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 Abenakis Springs.
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.

Abenakis Springs is a locality in Saint-François-du-Lac; Nicolet-Yamaska, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Abenakis Springs is located at 46.0803°N, 72.8647°W.
Abenakis Springs rests quietly within the Coteau Penagôkwihla, where the land yields to the persistent, low-slung currents of the St. Lawrence. It lies 19.6 km east-north-east of Sorel-Tracy, QC (from Sorel-Tracy, QC: bearing 78°T), and is situated 2.9 km west-north-west of Saint-François-du-Lac. Here, the La Petite Rivière pulls at the edge of the soil, its dark passage tracing a slow, deliberate line through the terrain as the evening light catches the reeds in a pale, amber sheen. The air holds a weight of damp earth and moving water, a stillness that settles over the fields long before the shadows of the distant Lac Saint-Pierre begin to lengthen. In this corner of Saint-François-du-Lac, the horizon stays wide and open, defined by the steady, quiet presence of a landscape that asks for little and offers a vast, unadorned peace. History clings to the banks of the La Petite Rivière, marking Abenakis Springs as a site where the movement of people and the utility of the water have long defined the local character. Agriculture persists as the slow pulse of the Nicolet-Yamaska region, with farmers working the heavy, fertile ground that has sustained families for generations. The legacy of Indigenous presence remains a quiet undercurrent, felt in the way the land is navigated and the respect afforded to the waterways that serve as the lifeblood of the basin. Life here follows the turn of the seasons, a cycle of planting and harvest that aligns with the natural temperament of the riverbanks, where the day ends with the soft, metallic glint of water reflecting a sky that seems to hold more space than anywhere else.
Abenakis Springs s’étire avec une langueur paisible sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le relief s’infléchit pour former le Coteau Penagôkwihla. Les eaux de La Petite Rivière serpentent à travers ces terres basses, charriant dans leur sillage le souvenir des usages anciens et la mémoire des peuples qui, depuis des siècles, ont su lire les signes de cette terre fertile. Lorsque le jour décline, une lumière dorée s’attarde sur les champs, révélant la texture fine d’un sol façonné par les crues et le labeur des générations successives. À une distance de quatorze kilomètres, le vaste Lac Saint-Pierre exerce une influence invisible sur l’atmosphère, apportant une brise légère qui vient rafraîchir les façades des maisons aux toits pentus. L’existence à Abenakis Springs suit le rythme lent des marées intérieures et des travaux agricoles qui marquent les cycles de la vie rurale. Ici, l’identité demeure indissociable de la présence autochtone, dont la sagesse des lieux imprègne encore les berges et les boisés environnants. Les habitants habitués aux caprices du fleuve partagent une discrétion naturelle, cultivant un attachement profond pour cette portion du territoire où chaque courbe du terrain raconte une histoire de patience et de persévérance face aux éléments.
