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 Wakem Corner.
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.

Wakem Corner is a locality in Carleton, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Wakem Corner is located at 46.4888°N, 67.6914°W.
Wakem Corner sits nestled within the high, quiet reaches of Wakem Hill, where the air possesses the crisp, thin clarity of a high-altitude sanctuary. It lies 8.1 km north-west of Carleton North, NB (from Carleton North, NB: bearing 316°T), and is situated 7.8 km west-south-west of Bath. The light at dusk here behaves like a slow-moving liquid, pooling in the hollows of the terrain and turning the dark pines into silhouettes that seem to hold their breath against the coming frost. Leith Lake shimmers just two kilometers away, its surface a polished mirror reflecting the shifting moods of the sky, while the distant, steady presence of the Saint John River anchors the landscape some six kilometers beyond the slopes. The land retains a certain wild, unyielding composure, indifferent to the passage of seasons, yet alive with the subtle rustle of winds traversing the higher elevations. Settlement in Wakem Corner grew from the modest ambitions of those who found purpose in the rugged, forested slopes, establishing an economy rooted in the patient extraction of timber and the careful clearing of mountain soil. Life here maintains a deliberate, measured pace, influenced by the proximity of the wilderness and the distant, sprawling expanse of the Réserve de la faune du Club Kindness thirty-six kilometers to the north. Traditions remain quiet and internal, passed down through families who have learned to read the shifting patterns of the clouds over Wakem Hill as if they were maps of the future. The stillness of the morning is broken only by the sharp, rhythmic snap of wood being readied for the hearth, a sound that carries the weight of a long, shared history of endurance against the northern cold.
Wakem Corner s'étire sur les flancs ondulants de la colline Wakem, là où la lumière déclinante du soir accroche les crêtes avec une douceur presque palpable. Le terrain, façonné par les travaux agricoles qui ont forgé l'identité de ces terres, offre des perspectives dégagées sur une nature sobre, marquée par la proximité des eaux paisibles du lac Leith qui scintillent à deux kilomètres à peine. En contrebas, le cours de la rivière Saint John serpente à six kilomètres, imposant son rythme lent et régulier à cette étendue rurale qui semble retenir son souffle. L'air y possède une texture fine, imprégnée de la senteur des sols travaillés et de l'humidité montante des boisés environnants, tandis que le silence, seulement rompu par le bruissement du vent dans les hautes herbes, souligne l'isolement bienveillant de la contrée. Si la Réserve de la faune du Club Kindness demeure un horizon lointain situé à trente-six kilomètres, Wakem Corner cultive son propre équilibre, une existence quotidienne rythmée par la rudesse du climat et la constance des travaux des champs. La solitude y est une alliée, transformant chaque fin de journée en un moment de contemplation où le ciel semble descendre sur les vallons pour se fondre dans la terre sombre et fertile de ce secteur privilégié.

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 Wakem Corner 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.
