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 Jonquière-Nord.
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.

Jonquière-Nord is a administrative sector in Saguenay; Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Jonquière-Nord is located at 48.4333°N, 71.2667°W.
Jonquière-Nord rests upon the rugged shoulders of the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region, defined by the enduring presence of Le Grand Coteau and the steady, persistent flow of the Rivière aux Sables. It lies 15.1 km west of Saguenay, QC (from Saguenay, QC: bearing 272°T), and is situated 14.9 km west of Chicoutimi. The air here carries a crisp, boreal sharpness that clarifies the horizon, particularly when the low, golden light of dusk catches the mist rising from the Rivière aux Sables. Within this terrain, the landscape holds its breath, marked by the proximity of Lac Lemieux and the distant, rugged silhouettes of Parc national des Monts-Valin, which loom forty kilometers away like silent sentinels watching over the valley floor. The character of Jonquière-Nord remains deeply tied to the industrial vitality of the Saguenay, where the echoes of the river’s energy have long powered the ambitions of those who settled along its banks. While the roar of Chutes Murdock serves as a nearby reminder of the raw power inherent in these waterways, the daily life of Jonquière-Nord moves with a focus on the quiet resilience of its working roots. People here possess a seasoned familiarity with the changing seasons, moving through the tasks of the day with a pragmatic grace that honors the history of the region. Even as modern life moves forward, the proximity to such vast, untamed reaches keeps the spirit of the inhabitants aligned with the rhythm of the land itself.
Jonquière-Nord s'étend avec une vigueur tranquille sur les hauteurs qui dominent les rives de la Rivière aux Sables, là où le sol se relève doucement vers le Grand Coteau. Dans cette partie du Saguenay, l'air porte une fraîcheur vive, héritée des vastes espaces qui se déploient au loin, notamment vers le Parc national des Monts-Valin qui dessine une ligne sombre et protectrice à quarante kilomètres de là. La lumière de fin de journée glisse sur les pentes, révélant une topographie où l'héritage industriel se mêle à une nature encore sauvage, marquée par le murmure constant des Chutes Murdock et la présence paisible du Lac Lemieux, situés à quelques lieues de distance. Jonquière-Nord maintient une allure de labeur et de persévérance, ses quartiers s'ajustant au terrain accidenté avec une régularité qui rappelle la rigueur des hivers boréaux. Les habitants, héritiers d'une mémoire façonnée par l'exploitation forestière et la force hydraulique, cultivent une existence sobre, rythmée par la montée des eaux printanières et le silence des forêts environnantes. Ici, la terre ne se livre pas sans effort, offrant plutôt une beauté austère, faite de contrastes entre les structures métalliques des usines et la course indomptable des courants qui strient le paysage.
