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 Pointe-aux-Tremblay.
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 Pointe-aux-Tremblay is a locality in Saint-Mathieu-du-Parc; Maskinongé, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. La Pointe-aux-Tremblay is located at 46.5614°N, 72.9471°W.
La Pointe-aux-Tremblay rests within the quiet folds of the landscape near the Mont Georges, where the cooling air settles into the valleys as dusk pulls a long, thin shadow across the pines. It lies 7.6 km north-north-east of Domaine-du-Lac-Paterson, QC (from Domaine-du-Lac-Paterson, QC: bearing 26°T), and is situated 15.6 km west of Shawinigan. The terrain here feels deliberate and firm, shaped by the proximity of Lac à la Pêche, which sits at the very edge of the doorstep, its surface often holding the grey, bruised light of a late autumn afternoon before the frost arrives. While the Rivière Shawinigan flows some six kilometers away, the silence at La Pointe-aux-Tremblay remains undisturbed, defined by the rough texture of granite and the scent of damp earth that rises whenever the wind shifts from the higher ridges. The history of La Pointe-aux-Tremblay reflects a persistent, quiet endurance, anchored by the families who long ago cleared the rocky soil to carve out a living in the shadow of the hills. Though the Chutes de Shawinigan roar fifteen kilometers to the south, the local economy here has always favored the stillness of woodlots and the slow, steady work of the land over the frantic pace of the industrial centers. Even with Parc national du Canada de la Mauricie located twenty-seven kilometers away, the daily life of those who stay remains focused on the immediate horizon, where the woodsmoke from a chimney marks the hour more reliably than any clock. People here move with a careful economy of motion, tending to their tasks with the understanding that the land demands a certain patience, rewarding those who know how to listen to the shifting weight of the seasons.
La Pointe-aux-Tremblay déploie ses terres sur un relief qui s'incline doucement vers les eaux tranquilles du Lac à la Pêche, dont la présence immédiate dicte le rythme des heures et la respiration du sol. À proximité, le Mont Georges domine l'horizon de sa masse solide, offrant une sentinelle de pierre aux habitants qui ont su bâtir leur vie sur ces terres de labeur et de patience. L'air y circule avec une fraîcheur qui rappelle la vigueur des forêts boréales, tandis que la Rivière Shawinigan, en serpentant à quelques lieues de là, murmure une histoire ancienne qui remonte jusqu'aux Chutes de Shawinigan, dont le fracas lointain semble parfois résonner dans le silence du soir. Plus loin, le Parc national du Canada de la Mauricie ceinture ce territoire d'une ceinture de nature sauvage et immuable. La Pointe-aux-Tremblay conserve cette allure de persévérance agricole où les bâtisseurs ont apprivoisé les rigueurs du climat pour y établir une existence faite de gestes simples et d'attachement viscéral au terrain. Sous la lumière oblique du crépuscule, les ombres s'allongent sur les champs, révélant une quiétude qui ne demande rien d'autre que d'être contemplée, loin des agitations du monde, dans cette géographie où l'eau et la terre se rencontrent dans une harmonie austère.
