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 La Petite-Mine.
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.

La Petite-Mine is a locality in Mulgrave-et-Derry; Papineau, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. La Petite-Mine is located at 45.7083°N, 75.4636°W.
La Petite-Mine rests quietly beneath the shadow of Quigley Hill, where the land holds the ancient, stony patience of the Canadian Shield. It lies 36.6 km north-north-east of Gatineau, QC (from Gatineau, QC: bearing 32°T), and is situated 31.2 km north-west of Clarence-Rockland. The Rivière du Lièvre flows past the base of the rise, its dark, persistent current carving a path through the terrain that defines the orientation of all life here. Nearby, the stillness of Lac Judge offers a mirror to the sky, a quiet counterpoint to the rush of the river, while the distant, thunderous presence of Chutes Dufferin reminds one of the water’s relentless force. In the late afternoon, the light catches the mineral-rich outcroppings of La Petite-Mine, turning the grey stone into a brief, metallic shimmer that fades as quickly as it arrives. The history of La Petite-Mine remains anchored in the extraction of earth’s hidden wealth, a pursuit that once drew prospectors to these rugged slopes in Mulgrave-et-Derry. While the intensity of those early industrial days has softened, the economy still leans into the character of the land, valuing the hard-won resilience required to live among these hills. The proximity to Parc national de Plaisance highlights the transition from the extraction of resources to the preservation of the wild, a shift that colors the daily outlook of the residents. Life proceeds with a deliberate focus, acknowledging the weight of the past while watching the seasonal changes move across the ridges, a reminder that the earth here demands a steady, observant hand.
La Petite-Mine se déploie avec une humilité minérale sur les terres accidentées de Mulgrave-et-Derry, là où la lumière déclinante du soir semble s’attarder sur les roches anciennes. Près de la colline Quigley, le terrain s’incline doucement vers les rives de la Rivière du Lièvre, dont le courant constant rythme le travail des hommes et le silence des forêts environnantes. À peine à un kilomètre, le Lac Judge offre une étendue d’eau paisible qui capte les reflets argentés du ciel, tandis qu’à une distance plus grande, les Chutes Dufferin imposent leur grondement sourd à la quiétude du secteur. Plus loin, le Parc national de Plaisance complète ce relief façonné par la rudesse du climat et la patience des saisons. La Petite-Mine conserve dans ses strates la mémoire des efforts déployés pour extraire les richesses enfouies sous le sol, une activité qui a sculpté l’identité de ceux qui habitent ces parages. Les vents, chargés de l’humidité de la Rivière du Lièvre, balaient les crêtes de la colline Quigley et rappellent aux habitants la rigueur nécessaire pour dompter ce paysage sauvage. Entre les escarpements et les zones boisées, chaque sentier raconte une histoire de labeur, faisant de ce coin de terre un espace où la nature demeure la seule véritable souveraine.
