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 Dépôt-de-l'Île.
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.

Dépôt-de-l'Île is a locality in Lac-Marguerite; Antoine-Labelle, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Dépôt-de-l'Île is located at 46.9153°N, 75.7936°W.
Dépôt-de-l'Île rests as a quiet outpost along the expansive, shifting shoreline of Réservoir Baskatong. It lies 46.4 km north-north-west of Mont-Laurier, QC (from Mont-Laurier, QC: bearing 332°T), and is situated 35.2 km north-west of Ferme-Neuve. The land here holds a particular stillness, where the scent of cedar and damp earth rises to meet the cool, thin air of the northern woods. In the late afternoon, the light flattens against the water, turning the surface of the reservoir into a sheet of hammered pewter that seems to swallow the horizon. While the Rivière Petawaga flows through the deeper reaches of the surrounding bush some 8 km away, Dépôt-de-l'Île remains oriented toward the reservoir, its character defined by the necessity of managing the vast, timber-rich hinterlands that stretch toward the distant Réserve écologique Tapani. The history of Dépôt-de-l'Île sits firmly in the practical requirements of the forest industry, functioning as a point of transit where the harvest of the interior once gathered before moving toward the mills. Today, the economy leans heavily on the seasonal pulse of the reservoir, drawing those who seek the solitude of the woods or the quiet patience required for fishing in deep, dark waters. Life here moves with the sun, marked by the mechanical hum of small engines and the occasional calls of birds echoing across the water. Residents of Dépôt-de-l'Île maintain a stark, functional relationship with the landscape, finding a strange comfort in the way the wind carries the chill of the reservoir through the trees, reminding anyone present that the wilderness here is not an ornament, but the primary tenant of the region.
Dépôt-de-l'Île s’étire avec une patience minérale le long des rives vastes du Réservoir Baskatong, là où le ciel s’abaisse pour embrasser les eaux sombres. La lumière décline sur ce relief accidenté, dorant les aiguilles des conifères d’une lueur presque fragile tandis que le silence s’installe, interrompu seulement par le souffle discret du vent. À quelques kilomètres, le murmure de la Rivière Petawaga rappelle la persistance des courants qui façonnent depuis toujours le travail du bois et la vie des hommes dans ce secteur d’Antoine-Labelle. Le sol, marqué par une rudesse ancienne, porte la mémoire des draveurs et des travailleurs forestiers qui ont autrefois établi leurs campements sur ces terres sauvages. Plus loin, vers la Réserve écologique Tapani, la forêt reprend ses droits dans une immobilité solennelle. Dépôt-de-l'Île conserve cette allure de halte nécessaire, un espace où la rigueur du climat dicte le rythme des journées et la sobriété des gestes. Ici, l’horizon se déploie sans artifice, offrant aux regards la ligne pure du réservoir et la densité des boisés environnants, dans une simplicité qui semble défier l’agitation du monde moderne par sa seule présence silencieuse et durable.
