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 Farnam's Corner.
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.

Farnam's Corner is a hamlet in Dunham; Brome-Missisquoi, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Farnam's Corner is located at 45.1256°N, 72.7289°W.
Farnam's Corner rests within the quiet, sloping terrain of Dunham, where the earth holds the cool, damp breath of Brome-Missisquoi. It lies 30.4 km south of Granby, QC (from Granby, QC: bearing 181°T), and is situated 8.9 km south of Cowansville. The light at dusk here settles heavy and amber against the rise of the Colline des Chênes, casting long, thin shadows that seem to anchor the buildings to the bedrock. While the Rivière aux Brochets flows eleven kilometers away, the moisture of the lowlands clings to the air, making the evening silence feel thick and expectant. Seven kilometers to the east, the stillness of Lac Selby mirrors the sky, providing a distant, glassy horizon that defines the boundary of the local view. Farther afield, the presence of Chutes Hunter at thirteen kilometers and the expansive reach of Parc national de la Yamaska thirty-five kilometers away suggest a landscape shaped by deep, glacial memory and slow-moving water. History in Farnam's Corner lingers in the weathered stone foundations and the persistence of small-scale agriculture that defines the local economy. The people here move with a deliberate care, tending to orchards and fields that have sustained families for generations, their daily work marked by the turning of the soil and the seasonal shifts in the wind. This is a region where the architecture reflects a pragmatic devotion to the land, standing firm against the harsh winters that define the northern climate. During the height of the summer, the air carries a faint, sharp scent of ripening fruit, a reminder that the productivity of these acres remains the heart of the collective identity. Farnam's Corner persists not through grand gestures, but through the quiet, consistent labor of those who know how to read the clouds and respect the changing seasons.
Farnam's Corner déploie ses terres fertiles sous un ciel vaste, là où les ondulations du relief rappellent la présence bienveillante de la Colline des Chênes, sentinelle immobile veillant sur le travail des hommes. Dans ce secteur de Dunham, la lumière du crépuscule s’étire avec une langueur particulière sur les champs labourés, offrant une clarté douce qui semble suspendre le souffle des labours. À quelques kilomètres, la Rivière aux Brochets serpente dans une vallée paisible, tandis que le Lac Selby conserve dans ses eaux sombres le silence des matinées brumeuses. Le paysage se dessine par la patience de ceux qui ont défriché ces sols, transformant l'horizon en une étendue où le rythme des récoltes dicte la mesure des jours. Les Chutes Hunter, situées à une distance mesurée, ajoutent un murmure constant à la géographie environnante, rappelant la vigueur des cours d'eau qui irriguent cette contrée agricole. Loin de l'agitation, Farnam's Corner s'inscrit dans une sérénité robuste, portée par le vent qui descend du nord et balaie les plaines jusqu'aux lointaines frondaisons du Parc national de la Yamaska. Chaque sentier, chaque clôture de bois, compose une existence simple, où la terre exigeante et la rudesse du climat forgent une identité paisible, indifférente aux modes passagères.
