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 Cavignac.
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.

Cavignac is a locality in Saint-Hugues; Les Maskoutains, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Cavignac is located at 45.8242°N, 72.8417°W.
Cavignac rests upon the low, expansive plains of Saint-Hugues, where the horizon stretches wide enough to swallow the light of a setting sun in one long, amber gulp. It lies 23.5 km north-north-east of Saint-Hyacinthe, QC (from Saint-Hyacinthe, QC: bearing 20°T), and is situated 8.8 km south-west of Saint-Guillaume. The land here holds a quiet gravity, defined by the proximity of the Coteau de Salvail which rises as a soft interruption against the otherwise level earth. Nearby, the Rivière Yamaska pulls at the moisture of the fields, its dark currents carving a slow path through the clay-heavy soil. When the air turns crisp in the autumn, the stillness of the landscape feels heavy and deliberate, as if the earth itself is waiting for the frost to seal the season. Agriculture defines the pulse of Cavignac, with fields that demand a patient, methodical labor from those who tend the crops. The history of this locality remains anchored in the stubborn resilience of families who transformed the wet, challenging terrain into productive acreage over generations. Lac Laliberté sits far enough away to remain a distant mirror to the sky, leaving the immediate surroundings of Cavignac to focus on the silver-grey silos and the steady hum of machinery that marks the passing of the harvest. Life here moves with the sun, governed by the cycles of growth and the seasonal shift of shadows across the open expanse.
Cavignac déploie ses terres planes et fertiles dans la région des Maskoutains, où la terre noire semble absorber les dernières lueurs du jour avec une patience toute agricole. À proximité du Coteau de Salvail, le relief s'adoucit pour laisser place aux courbes tendres de la Rivière Yamaska, dont le cours sinueux dicte depuis longtemps le rythme des travaux aux champs. L'air y circule librement, chargé d'une humidité légère qui monte des berges, tandis que le Lac Laliberté, situé à une quinzaine de kilomètres, rappelle la présence d'une eau dormante sous le ciel immense. Cavignac s'inscrit dans cette étendue où l'horizon demeure la seule limite aux ambitions des cultivateurs, façonnant une identité façonnée par la terre et le labeur. Le silence qui s'installe à la tombée de la nuit souligne la rigueur d'un quotidien tourné vers la culture des sols, loin des agitations urbaines. Les habitants entretiennent une relation directe avec ce paysage ouvert, où chaque parcelle labourée porte la trace d'un héritage rural persistant. Dans ce cadre dépouillé de tout artifice, les structures de ferme et les silos se découpent contre le crépuscule, affirmant une présence solide dans la plaine québécoise.
