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 Le Baron.
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.

Le Baron is a residential area in Gatineau; Outaouais, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Baron is located at 45.4822°N, 75.7072°W.
Le Baron rests in the shadow of Mont Bleu, where the earth rises to meet the sky in a firm, quiet posture. It lies 6.0 km north of Gatineau, QC (from Gatineau, QC: bearing 3°T), and is situated 9.7 km south-east of Cantley. The land here holds the cool, damp memory of the nearby Rivière Gatineau, which pulls the morning mist into its dark, moving currents. As the light shifts at dusk, the terrain catches a fleeting, bruised purple hue, casting long shadows that sharpen the edges of the trees and stones. Just four kilometers away, the stillness of Lac Leamy offers a respite from the steady pulse of the land, while the distant, rushing energy of Rideau Falls, located five kilometers to the south, hums beneath the silence of the air. The history of Le Baron lingers in the way the local economy has transitioned from the heavy, rhythmic labor of the logging industry to the modern currents of administration and service. Life here moves with the deliberate pace of the tides in the Rivière Gatineau, balancing the weight of its industrial heritage with the quiet emergence of contemporary suburban life. Residents often gather near the landmarks that define the horizon, their daily routines punctuated by the seasonal changes that turn the foliage from deep emerald to a brittle, translucent gold. Even amidst the growth of the region, Le Baron maintains a distinct character, grounded in the physical reality of the ridges and the water that have shaped the lives of those who walk these paths for generations.
Le Baron s’étire avec une tranquille assurance sur les rives de la Rivière Gatineau, là où le relief s'incline doucement vers les eaux sombres et puissantes du cours d'eau. À l’horizon, la silhouette imposante du Mont Bleu domine le ciel, agissant comme un gardien silencieux sur les terres environnantes. La lumière du couchant se fragmente sur la surface du courant, créant des reflets cuivrés qui rappellent la longue mémoire industrielle de la vallée. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac Leamy apaise les vents, tandis que le tumulte lointain des chutes Rideau impose une cadence sourde et constante à l’atmosphère. Dans ce cadre, Le Baron cultive une existence rythmée par la rudesse des hivers québécois et la renaissance printanière de la forêt boréale. Les habitants, héritiers d’une ténacité forgée par le travail du bois et l’exploitation des richesses naturelles, observent le passage des jours avec une sagesse héritée des anciens. Chaque souffle d’air apporte une fraîcheur humide, chargée de l’odeur des conifères et de la terre meuble qui borde la Rivière Gatineau. Ici, la géographie dicte les gestes quotidiens, imposant une harmonie entre les aspirations humaines et la permanence du paysage qui entoure Le Baron.
