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 Halet.
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.

Halet is a locality in Val-d'Or; La Vallée-de-l'Or, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Halet is located at 48.1160°N, 78.0092°W.
Halet rests within the rugged, mineral-rich expanse of Val-d'Or, where the boreal horizon stretches wide and indifferent under a pale northern sun. It lies 9.1 km east-south-east of Malartic, QC (from Malartic, QC: bearing 104°T), and is situated 16.4 km west of Val-d'Or. Le Petit Lac lies four kilometers away, its surface often catching the bruised purples and golds of a long-lingering dusk before the shadows deepen into the pines. Nearby, the Ruisseau Keriens traces a quiet path five kilometers distant, its current a thin silver vein threading through the dense, resilient brush. The air here carries a sharp, metallic clarity, a reminder of the earth’s hidden wealth that defines the surroundings. Halet maintains an existence shaped by the demands of the ground beneath it, where the quiet persistence of the wilderness meets the industrial grit of an economy built on deep-earth extraction. The daily life of Halet follows the slow, steady turning of shifts and seasons, marked by the hum of machinery and the sudden, vast silence that settles over the land when the work pauses.
Halet se déploie sur les terres vastes et silencieuses de la Vallée-de-l’Or, là où le sol garde la mémoire minérale d’une extraction qui a façonné chaque horizon. Dans cette étendue boréale, la lumière du crépuscule s’étire avec une lenteur solennelle, venant caresser la surface immobile du Petit Lac situé à quelques kilomètres, dont les eaux sombres semblent retenir le souffle de la forêt environnante. Non loin, le Ruisseau Keriens trace son chemin discret à travers le relief, marquant la terre d’une veine d’eau vive qui serpente entre les conifères. Le poids de l’industrie minière, véritable socle de l’existence locale, imprègne encore l’atmosphère, conférant à Halet une gravité particulière, celle des lieux qui ont bâti leur persévérance sur la richesse cachée sous les roches. La rigueur du climat impose son rythme aux habitants, forgeant une identité austère et résiliente, habituée aux hivers qui figent le paysage en une blancheur éternelle. Ici, la vie quotidienne s’accorde à la cadence sourde des machines lointaines et au murmure du vent dans les pins, offrant une sérénité brute aux rares passants qui s’aventurent sur ces chemins de terre. Halet demeure une halte singulière, une présence modeste mais indélébile dans l’immensité québécoise, où chaque pierre et chaque courbe du terrain racontent une patience longue de plusieurs décennies.

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.
