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 Hereford Hill.
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.

Hereford Hill is a hamlet in East Hereford; Coaticook, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Hereford Hill is located at 45.0436°N, 71.5514°W.
Hereford Hill rises as a firm, rounded presence within the La Grande Côte, marking the topography of East Hereford with a quiet, persistent gravity. It lies 22.3 km east-south-east of Coaticook, QC (from Coaticook, QC: bearing 117°T), and is situated 30.9 km south-east of Compton. The land here holds the damp chill of the morning mist long after the sun has climbed, clinging to the slopes where the forest thickens and the soil turns heavy with the minerals of the Canadian Shield. To the west, the Rivière Hall carves a dark, insistent path through the lowlands, its movement a constant, low-frequency hum beneath the silence of the trees. Not far from the base of the rise, the calm surface of Lac Wallace reflects the changing sky, offering a mirror to the clouds that drift over the high ground. The air around Hereford Hill carries a crisp, sharpened clarity, smelling of wet cedar and the cold stone that lies just beneath the surface of the earth. The history of the region is written in the stubborn clearing of timber and the slow, deliberate cultivation of the hillsides that once supported a modest but resilient local economy. Families here have long balanced the demands of seasonal agriculture with the cycles of the timber harvest, building their lives around the rhythms of the seasons. While the distant rush of Chutes Cushing reminds one of the water’s power, the daily life at Hereford Hill is defined by the steady, quiet work of maintaining the fences and the woodlots that define the property lines. There is a particular stillness in the way the twilight settles over the valley, deepening the shadows until the distinction between the rising land and the horizon begins to blur. People here move with a practiced caution, respecting the steepness of the terrain and the long winters that demand preparation and a certain stoic independence.
Hereford Hill s’élève avec une assurance tranquille au sein de la Grande Côte, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous une lumière de fin de journée qui étire les ombres sur les pentes. Ce relief, qui domine les terres agricoles de East Hereford, observe la Rivière Hall serpenter à cinq kilomètres en contrebas, charriant dans ses eaux vives une mémoire ancienne que les habitants reconnaissent encore à la couleur de la glaise. À sept kilomètres, le Lac Wallace offre un miroir immobile au ciel, tandis que les Chutes Cushing, distantes de seize kilomètres, scandent le rythme minéral de ce territoire robuste. La vie à Hereford Hill se déploie dans une frugalité choisie, portée par des lignées qui connaissent le poids de l'outil et la patience des récoltes, héritiers d'une ténacité qui ne s'embarrasse pas de grands discours. Ici, le vent possède une franchise qui nettoie le regard, balayant les vallons avant de se perdre dans les boisés denses. La terre, travaillée par des mains habituées aux rigueurs climatiques, maintient une permanence rassurante, refusant les artifices pour privilégier la solidité des granges et le silence des forêts. Hereford Hill demeure ainsi, une présence immobile et fière, façonnée par l'eau et le roc, dans une région où chaque sentier raconte la persévérance des hommes face aux éléments.

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.
