometers distant, the people here maintain a distinct self-reliance, preferring the solitude of the interior to the movement of the larger valley. The economy remains rooted in the timber that borders the fields and the management of family-held plots, a tradition of labor that demands a keen awareness of the frost and the thaw. Every structure and fence line stands as a mark of human persistence against the encroaching spruce, reflecting a history of settling into a terrain that asks for everything and gives back only what is coaxed from the stubborn, stony ground.
Violette Settlement déploie ses terres vallonnées sur les contreforts du Madawaska, là où la lumière déclinante semble s'attarder avec une douceur singulière sur les labours et les boisés. À proximité immédiate, la présence imposante de la colline Waddell sculpte l'horizon, offrant un relief protecteur à ce pays de défricheurs dont l'histoire se confond avec la patience des saisons et le labeur agricole. Dans ce silence habité, le regard porte vers les horizons plus lointains où la Grande Rivière et le lac Castonguay dessinent des lignes de fuite nécessaires à la géographie intime des habitants. La vie à Violette Settlement s'écoule avec la régularité des travaux des champs, conservant cet héritage acadien qui imprègne les gestes quotidiens et la manière dont les familles occupent cet espace de terre ferme. Si le grondement des chutes Grand résonne à une distance respectueuse, il ne trouble jamais la quiétude de ces clairières où l'air, chargé d'une fraîcheur forestière, raffermit les esprits. Les structures de bois et les chemins de terre rappellent une fondation modeste, une volonté de durer malgré les rigueurs du climat boréal qui, par ses contrastes, façonne chaque automne la vigueur de ceux qui habitent ces parages.

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 Violette Settlement 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.
