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 Island Brook.
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.

Island Brook is a hamlet in Newport; Le Haut-Saint-François, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Island Brook is located at 45.3889°N, 71.4781°W.
Island Brook sits nestled within the undulating terrain of Newport in Le Haut-Saint-François, where the land rises to meet the shadow of the Mont Jordan. It lies 24.4 km west-south-west of Secteur de Franceville, QC (from Secteur de Franceville, QC: bearing 245°T), and is situated 11.9 km east-south-east of Cookshire-Eaton. The Rivière Eaton Nord carves a steady, silver path through the countryside, its movement providing a persistent hum that defines the local atmosphere. Light here possesses a particular clarity, catching the edges of the hills at dusk and turning the slopes into silhouettes of deep violet and slate. While Lac Bouchard rests thirteen kilometers distant and the grandeur of Parc national du Mont-Mégantic sits twenty-five kilometers away, Island Brook remains defined by its immediate, intimate connection to the valley floor and the surrounding woods. The air carries a crispness born from the elevation, a sharp reminder of the Canadian climate that shapes the daily chores and seasonal labors of those who reside along the riverbanks. Settlement in Island Brook grew from the necessity of harnessing the land, with the economy historically anchored in the hard work of agriculture and the careful management of timber. The character of Island Brook emerges from this persistence, reflecting a history of families who cleared fields and built lives in the lee of the hills. Today, the pace remains measured, dictated by the turning of the seasons and the cycle of the frost. Residents move with the purpose of those who understand the temperament of their soil, finding a quiet satisfaction in the maintenance of barns and the preservation of long-standing homesteads. The heritage of the region persists in the architecture of the older buildings, which stand as sturdy, functional markers of a life lived in accordance with the demands of the terrain.
Island Brook déploie ses terres vallonnées dans le Haut-Saint-François, là où les brumes matinales s'attardent sur les méandres de la Rivière Eaton Nord pour sculpter une lumière argentée. Le relief s'élève doucement vers le Mont Jordan, offrant aux regards une topographie robuste qui a façonné le labeur des premiers colons, venus chercher dans ce sol généreux une existence pérenne. À une distance respectueuse, la silhouette lointaine du Parc national du Mont-Mégantic domine l'horizon, tandis que les eaux plus calmes du Lac Bouchard demeurent des sentinelles discrètes, éloignées de quelques lieues seulement. Island Brook conserve la mémoire de ses origines agricoles, ces fermes éparpillées qui ponctuent les pentes et rappellent la résilience de ceux ayant défriché ces espaces sauvages. Aujourd'hui, les chemins sinueux suivent le rythme lent des travaux de la terre, tandis que l'air frais, chargé d'effluves de conifères et de terre humide, imprègne chaque foyer. La vie quotidienne se déploie dans cette simplicité austère, entre le grondement discret de la Rivière Eaton Nord et le silence majestueux des hauteurs environnantes, offrant une sérénité que seule une terre façonnée par les éléments peut véritablement offrir à ses habitants.
