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 Grenon.
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.

Grenon is a locality in Eeyou Istchee Baie-James; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Grenon is located at 49.6533°N, 74.3036°W.
Grenon rests within the rugged, quiet expanse of Eeyou Istchee Baie-James, defined by a landscape that holds the weight of northern stone and enduring cold. It lies 10.9 km south-south-west of La Mine-Corner Bay, QC (from La Mine-Corner Bay, QC: bearing 205°T), and is situated 29.3 km south of Chibougamau. Nearby, the land rises toward the Colline de la Sidérite, a silent sentinel overlooking the scrub and resilient spruce that define the horizon. The light here at dusk possesses a singular, bruised clarity, turning the sky a pale violet that settles heavily against the earth. Just a short distance away, the quiet waters of Lac Pierre mirror the low clouds, while the Rivière Énard traces a path through the terrain eleven kilometers distant, carving a slow, deliberate passage through the rock. The history of Grenon is bound to the mineral-rich character of the region, where the extraction of resources has shaped the local economy and the daily lives of those who dwell in this remote northern reaches. Men and women here work with the stubborn patience of the land itself, moving through seasons where the air tastes of frozen pine and iron. While the industrial legacy of the north remains present in the infrastructure of the surrounding sites, the pace of life in Grenon is dictated by the turning of the seasons and the demands of the bush. Traditions endure in the quiet gathering of families and the long-held knowledge of the territory, ensuring that Grenon retains a distinct, solitary character amidst the vast, unyielding reach of the Canadian shield.
Grenon déploie sa silhouette austère sous le ciel vaste du Nord-du-Québec, là où la lumière déclinante du soir semble s'attarder sur les minéraux anciens. La présence imposante de la Colline de la Sidérite domine l'horizon, rappelant aux rares voyageurs le poids géologique de ces terres façonnées par l'industrie et le travail acharné des hommes. À peine un kilomètre sépare le calme des habitations des rives du Lac Pierre, dont les eaux sombres captent les reflets changeants des aurores boréales. Plus loin, le murmure lointain de la Rivière Énard rythme le silence des forêts environnantes, apportant une fraîcheur humide qui imprègne l'atmosphère. Grenon vit au rythme lent de cette étendue sauvage, entre la rudesse du sol minéral et la sérénité des espaces boréaux. Les habitants y cultivent une endurance héritée des traditions du territoire, trouvant dans la proximité immédiate de cette nature sauvage une forme de solitude apaisante. Chaque journée s'étire dans une clarté limpide, soulignant la texture des roches et la densité des boisés qui entourent les structures humaines, faisant de Grenon un point de repère solitaire, presque suspendu dans la lumière froide qui baigne la région.
