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 Clarkes Hollow.
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.

Clarkes Hollow is a locality in Durham, Ontario, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Clarkes Hollow is located at 43.8700°N, 79.1314°W.
Clarkes Hollow rests tucked against the modest rise of Dicksons Hill, where the land retains a quiet, persistent composure beneath the changing light of the seasons. It lies 10.6 km east of Markham, ON (from Markham, ON: bearing 94°T), and is situated 7.7 km west of Ajax. The air here holds a clarity that sharpens the edges of the horizon, especially as dusk settles over the fields and softens the transition between earth and sky. While the Rivière Rouge winds its path some eight kilometres away, the immediate surroundings of Clarkes Hollow feel anchored in the stillness of the local topography, distant from the more expansive protected wildness found ten kilometres away at the Parc urbain national du Canada de la Rouge. The history of Clarkes Hollow reflects the steady labor of those who first cleared the timber to make room for homesteads, turning the heavy soil toward a productive, agricultural future. Today, the economy of Clarkes Hollow leans into a blend of quiet residential life and agricultural stewardship, where the pace of the day is marked by the movement of the sun across the open acreage rather than the rush of distant commerce. People here maintain a long-standing connection to the land, preserving a character that values the solitary task and the seasonal shift of crops. Even now, the late afternoon sun illuminates the dry stalks of harvest, casting long, lean shadows that linger across the fences, marking the passage of another day in a place that prefers to keep its own counsel.

Detailed location data for Clarkes Hollow includes the postal code (L1V), telephone area code (226, 249, 289, 343, 365, 382, 416, 437, 519, 548, 613, 647, 705, 742, 807, 905). These are among the most commonly searched location details for any Canadian city or town.
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 Clarkes Hollow 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.
