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 Barford.
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.

Barford is a village in Coaticook; Coaticook, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Barford is located at 45.1161°N, 71.7956°W.
Barford rests in a quiet fold of the land where the silver current of the Rivière Coaticook defines the valley floor. It lies 2.2 km south-south-east of Coaticook, QC (from Coaticook, QC: bearing 160°T), and is situated 14.2 km south of Compton. The terrain rises from the riverbanks toward the Colline Spring, where the air holds a crisp, mineral clarity even in the heat of a midsummer afternoon. Sunlight lingers long over the fields near Lac à Robert, casting a pale, honeyed light that seems to slow the respiration of the woods. Further afield, the distant, persistent rush of Chutes Cushing provides a low, rhythmic bass note to the stillness that settles over the fields as the sun dips below the horizon. The history of Barford remains rooted in the heavy, fertile earth that has long sustained agricultural life and local industry. Generations have watched the Rivière Coaticook move with a steady, enduring purpose, its path providing both the lifeblood for local harvests and a constant, flowing companion to the daily labor of the people. While the pace of modern life continues to shift, the character of Barford stays defined by these essential, recurring features of the landscape. Life here possesses a weight of substance, marked by the simple, profound necessity of tending to the land and respecting the water that carves its way through the valley.
Barford s'éveille sous une lumière dorée qui glisse doucement sur les pentes de la Colline Spring, révélant la terre fertile où les générations ont patiemment façonné le paysage agricole. La Rivière Coaticook serpente à travers ce territoire, ses eaux accompagnant le labeur quotidien des habitants dont les racines plongent profondément dans cette glaise généreuse. À peine à un kilomètre, le Lac à Robert repose dans une quiétude absolue, miroir immobile où le ciel vient se désaltérer, tandis que le fracas lointain des Chutes Cushing, situées à six kilomètres, ponctue le silence des bois environnants d'une vibration minérale. Barford conserve dans son allure une dignité discrète, celle des lieux qui se suffisent à eux-mêmes, loin de l'agitation des grandes routes. Ici, le vent possède une odeur de foin coupé et d'humidité forestière, une sensation qui rappelle que le sol demeure le véritable maître des lieux. Les champs s'étendent avec une régularité apaisante, signe d'une économie bâtie sur la patience et le respect des cycles naturels. Chaque automne, lorsque la brume s'accroche aux vallons, Barford semble suspendu dans un temps arrêté, offrant à celui qui s'y attarde une plénitude rare, celle d'un espace où l'homme et le relief s'accordent sans heurts.
