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 Stanstead-Est.
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.

Stanstead-Est is a municipality in Stanstead-Est; Coaticook, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Stanstead-Est is located at 45.0916°N, 72.0569°W.
Stanstead-Est rests in a quiet embrace of rolling terrain, defined by the prominent rise of the Colline Pinkham that watches over the land. It lies 20.3 km west-south-west of Coaticook, QC (from Coaticook, QC: bearing 257°T), and is situated 8.4 km south of Ayer's Cliff. The air here carries a crisp, lingering chill, and the light at dusk settles long and thin across the fields, turning the grasses into brittle stalks of pale gold. While the Rivière Niger flows through the distance some 8 km away, the immediate surroundings favor the stillness of Étang Peasley, which sits about 4 km from the center. The earth feels firm and ancient beneath the boots of those who walk its edges, holding the quiet weight of a landscape that has long looked toward the horizon. Life in Stanstead-Est maintains a steady focus on the land, echoing the agricultural heritage that first brought settlers to these slopes. While the rugged descent of Chutes Burroughs is found 7 km away, the local economy remains tied to the modest, hardworking character of the regional soil. Residents occasionally look toward the distant silhouette of Parc national du Mont-Orford, some 30 km off, yet they find their own contentment in the small, daily tasks that define a rural existence. The winters arrive with a heavy, muffling silence, and the community goes about its business with a practical, grounded grace that values the endurance of the seasons over the haste of the modern world.
Stanstead-Est s'étire sur des terres où le sol garde la mémoire des labeurs paysans et des vastes horizons de la région de Coaticook. À l'approche du crépuscule, une lumière dorée descend sur la Colline Pinkham, enveloppant les fermes d'une clarté qui semble suspendre le souffle des champs. L'air y est vif, chargé de cette odeur terreuse propre aux plateaux québécois, tandis que le relief dessine une ligne douce contre le ciel. Non loin, l'Étang Peasley miroite dans un silence profond, offrant un miroir immobile au passage des nuages, tandis que la Rivière Niger chemine à travers les vallons avec une constance paisible. Le grondement lointain des Chutes Burroughs rappelle la force tranquille qui anime ces terres depuis des générations, bien avant que les routes ne s'y tracent. Les résidents de Stanstead-Est perpétuent un mode de vie rythmé par les récoltes et le respect des éléments, loin du tumulte des grandes agglomérations. Même si le Parc national du Mont-Orford impose sa silhouette majestueuse à une certaine distance, Stanstead-Est conserve une identité singulière, forgée par l'isolement bienveillant des plaines et la rudesse douce de ses hivers, demeurant un espace où la terre impose son rythme propre à ceux qui la cultivent.
