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 Laterrière.
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.

Laterrière is a administrative sector in Saguenay; Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Laterrière is located at 48.3083°N, 71.1139°W.
Laterrière sits nestled within the rolling terrain of Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, defined by the steady, persistent presence of the Rivière du Moulin. It lies 13.9 km south-south-west of Saguenay, QC (from Saguenay, QC: bearing 196°T), and is situated 12.5 km south-south-west of Chicoutimi. The air here carries a crisp, boreal sharpness that deepens at dusk, turning the light into a pale, bruised violet that clings to the valley slopes. Just a short distance away, the quiet basin of Lac Saint-Gelais holds the reflection of the sky, mirroring the stillness that settles over the low-lying fields as the wind shifts. The land possesses a rugged, honest gravity, where the horizon feels close enough to touch, grounding the senses in the immediate, tactile reality of the earth. History in Laterrière lingers in the persistent work of those who cleared the timber and harnessed the currents of the local waterways to build a life against the northern cold. While the distant, thundering presence of Chutes à Martel echoes the raw power of the region’s hydrology, the daily life of Laterrière moves with a quiet, industrious focus, shaped by the legacy of forestry and the demands of a changing economy. Residents move through their days with a practical resilience, their traditions rooted in the seasonal cycles that govern the landscape. Even as modern life moves forward, the character of Laterrière remains defined by the persistent flow of the Rivière du Moulin, a constant companion that marks the passage of time.
Laterrière s'éveille chaque matin sous une lumière qui semble hésiter entre la rigueur du climat septentrional et la douceur des terres agricoles façonnées par les pionniers. Le paysage s'articule autour des rives de la Rivière du Moulin, dont le cours sinueux dicte le rythme paisible des journées et accompagne la vie des habitants. À proximité, le Lac Saint-Gelais étend ses eaux calmes, invitant à une contemplation silencieuse sous le ciel changeant du Saguenay. L'esprit des lieux se manifeste également dans la vigueur des Chutes à Martel, situées à quelques kilomètres seulement, dont le murmure persistant rappelle la force brute de la nature environnante. L'économie locale, portée par une longue tradition de labeur et une résilience héritée des premiers défricheurs, se déploie sans artifice dans ce cadre où le relief vallonné impose sa cadence. En parcourant les rues de Laterrière, il est possible de percevoir la texture d'un quotidien simple, nourri par une identité forte qui refuse de se fondre dans l'anonymat. La terre, fertile et généreuse, conserve les traces des efforts accomplis, tandis que l'air vif du soir enveloppe les habitations d'une sérénité presque palpable, marquant la fin d'un cycle de labeur dans ce coin de terre singulier.
