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 Barrage-de-la-Chute-Martine.
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 Barrage-de-la-Chute-Martine is a locality in Saint-André-du-Lac-Saint-Jean; Le Domaine-du-Roy, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Barrage-de-la-Chute-Martine is located at 48.3758°N, 71.9787°W.
Le Barrage-de-la-Chute-Martine anchors the rugged terrain of the Monts Jumeaux, where the persistent surge of the Rivière Métabetchouane defines the character of the land. It lies 23.9 km south-east of Roberval, QC (from Roberval, QC: bearing 131°T), and is situated 8.6 km south-east of Chambord. The water here carries a sharp, metallic clarity, rushing against the stone with a force that seems to hold the very air in suspension, especially as the late afternoon light turns the surrounding forest into a wall of deep, bruised bronze. Le Réservoir sits quietly just two kilometers away, offering a stark contrast to the kinetic energy of the river, while the distant, expansive reaches of Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon remain a thirty-six kilometer journey toward the horizon. Life in Saint-André-du-Lac-Saint-Jean within Le Domaine-du-Roy is marked by the deliberate industry of those who have long understood how to harness the strength of the Rivière Métabetchouane for local utility. The economy here maintains a steady pulse, grounded in the practical realities of the landscape and the seasonal shifts that dictate the work of the day. Neighbors move with a quiet efficiency, their daily routines echoing the persistence of the current that flows past Le Barrage-de-la-Chute-Martine. Even in the height of the working week, there is a lingering stillness in the air, a sense that the residents are merely guests to a geography that demands both respect and a sturdy pair of boots.
Le Barrage-de-la-Chute-Martine se dresse avec une austérité tranquille parmi les reliefs escarpés des Monts Jumeaux, là où la Rivière Métabetchouane impose son rythme constant aux terres de Saint-André-du-Lac-Saint-Jean. L’eau sombre, chargée de la mémoire des forêts, s'écoule avec une régularité minérale, offrant au regard le contraste entre la force brute de la pierre et la fluidité capricieuse du courant. À deux kilomètres de là, le Réservoir étend sa surface plane, captant les derniers éclats d'un soleil qui décline derrière les crêtes, tandis que l'air, chargé d'une humidité légère, semble suspendre le temps au-dessus des rives. Malgré la proximité relative du Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon à une trentaine de kilomètres, ce secteur conserve une identité propre, façonnée par le labeur des anciens et la persistance des traditions forestières. Le Barrage-de-la-Chute-Martine demeure une présence marquante dans le Domaine-du-Roy, où la vie quotidienne s'ajuste aux exigences du climat boréal et à la rudesse du relief. Sous la lumière argentée du crépuscule, les bois environnants s'assombrissent, soulignant le caractère isolé de ce coin de pays où l'économie, autrefois liée aux ressources sylvicoles, se devine encore dans le calme absolu des sentiers qui longent la Rivière Métabetchouane.
