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 Fontainebleau.
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.

Fontainebleau is a administrative sector in Weedon; Le Haut-Saint-François, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Fontainebleau is located at 45.6833°N, 71.3833°W.
Fontainebleau rests in a basin where the earth seems to hold its breath against the rising slopes of the Colline Brousseau. It lies 25.6 km north-west of Franceville, QC (from Franceville, QC: bearing 326°T), and is situated 6.6 km east-south-east of Weedon. The Rivière au Saumon carves a steady, silver path through the landscape, its currents dictating the movement of air and the persistence of the local greenery. A short distance away, Lac à la Truite reflects the bruised purples and golds of the evening sky, acting as a quiet mirror for the shifting clouds. While the wider reaches of the Parc national de Frontenac provide a distant, wild border to the region, Fontainebleau maintains an intimate connection to the immediate terrain, where the soil retains the chill of the morning long after the sun has climbed high. The history of Fontainebleau remains anchored in the stubborn industry of those who first cleared the land for wood and harvest. This local economy finds its footing in the traditions of agriculture and forestry, reflecting a way of life that prioritizes the seasonal shift over the rapid pace of urban centers. Residents move with a deliberate purpose, whether navigating the roads near the Colline Brousseau or tending to the lands that abut the Rivière au Saumon. Silence often settles over the houses as the light fades, leaving the residents to the company of the water and the darkening hills.
Fontainebleau déploie ses terres agricoles et ses boisés dans le relief vallonné du Haut-Saint-François, là où la lumière déclinante du soir caresse les crêtes de la Colline Brousseau. L’atmosphère y demeure empreinte d’une sérénité rustique, rythmée par le cours paisible de la Rivière au Saumon qui serpente à travers les plaines fertiles, irriguant une mémoire collective forgée par le labeur des pionniers et le travail de la terre. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac à la Truite offre une surface miroitante où les reflets du ciel s’invitent, tandis que le Parc national de Frontenac, situé à une distance plus éloignée, marque la frontière sauvage de cet horizon protégé. Fontainebleau conserve ce caractère discret, presque confidentiel, où les traditions s’inscrivent dans la patience des jours et la rudesse bienveillante des hivers québécois. L’économie locale, longtemps fidèle à la vocation forestière et agricole, se devine dans la silhouette des bâtiments anciens et dans la manière dont les habitants habitent cet espace partagé. Entre les ondulations du terrain et la fraîcheur des eaux courantes, la vie s'écoule avec une régularité apaisante, offrant à celui qui s'y attarde une vision humble et durable du monde rural.
