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-des-Perdrix.
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-des-Perdrix is a hamlet in Sainte-Sophie; La Rivière-du-Nord, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Lac-des-Perdrix is located at 45.8333°N, 73.9333°W.
Lac-des-Perdrix sits as a quiet basin of stillness tucked near the Colline Lafontaine. It lies 8.5 km north-east of Saint-Jérôme, QC (from Saint-Jérôme, QC: bearing 40°T), and is situated 12.2 km north-west of Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines. The water of the Rivière Abercromby maintains a steady, deliberate pace as it moves through the surrounding terrain, carrying the cool clarity of the high ground toward the lowlands. Nearby, Lac Alain rests in a hollow of earth roughly one kilometer away, mirroring the sky with a mirror-like precision that catches the pale, thin light of late afternoon. Further downstream, the Chutes de New Glasgow break the silence of the woods with a persistent, low-frequency roar that defines the acoustic character of the surroundings. The air here holds the scent of damp moss and pine needles, a fragrance that deepens as the shadows lengthen across the uneven ground. Life around Lac-des-Perdrix reflects the historical reliance on the land, where the movement of the Rivière Abercromby once provided the necessary energy for local mills and early industry. People here observe the seasonal shifts with a practical attention, noting how the ice retreats from the shallows or how the foliage changes along the ridges of the Colline Lafontaine. The economy has transitioned from those early industrial roots toward a more settled, residential existence, yet the connection to the waterways remains the primary orientation for those who live along the banks. Even in the quiet hours of the morning, the persistent motion of the current provides a sense of continuity, grounding the inhabitants in a landscape that values the steady, observable work of nature over the urgency of modern pace.
Lac-des-Perdrix déploie ses rives paisibles dans une lumière de fin de journée qui semble suspendre le mouvement des pins et des érables sur les flancs de la Colline Lafontaine. Le sol, marqué par une rudesse ancienne, porte la mémoire des défricheurs qui ont autrefois tracé les premiers sillons dans cette terre argileuse, façonnant une économie modeste tournée vers la culture de la terre et la sylviculture. La Rivière Abercromby serpente non loin, offrant un murmure constant qui accompagne la vie quotidienne des habitants, tandis que les eaux plus tranquilles du Lac Alain, distant de seulement un kilomètre, reflètent les teintes changeantes du ciel boréal. À quatre kilomètres de là, le fracas sourd des Chutes de New Glasgow rappelle la vigueur des courants qui sillonnent ce territoire escarpé, structurant le relief en vallons ombragés. Lac-des-Perdrix conserve cette dignité silencieuse des contrées où l'air est vif et chargé d'effluves de résine, une atmosphère qui incite à la contemplation des crêtes boisées. Ici, chaque sentier qui monte vers la Colline Lafontaine révèle la simplicité d'un paysage où la géographie dicte le rythme des journées, loin des agitations urbaines, dans un équilibre préservé entre les roches précambriennes et le cours inlassable de la Rivière Abercromby.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
