Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

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 Lac-Dion.
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.

Lac-Dion is a hamlet in Saint-Damien-de-Buckland; Bellechasse, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Lac-Dion is located at 46.6561°N, 70.6656°W.
Lac-Dion rests within the quiet embrace of the Bellechasse landscape, where the land holds the steady pulse of the Rivière des Abénaquis. It lies 36.4 km north-east of Sainte-Marie, QC (from Sainte-Marie, QC: bearing 48°T), and is situated 11.3 km south-south-west of Armagh. The terrain here gathers around the water, defined by the proximity of the Côte à Leclerc, which gives the shoreline a distinct, sturdy character. As the light wanes, the surface of Lac-Dion catches the deepening blue of the sky, mirroring the dense woods that press close to the water’s edge. The air carries a crisp, lingering dampness, a reminder of the persistent influence of the river that feeds the basin and shapes the surrounding topography. The history of Lac-Dion remains tied to the deliberate labor of those who cleared the timber and worked the soil in Saint-Damien-de-Buckland. While the Réserve écologique Claude-Mélançon stands roughly eighteen kilometers away as a preserve of wilder, protected growth, the immediate surroundings of Lac-Dion reflect a history of steady, agrarian persistence. Life here moves with the seasons, from the thaw that swells the Rivière des Abénaquis to the quiet dormancy of winter. The people who maintain these lands honor a legacy of endurance, finding beauty in the simple maintenance of the shoreline and the reliable cycle of the harvest that defines the local economy.
Lac-Dion déploie ses rives paisibles dans une quiétude que seul le murmure de la Rivière des Abénaquis vient troubler, offrant aux terres de Saint-Damien-de-Buckland une présence singulière. À proximité immédiate de la Côte à Leclerc, le paysage s'étire avec une simplicité austère, façonnée par des décennies de labeur agricole qui ont tracé les contours de ces plaines et de ces vallons. La lumière du crépuscule s'y attarde, dorant les herbes hautes et soulignant la rigueur d'un climat qui exige des habitants une patience héritée de leurs ancêtres. Ce relief, marqué par la proximité de la Réserve écologique Claude-Mélançon, garde une part de mystère sauvage sous le couvert des arbres, tandis que le Lac-Dion demeure un repère familier pour ceux qui habitent ces parages. L'économie locale, portée par le rythme des travaux de la terre et le respect des cycles naturels, se maintient dans une sobriété exemplaire, loin du tumulte des grands centres. Ici, le quotidien se mesure à l'aune des récoltes et des changements de température qui dictent l'allure des journées. Chaque souffle d'air chargé de l'humidité de la rivière rappelle l'histoire tenace de ces familles qui ont su s'établir sur ce sol accidenté, transformant la rudesse des éléments en une existence empreinte de dignité et de persévérance silencieuse.
