This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Doheny, Quebec. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

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 Doheny.
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.

Doheny is a hamlet in Lac-Masketsi; Mékinac, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Doheny is located at 47.0712°N, 72.5968°W.
Doheny rests within the rugged folds of the landscape, positioned near the Montagne de la Croix and defined by the persistent presence of the Rivière aux Brochets. It lies 43.4 km south-south-east of La Tuque, QC (from La Tuque, QC: bearing 161°T), and is situated 29.2 km north-north-west of Sainte-Thècle. The air here holds a crisp, mineral edge, catching the low light of late afternoon as it settles against the rising slopes of the Montagne de la Croix. Beyond the immediate reach of the dwellings, the terrain stretches toward the quiet waters of Lac Crête, located four kilometers away, where the stillness of the surface mirrors the dense, encroaching timber. The moisture from the Rivière aux Brochets rises in thin, silver ribbons at dawn, clinging to the needles of the conifers that dominate the horizon. Life in Doheny bears the quiet weight of a geography shaped by timber and the slow, deliberate movement of water. Historically, the reach of the forest dictated the industry of the region, grounding the work of those who lived here in the seasonal cycles of the woods. The proximity to the Rivière aux Brochets once fueled the transport of logs, a practice that defined the local economy long before the modern era smoothed the edges of the wild. Today, Doheny maintains a steady, solitary character, where the sound of the wind through the trees remains the primary measure of the passing day. Residents find their footing in the persistence of the land, acknowledging the influence of the hills and the constant, patient flow of the river.
Doheny se dresse avec une austérité tranquille, là où la terre de Mékinac se plie sous l'influence des reliefs anciens. À l'ombre de la Montagne de la Croix, le sol s'anime d'une rudesse familière, marquée par les activités forestières qui ont longtemps dicté le rythme des jours. La Rivière aux Brochets serpente à proximité, offrant ses eaux sombres aux reflets changeants des crépuscules, tandis que le Lac Crête, distant de quelques kilomètres, retient une lumière plus calme, presque immobile. L'air y est vif, chargé de cette fraîcheur forestière qui semble avoir survécu aux époques de colonisation et aux labeurs des hommes. Doheny conserve une allure de poste avancé, une présence singulière sur ce terrain accidenté où le roc affleure souvent, rappelant la ténacité nécessaire pour habiter ces marges. Ici, le travail et le repos s'accordent au souffle du vent sur les pentes, et le silence qui descend des hauteurs impose une sobriété naturelle aux gestes de ceux qui y demeurent. La géographie elle-même, par ses courbes et ses eaux, définit une existence tournée vers les forces élémentaires, loin des agitations, où chaque détail du paysage participe à une permanence sauvage.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
