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 Crawford.
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.

Crawford is a locality in Grand-Métis; La Mitis, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Crawford is located at 48.6294°N, 68.0756°W.
Crawford rests upon the low, weathered shelves that overlook the expansive cold waters of the St. Lawrence. It lies 9.7 km east-north-east of Mont-Joli, QC (from Mont-Joli, QC: bearing 60°T), and is situated 10.2 km south-west of Métis-sur-Mer. The land here rises toward the Montagne des Caron, a sentinel of rock and spruce that watches over the valley carved by the Rivière Mitis. The air carries a sharp, salt-crusted clarity, often holding the damp chill that rolls off the estuary to settle in the hollows of the fields. During the height of the summer, the light lingers long against the dark slopes, casting a bruised, violet glow that turns the surface of the nearby Lac Bourgouin into a mirror of polished slate. This terrain, defined by the constant movement of the river toward the sea, keeps the pace of life measured and attentive to the shifting moods of the northern weather. History in Crawford remains visible in the sturdy, salt-worn architecture of the older homesteads that anchor the agricultural landscape. The local economy persists in a quiet dialogue with the land, moving between the seasonal demands of farming and the enduring influence of the river’s currents. Traditions here are kept by those who know the temperament of the Rivière Mitis, marking the turn of the seasons by the ice-break or the first arrival of the spring melt. The presence of the Montagne des Caron provides a constant, immovable horizon for the residents, grounding the daily work of the region in a landscape that demands both respect and a steady hand.
Crawford s'étire avec une humilité tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où l'air salin rencontre la terre ferme dans une respiration lente. Le regard porte vers la Montagne des Caron qui impose sa présence silencieuse sur l'horizon, veillant sur le tracé capricieux de la Rivière Mitis. À quelques lieues de là, les eaux immobiles du Lac Bourgouin conservent le secret des matins brumeux, tandis que la lumière déclinante du soir teinte le rivage de reflets argentés, révélant la texture minérale du sol et la robustesse des terres agricoles qui entourent Crawford. Les habitants, façonnés par la rigueur du climat et la proximité du grand fleuve, cultivent un rapport intime avec ce relief où les vents marins dictent le rythme de chaque journée. La vie s'organise selon les caprices de la marée et la patience des labours, perpétuant une tradition de labeur qui se transmet dans le silence des champs. Ici, chaque bâtisse semble posée avec précaution pour ne pas troubler l'équilibre fragile entre la forêt boréale et l'immensité bleue qui s'ouvre vers le nord, offrant aux passants la sensation d'un monde où la nature conserve ses droits premiers sur l'agitation moderne.

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.
