This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lac-Pauzé, Quebec. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. 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-Pauzé.
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-Pauzé is a resort area in Entrelacs; Matawinie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Lac-Pauzé is located at 46.1344°N, 73.9789°W.
The stillness of Lac-Pauzé settles deep into the surrounding earth, cradled by the steady presence of the Montagne à Lacasse. It lies 40.0 km north of Saint-Jérôme, QC (from Saint-Jérôme, QC: bearing 3°T), and is situated 23.3 km west-north-west of Rawdon. The Rivière Kenny feeds the quiet basin, its waters holding the heavy, amber light of dusk like a secret kept against the encroaching dark. In the shadow of the Montagne à Lacasse, the air carries a crisp, mineral sharpness that defines the high terrain of Entrelacs. While Les Cascades sits sixteen kilometers distant, the immediate geography of Lac-Pauzé remains defined by the interplay of stone and current, where the land rises in rugged, unyielding swells. The trees stand in a dense, hushed congregation, their branches catching the fading sun until the entire valley glows with a pale, fleeting heat before the night chill descends. Life around Lac-Pauzé follows the slow, seasonal shifts of the Matawinie, where the local economy has long been shaped by the necessity of the woods and the water. The residents move with a deliberate care, acknowledging the demands of a landscape that does not easily yield to industry or rapid expansion. Historically, the region relied on the bounty provided by the Rivière Kenny, and today, that connection to the water persists in the quiet habits of those who dwell near the shore. Whether tending to the land or observing the passage of the seasons, the people maintain a relationship with their home that prioritizes endurance over haste. Lac-Pauzé functions as a small, secluded anchor, holding its place in the rugged interior through a quiet, steady resolve.
Lac-Pauzé s'étire dans une langueur contemplative sous la lumière oblique du crépuscule, lorsque l'ombre de la Montagne à Lacasse s'allonge sur les rives de la Rivière Kenny. L'air y possède une densité particulière, une fraîcheur humide qui semble capturer les murmures du passé agricole de la Matawinie, là où le labeur des premiers défricheurs a laissé place à une quiétude souveraine. Les eaux de la Rivière Kenny serpentent avec une lenteur calculée, frôlant les rives boisées où le silence est seulement interrompu par le passage furtif de la faune locale. À seize kilomètres de là, le fracas lointain des Cascades impose un rythme sourd et constant à la topographie environnante, rappelant la puissance brute qui façonne ces terres de rocs et de conifères. Lac-Pauzé demeure une présence discrète, presque secrète, nichée dans ce relief tourmenté par les âges, où chaque pierre et chaque courbe du terrain racontent une patience immense. La vie s'y déploie dans la simplicité des gestes quotidiens, une existence harmonisée avec la rudesse du climat et la rigueur du paysage, offrant une sérénité rare à quiconque s'attarde à contempler la lumière s'éteindre sur les roches sombres de la Montagne à Lacasse.
