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 Côte-Cachée.
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.

Côte-Cachée is a locality in Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel; Les Chenaux, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Côte-Cachée is located at 46.4756°N, 72.6928°W.
The landscape surrounding Côte-Cachée rises with a quiet, deliberate presence beneath the shadow of the Mont Georges. It lies 18.7 km north-west of Trois-Rivières, QC (from Trois-Rivières, QC: bearing 322°T), and is situated 8.3 km south-south-east of Shawinigan. The Rivière Cachée serves as the lifeblood of this terrain, its currents cutting through the earth with a persistence that defines the local character. Beyond the immediate banks, the land holds a stillness that lingers long after the sun dips behind the heights, casting long, cool shadows across the fields. While Lac Guylvie rests in a tranquil hollow only 2 km away, the distant, muffled roar of the Chutes de Shawinigan, situated 8 km from the center, provides a constant, low-frequency pulse to the air. The light here at dusk possesses a singular clarity, turning the horizon into a sharp silhouette that emphasizes the rugged, unyielding nature of the terrain. History in Côte-Cachée remains rooted in the practical demands of the land, where early industry relied heavily on the natural movement of water and the resilience of the surrounding forest. The economy continues to reflect a deep connection to the regional resources, with residents maintaining a life that honors the traditional cycles of the seasons. Agriculture and modest local enterprises anchor the daily habits of the people, keeping the pace of life measured and observant. Even as modern influences reach toward the outskirts of Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel and Les Chenaux, the people maintain a distinct cultural reserve, valuing the quiet continuity of their surroundings. This focus on the immediate environment ensures that the identity of Côte-Cachée stays clear and unadorned, reflecting the honest, hardworking spirit of those who make their home within this specific reach of the landscape.
Côte-Cachée s'étire avec une humilité tranquille dans le relief accidenté qui précède les hauteurs du Mont Georges. Ici, la lumière du crépuscule glisse sur les pentes pour venir s'attarder longuement sur les rives de la Rivière Cachée, dont les eaux semblent porter en elles le secret d'une géologie silencieuse. Le Lac Guylvie, paisible miroir à peine troublé par le souffle du vent, repose à deux kilomètres de distance, observant la vie qui s'écoule entre les terres agricoles et les boisés. À huit kilomètres, le fracas lointain des Chutes de Shawinigan impose son rythme sourd, une présence constante qui scande le calme de la campagne environnante. Les habitants, héritiers d'un labeur qui a su dompter les sols ingrats, cultivent un lien indéfectible avec cette terre où le passage de l'ombre et du soleil définit chaque jour. Dans les espaces ouverts de Côte-Cachée, l'air porte une fraîcheur particulière, chargée des effluves de la forêt et de l'humidité des cours d'eau, rappelant à quiconque s'y attarde que le paysage dicte ici les manières d'être. La sobriété des bâtisses et le tracé des chemins témoignent d'une existence tournée vers la terre, où chaque geste, chaque récolte, perpétue une mémoire locale qui refuse de s'effacer sous le poids du monde moderne.
