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 Hillcrest Gardens.
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.

Hillcrest Gardens is a residential area in Montréal; Montréal, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Hillcrest Gardens is located at 45.4656°N, 73.8733°W.
Hillcrest Gardens occupies a singular position along the quiet, expansive shore of Lac Saint-Louis, where the land holds the memory of the water in its soil. It lies 19.1 km east of Kanesatake, QC (from Kanesatake, QC: bearing 96°T), and is situated 13.9 km south-west of Laval. The terrain here slopes with a subtle grace toward the horizon, framed by the distant silhouette of Mont Saint-Eustache, which anchors the view under the wide, pale sky. Light at dusk possesses a singular clarity, turning the surface of the lake into a sheet of polished silver that seems to pull the very air into a hush. Beyond the immediate gardens, the landscape remains defined by its proximity to these vast, fluid edges, while the Rivière à l'Orme winds through the broader region just five kilometers away. The presence of Parc national d'Oka, located twelve kilometers distant, and the distant rush of Chutes Saint-Louis seventeen kilometers off, lend a sense of scale to the horizon, reminding the observer of the wilder currents that shape this part of the world. History in Hillcrest Gardens moves with the persistent, quiet labor of those who value the earth, reflecting an economy that has shifted from early agricultural roots toward the deliberate, modern pace of Montréal life. Local tradition favors the cultivation of small, private spaces, where the texture of the land is meticulously maintained by residents who treat their gardens as an extension of the shore itself. Life here unfolds without pretense, defined by the sound of wind moving through the trees and the occasional distant hum of activity from the nearby metropolitan core. Even as the modern world encroaches, Hillcrest Gardens retains a distinct, settled character, rooted in the steady, recurring cycles of the seasons and the simple, grounding influence of the lake that defines its edge.
Hillcrest Gardens s’étire avec une langueur tranquille sur les rives du Lac Saint-Louis, là où le ciel de Montréal semble s’élargir pour épouser la courbe des eaux. Le terrain, façonné par une terre généreuse, porte encore le souvenir des labours anciens qui ont défini l’économie de ce secteur avant que le rythme des jours ne s’accorde à la modernité. À l’horizon, le Mont Saint-Eustache dresse sa silhouette familière, veillant sur les jardins et les vergers qui profitent de la douceur climatique propre à cette zone. La brise qui remonte depuis le Lac Saint-Louis apporte une fraîcheur constante, tandis que la Rivière à l’Orme serpente à quelques lieues, alimentant cette plaine fertile d’une sève invisible. Les habitants perçoivent, dans la lumière dorée du crépuscule, une sérénité que l’éloignement relatif des Chutes Saint-Louis ou la proximité protégée du Parc national d’Oka viennent souligner sans jamais troubler le silence des lieux. Hillcrest Gardens conserve cette dignité des terres qui ont appris à vivre en harmonie avec le cycle des éléments. Chaque parcelle de ce sol raconte la ténacité des premiers défricheurs, une tradition de labeur qui se manifeste encore dans le soin apporté aux jardins privés et dans la fierté des résidents à préserver cette quiétude singulière face à l’agitation urbaine toute proche.
