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 Scotch 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.

West Scotch Settlement is a locality in Kings, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. West Scotch Settlement is located at 45.6911°N, 65.8770°W.
West Scotch Settlement rests amidst the quiet, rising elevations of the landscape, defined primarily by the presence of Bull Moose Hill. It lies 16.4 km south-south-east of Arcadia, NB (from Arcadia, NB: bearing 158°T), and is situated 10.3 km west-south-west of Belleisle Creek. The terrain here holds a persistent, cool clarity, where the light at dusk clings to the slopes of the hill, turning the grasses a muted, bruised silver before the shadows lengthen. Jack Lake sits tucked within the surrounding woods, a glassy interval of stillness six kilometers from the center of the settlement. The air carries the scent of damp earth and balsam, a sharpness that lingers even when the wind shifts. The history of West Scotch Settlement reflects a long connection to the rugged, inland agricultural traditions of Kings. Families once cleared the dense timber to establish homesteads, shaping an economy that relied on the yield of the soil and the endurance of those who worked it. Life moves with the deliberate pace of the seasons, far removed from the busier corridors near the Kennebecasis River, which flows fifteen kilometers away. Today, the stillness of the woods and the height of the local terrain define the character of West Scotch Settlement, offering a solitude that feels both heavy and light, like a breath held in the woods.
West Scotch Settlement s’étire sur les terres vallonnées du Nouveau-Brunswick, où la lumière du crépuscule semble s’attarder davantage sur les pentes boisées qui entourent la colline Bull Moose. Dans ce relief singulier, le sol conserve la mémoire des labours anciens, héritage des familles venues d’outre-mer pour défricher ces espaces sauvages. À six kilomètres de là, le lac Jack offre une surface calme qui capte les reflets changeants du ciel, tandis que la rivière Kennebecasis serpente plus loin, marquant le rythme lent de la topographie environnante. La rigueur du climat façonne les habitudes des habitants, exigeant une patience particulière envers les cycles de la terre et le froid qui descend des hauteurs. L’économie locale, longtemps tournée vers une agriculture de subsistance et l’exploitation forestière, se lit encore dans la disposition des granges et le tracé des chemins de terre qui suivent les courbes naturelles du terrain. À West Scotch Settlement, le silence n'est jamais vraiment absolu, porté par le souffle du vent qui balaie les crêtes et le bruissement des arbres. La vie quotidienne y suit une cadence intérieure, loin du tumulte, dans une atmosphère où la rudesse du paysage rencontre une forme de sérénité austère et immuable.
