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 Riceburg.
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.

Riceburg is a hamlet in Stanbridge East; Brome-Missisquoi, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Riceburg is located at 45.1358°N, 72.9333°W.
Riceburg occupies a quiet corner of the Brome-Missisquoi landscape, cradled near the rising ground of Colline Fox. It lies 31.4 km south-east of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, QC (from Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, QC: bearing 127°T), and is situated 4.6 km east-north-east of Bedford. The Rivière aux Brochets cuts through the earth here, its current pulling steadily against the banks as it moves through the low-lying terrain of Stanbridge East. Light settles heavy and golden over the fields during the late afternoon, turning the surface of the water into a dark, polished ribbon that mirrors the surrounding trees. Within a short distance, the landscape holds the stillness of Étang Pell and the distant, rushing presence of Chutes Hunter, features that define the horizon of this countryside. Agriculture remains the pulse of the land around Riceburg, where the seasonal shift of crops dictates the pace of the days. The history of the region is rooted in the early settlement of the Eastern Townships, where families built their lives along the winding path of the Rivière aux Brochets to harness the power of the water. Buildings of weathered stone and timber stand as markers of a time when milling and local industry relied entirely on the strength of the stream. Despite the changing pressures of the modern world, the life of the residents continues to align with the changing seasons, marked by the smell of damp soil in the spring and the sharp, crisp air that arrives with the first frost.
Riceburg s'étire avec une humilité tranquille dans le paysage de Stanbridge East, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous la lumière dorée du déclin du jour. Le regard s'attarde sur la silhouette immobile de la Colline Fox, sentinelle minérale qui domine les terres agricoles, tandis que la Rivière aux Brochets serpente avec une lenteur calculée, nourrissant de ses eaux sombres les racines des saules et les souvenirs des anciens moulins. À quelques lieues de là, les Chutes Hunter murmurent un chant constant, écho sonore qui accompagne les travaux des champs et le rythme des jours. Plus loin, vers les terres plus hautes, l'Étang Pell dissimule ses eaux calmes dans un repli de la campagne, offrant un silence absolu aux oiseaux migrateurs. Riceburg conserve une identité forgée par le labeur et le respect des saisons, portée par ces familles qui ont su lire la fertilité du sol et la force du courant. Les habitations, modestes et robustes, semblent puiser leur force dans ce relief doux, protégées par le souffle régulier qui monte des plaines de Brome-Missisquoi. L'air y est chargé d'une humidité légère, cette fraîcheur propre aux vallées fluviales où la nature, sans artifice, dicte la mesure d'une vie sobre et profondément liée à ses eaux et à ses hauteurs.
