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 Ward 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.

Ward Settlement is a locality in York, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Ward Settlement is located at 46.2929°N, 66.7023°W.
Ward Settlement occupies a quiet rise of land tucked against the slopes of Zionville Hill, where the air holds the damp, pine-scented promise of the Nashwaak River. It lies 3.2 km east-north-east of Nashwaak, NB (from Nashwaak, NB: bearing 71°T), and is situated 9.2 km north-west of Nashwaak Bridge. The landscape here leans into a stillness defined by the heavy, dark greens of the Acadian forest and the occasional flash of granite beneath a thin layer of topsoil. At dusk, the light clings to the valley, turning the Nashwaak River into a ribbon of hammered silver that divides the woods, while the distant, hidden presence of Stones Lake waits in the cool shadows of the hinterland. Life in Ward Settlement moves with the seasonal expansion and contraction of the forest, a quiet persistence that ignores the frantic pace of the wider world. The history of Ward Settlement lingers in the clearing of timber and the sturdy, unadorned architecture of homesteads that once relied on the river to carry the wealth of the woods toward larger markets. While the proximity of Dunbar Falls and the distant Réserve de la faune O'dell suggest a region defined by its untamed edges, the local economy remains anchored to the land and the quiet industry of those who know how to work it. People here maintain a long-standing familiarity with the terrain, harvesting wood and tending to small plots that have been cleared from the brush over generations. Ward Settlement retains a character forged by isolation and the demanding climate, where the warmth of a woodstove is not merely a comfort but a vital necessity as the long, cold nights settle over the Nashwaak River.
Ward Settlement s'étire avec une patience minérale près de la colline Zionville, là où les brumes matinales s'attardent sur les rives de la rivière Nashwaak. Dans ce repli du Nouveau-Brunswick, la lumière décline avec une douceur particulière, dorant les pentes qui descendent vers les eaux vives. L'histoire de Ward Settlement demeure liée à la rigueur des terres cultivées et au labeur des premiers défricheurs dont les gestes ont façonné ces espaces ouverts. À huit kilomètres de là, le lac Stones offre un miroir immobile au ciel, tandis que le fracas lointain des chutes Dunbar rappelle la force brute des courants qui sillonnent le relief environnant. Plus loin, vers la Réserve de la faune O'dell, le monde végétal reprend ses droits dans un silence dense, protégeant une flore et une faune que les habitants observent avec un respect hérité des traditions rurales. Ici, chaque sentier qui serpente entre les bois et les clairières semble raconter une existence rythmée par la rudesse des hivers et l'éclosion soudaine des printemps. Les résidents entretiennent une relation intime avec cette topographie exigeante, trouvant dans la constance des saisons une manière de persévérer, loin du tumulte, dans une quiétude que seul interrompt le murmure constant de la rivière Nashwaak.

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 Ward 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.
