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 Libbytown.
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.

Libbytown is a hamlet in Barnston-Ouest; Coaticook, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Libbytown is located at 45.1283°N, 71.9989°W.
Libbytown rests within a quiet fold of the landscape, defined by the steady, persistent presence of the Rivière Niger as it carves through the earth near the Colline Butternut. It lies 15.2 km west of Coaticook, QC (from Coaticook, QC: bearing 268°T), and is situated 5.9 km south-east of Ayer's Cliff. The air here holds a particular, crisp weight, especially as the late afternoon light catches the mist rising from the nearby Chutes Burroughs, turning the spray into a fleeting, pale silver before it settles against the darkening slopes. A few kilometers further, the stillness of Lac Hatley anchors the horizon, offering a contrast to the movement of the river, while the distant, shadowed silhouette of Parc national du Mont-Orford looms on the periphery, grounding the view in a vast, ancient geography. History in Libbytown persists in the quiet endurance of its agricultural roots, where the land remains focused on the seasonal demands of farming and the modest, necessary industries that support the surrounding Barnston-Ouest countryside. Life moves according to the demands of the soil and the weather, with the people of Libbytown maintaining a pragmatic, steady approach to their days that reflects the rugged character of the terrain. While the modern world continues to accelerate, the local character retains a deliberate pace, observed in the way the morning mist clings to the fields or how the silence deepens once the sun slips behind the Colline Butternut. It is a region defined by its relationship to the water and the hills, where the simple architecture of home and barn stands as a quiet acknowledgment of generations who have worked the land.
Libbytown s’étire avec une patience minérale sous le regard protecteur de la Colline Butternut, là où le sol des Cantons-de-l'Est se fragmente en collines et vallées douces. La Rivière Niger serpente à travers ce relief, ses eaux sombres dictant le rythme lent des travaux agricoles et le murmure des mémoires paysannes. À quelques kilomètres, les Chutes Burroughs offrent une musique continue, un tumulte d’écume qui ponctue le silence des bois environnants. Lorsque le crépuscule dépose une lumière ambrée sur les terres, l’air devient dense, chargé de cette fraîcheur caractéristique qui descend du Lac Hatley, situé à peine plus loin. Libbytown conserve une allure de modestie farouche, héritée d’une vie tournée vers la culture des champs et le respect des saisons rigoureuses. Les habitants, habitués à la terre ferme, observent le lointain relief du Parc national du Mont-Orford qui ferme l’horizon d’une ligne bleue, presque irréelle. Ici, le quotidien se mesure aux gestes répétés des hommes et des femmes qui ont su dompter cette nature indocile, transformant la rudesse du climat en une force tranquille. La présence de la Rivière Niger structure encore l'esprit des lieux, rappelant que chaque pierre, chaque sentier parcourant les environs de la Colline Butternut, porte en soi l'histoire silencieuse de ceux qui ont bâti leur foyer sur ces terres fertiles.
