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 Hodgins.
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.

Hodgins is a hamlet in Thorne; Pontiac, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Hodgins is located at 45.7172°N, 76.3961°W.
Hodgins sits amidst the rugged, quiet terrain of Thorne in the Pontiac, characterized by a stillness that settles deep into the surrounding pine and hardwood stands. It lies 14.7 km north-north-east of Shawville, QC (from Shawville, QC: bearing 30°T), and is situated 15.6 km east of Campbell's Bay. The land here holds the sharp, stony presence of the Rocher d'Alex, which anchors the horizon with its ancient, unyielding profile. Only two kilometers away, Lac Danielson catches the fading light of dusk, its surface acting as a dark, polished mirror for the encroaching tree line. The air carries a crisp, lingering coolness even in the height of summer, as if the earth itself remembers the long winters that define this corner of the Canadian Shield. The history of Hodgins persists in the cleared clearings and the persistent, hard-won efforts of those who work the land and the timber. While the Ottawa River flows some twenty-four kilometers distant, the influence of that great waterway remains a phantom pulse in the local economy, which has long relied on the quiet cycles of forestry and seasonal agriculture. Residents move with a deliberate purpose, their lives shaped by the distance from the busy sprawl of Ottawa River Provincial Park, which sits twenty-five kilometers away. In Hodgins, the day concludes not with the clamor of industry, but with the subtle deepening of shadows against the granite ridges, where the work of the day leaves behind a profound and heavy silence.
Hodgins se déploie sur les terres accidentées du Pontiac, là où la roche et le ciel semblent s'ajuster dans un silence propre aux vastes étendues du Québec. À proximité du Rocher d'Alex, le relief dessine des lignes austères, rappelant la ténacité des premiers défricheurs venus bâtir une existence sur ces sols rocailleux. La lumière du crépuscule glisse sur le paysage avec une lenteur particulière, révélant la proximité du Lac Danielson qui miroite, calme et immobile, à peine à deux kilomètres du secteur. L'air y possède une fraîcheur tranchante, héritée des courants qui descendent des hauteurs et voyagent vers la rivière Ottawa, située à vingt-quatre kilomètres de là, comme un lointain rappel du mouvement perpétuel des eaux. Hodgins conserve cette allure de repli tranquille, loin de l'agitation des grands axes, où chaque sentier semble raconter la patience d'un labeur quotidien tourné vers la terre. Bien que le parc provincial Ottawa River demeure à vingt-cinq kilomètres, la nature immédiate impose son rythme, une présence physique qui domine les activités humaines et façonne le caractère des habitants. Ici, la vie se mesure aux variations de la lumière sur les crêtes et à la pérennité des horizons qui, depuis toujours, dictent les heures et les travaux de ceux qui ont choisi de s'y établir.

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.
