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 Bois-de-Grandmont.
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.

Bois-de-Grandmont is a resort area in Saint-Gédéon; Lac-Saint-Jean-Est, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Bois-de-Grandmont is located at 48.5317°N, 71.7883°W.
Bois-de-Grandmont rests along the expansive, cooling currents of Lac Saint-Jean, where the horizon meets the sky in a long, unbroken line. It lies 10.1 km west-south-west of Alma, QC (from Alma, QC: bearing 259°T), and is situated 13.1 km north-north-east of Métabetchouan–Lac-à-la-Croix. The terrain near Bois-de-Grandmont rises toward the slopes of the Mont Résimond-Ratté, grounding the local geography in a quiet, persistent elevation. As the Saguenay River draws the eye toward the distance, the light at dusk settles over the water with a heavy, silver stillness that seems to suspend the movement of the day. The air here carries a crispness born from the vastness of the lake, lending a sharp, clear edge to the silhouette of the trees that define the shoreline. Life in Saint-Gédéon within the Lac-Saint-Jean-Est region maintains a focus on the land and the water, reflecting the enduring character of those who settle near such significant natural boundaries. While Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon sits 23 km away, the influence of the wider wild surroundings remains present in the daily habits of the people, who value the steady, seasonal shifts of the northern climate. The economy here lingers on the practicalities of a landscape defined by its waterways and forests, where the work of the day is measured by the rising and falling of the sun. Even in the quietest hours, the presence of the Saguenay River provides a constant, low-frequency hum that anchors the identity of Bois-de-Grandmont within the broader scope of the region.
Bois-de-Grandmont s’étire avec une tranquille obstination sur les rives du Lac Saint-Jean, là où la lumière du crépuscule semble s'attarder plus longuement sur les eaux calmes. La proximité du Mont Résimond-Ratté imprime une verticalité sombre à l'horizon, contrastant avec l'étendue fluide qui se déploie vers les rives de la rivière Saguenay. Dans ce secteur de Saint-Gédéon, le terrain conserve une mémoire agricole, marquée par des terres travaillées avec patience, loin de l'agitation des grands centres. Les résidents observent le passage des jours en harmonie avec ces reliefs familiers, tandis qu'à vingt-trois kilomètres de là, le Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon offre une respiration sauvage à ceux qui cherchent la solitude des espaces protégés. Bois-de-Grandmont cultive une identité discrète, façonnée par les vents qui descendent du nord et la rigueur d'un climat qui impose sa propre cadence aux travaux de la terre. Les habitations se tournent vers le grand lac, recevant les premières lueurs du matin, tandis que l'air, chargé d'une humidité légère, porte les parfums de la forêt et des courants fluviaux. Cette terre, façonnée par l'effort humain et la présence imposante des éléments naturels, demeure une présence constante dans le paysage, offrant aux regards une perspective singulière sur la géographie du Lac-Saint-Jean-Est.
