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-Filion.
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-Filion is a hamlet in Saint-Jérôme; La Rivière-du-Nord, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Lac-Filion is located at 45.8122°N, 74.1003°W.
Lac-Filion sits nestled within the quiet contours of the land, defined by its proximity to the Mont Sainte-Anne and the persistent, cool presence of the Rivière du Nord. It lies 8.5 km west-north-west of Saint-Jérôme, QC (from Saint-Jérôme, QC: bearing 299°T), and is situated 10.2 km south-south-east of Saint-Sauveur. The water of the Rivière du Nord draws a silver line through the terrain, its movement dictating the mood of the mornings when mist clings to the banks. Nearby, Petit lac Cloutier mirrors the sky, resting a mere kilometer away as if waiting for the wind to stir its surface. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and coniferous needles, a crispness that remains even when the sun warms the rock faces of the Mont Sainte-Anne. Light shifts across the landscape in long, slanted beams, turning the water of Lac-Filion into a dark glass that holds the reflection of the passing clouds. Life around Lac-Filion moves in accordance with the seasonal shifts that dictate the pace of the Rivière du Nord, echoing a history of resourcefulness found throughout the broader region. While the Chutes de New Glasgow stand as a distant, roaring landmark some 18 kilometers away, the local character is defined more by the steady, quieter persistence of those who live and work near the river’s edge. The influence of the nearby Parc national d'Oka, situated 38 kilometers off, lends a sense of preserved wilderness to the horizon, grounding the surroundings in a deep, ancient geography. Residents go about their days with a focus on the practicalities of the terrain, finding utility in the land that has supported generations. The legacy of the locale is found in these daily actions, where the work of the present day honors the quiet, enduring nature of the valley.
Lac-Filion se déploie dans une langueur contemplative, là où la terre s'incline doucement vers la Rivière du Nord. Sous la lumière oblique du couchant, les eaux calmes semblent absorber les derniers éclats du jour, offrant une clarté diaphane qui souligne la robustesse du Mont Sainte-Anne se découpant à l'horizon. Non loin de là, la présence tranquille du Petit lac Cloutier ponctue le relief, rappelant aux promeneurs la patience nécessaire pour apprivoiser cette contrée. L'histoire locale s'est bâtie sur cette proximité étroite avec les éléments, une relation nourrie par le rythme des courants et la rudesse bienveillante du climat québécois. Si l'on s'éloigne vers l'ouest, les Chutes de New Glasgow murmurent le souvenir des forces hydrauliques qui ont jadis modelé l'économie de la région, tandis que plus loin, le Parc national d'Oka étend sa sérénité boisée sur le paysage environnant. Lac-Filion conserve ainsi une identité singulière, forgée par cet équilibre entre les plaines forestières et le mouvement perpétuel de l'eau. Le vent y apporte une fraîcheur constante, une sensation qui imprègne les esprits et rappelle à chacun la pérennité d'un cadre naturel où le temps semble suspendre sa course, offrant un refuge apaisant aux regards lassés par l'agitation du monde moderne.
