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 Keewatin.
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.

Keewatin is a community in Kenora, Ontario, Canada. It is classified as a town. Keewatin is located at 49.7592°N, 94.5556°W.
Keewatin occupies a rugged stretch of land defined by the expansive, island-dotted waters of Lake of the Woods. It lies 3.6 km west of Kenora, ON (from Kenora, ON: bearing 262°T), and is situated 12.0 km east of Laclu. The terrain rises toward the Orange Hill, where the evening light catches the stone and pine in a way that makes the horizon feel perpetually vast. Residents often watch the shadows stretch toward the Black Sturgeon River, which flows through the quiet wilderness fourteen kilometers away. Beyond the immediate reach of the shoreline, the landscape holds a stillness that persists even as the seasons turn, with the deeper woods offering a solitude that mirrors the depth of the water itself. Those seeking the wilder reaches of the region often travel toward Rushing River Provincial Park, located twenty-five kilometers distant, to experience the raw, unadorned character of the northern forest. History in Keewatin carries the weight of its industrial past, once anchored by the mills that harnessed the local waterways to drive the economy. The sound of the water remains a constant presence, a reminder of the industry that drew people to these shores long ago. Today, the pace of life reflects the steady, deliberate movements of a place that values its connection to the land and the endurance of its people. Keewatin maintains a quiet dignity, where the heritage of the workers who built the foundations of the settlement still lingers in the architecture and the memories of the families who stayed. Life here moves with the sun and the cycles of the lake, preserving a character that is as resilient as the granite beneath the soil.

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 Keewatin 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.
