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 West Collette.
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.

West Collette is a locality in Northumberland, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. West Collette is located at 46.7711°N, 65.4846°W.
West Collette sits nestled within the quiet, low-lying terrain of Northumberland, defined by the steady rise of Campbelltown Hill. It lies 25.9 km south of Miramichi, NB (from Miramichi, NB: bearing 183°T), and is situated 2.1 km west-south-west of Collette. The air here holds a crisp, damp weight, carrying the scent of spruce and damp earth that clings to the skin as dusk settles over the fields. The landscape is defined by the proximity of the Bay du Vin River, which moves with a slow, dark gravity about 6 km away, and the stillness of North Branch Lake, situated some 5 km from the heart of the settlement. When the light fades, the horizon toward the east softens, and the trees seem to draw closer to the road, creating a solitude that feels both heavy and light. West Collette maintains a character shaped by the steady, modest endurance of those who have long worked the land and timber. Life in West Collette follows the seasonal turn of the woods, where the work of the day is measured by the steady hum of machinery and the quiet maintenance of homesteads. While the expansive beauty of Parc national du Canada Kouchibouguac lies 40 km away, the local focus remains on the immediate intimacy of the surrounding ridges and the drainage of the local watershed. There is a particular sharpness to the winter mornings here, where the frost holds the edges of the fields in a rigid, silver clarity, grounding the residents in a cycle of persistence that prefers the company of the wind to the noise of the outside world.
West Collette s'étire avec une humilité tranquille à l'ombre de la colline Campbelltown, là où la lumière déclinante du soir teinte le sol d'une nuance cuivrée, presque nostalgique. Dans cette étendue du Nouveau-Brunswick, le silence n'est rompu que par le souffle léger qui remonte de la rivière Bay du Vin, serpentant à six kilomètres de distance à travers des terres façonnées par un labeur ancien et obstiné. La vie s'organise ici selon un rythme que dicte la terre elle-même, une existence sobre marquée par les cycles de la culture et le voisinage discret du lac North Branch, dont les eaux calmes, situées à cinq kilomètres, conservent la mémoire des brumes matinales. L'horizon, bien que vaste, semble se resserrer autour de West Collette, lui conférant une intimité rare, loin du tumulte des grands espaces comme le Parc national du Canada Kouchibouguac qui s'étend à quarante kilomètres. Les habitants, héritiers d'une endurance héritée des pionniers, cultivent une relation dépouillée au paysage, une vigilance silencieuse face à l'immensité forestière qui cerne leurs foyers. Il subsiste dans l'air une fraîcheur persistante, rappelant que chaque pierre et chaque sentier de ce terrain accidenté portent la trace d'une persévérance pudique, celle d'une terre qui refuse de se laisser dompter par les modes passagères.

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 West Collette 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.
