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 Carrefour.
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 Carrefour is a residential area in Gatineau; Outaouais, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Carrefour is located at 45.4836°N, 75.6986°W.
Le Carrefour occupies a quiet, purposeful threshold near the Mont Bleu, where the land rises in slow transition toward the higher ridges. It lies 6.3 km north of Gatineau, QC (from Gatineau, QC: bearing 9°T), and is situated 10.0 km south-east of Cantley. The air here holds the cool, damp breath of the nearby Rivière Gatineau, which pulls the light of the late afternoon into long, silver ribbons across the shifting topography. To the south, the presence of Lac Leamy exerts a subtle pull on the local atmosphere, cooling the evenings and drawing the gaze toward the horizon, while the distant, insistent rush of Rideau Falls anchors the region in a constant, low-frequency hum. The terrain feels solid and settled, a place where the earth seems to hold its own weight with a quiet, grounded confidence that defies the frantic pace of the wider world. Le Carrefour serves as a vital junction within the local landscape, reflecting an economy shaped by the steady movement of people and the industrious nature of a population centered on professional and educational pursuits. The proximity to the Mont Bleu defines the local character, encouraging a lifestyle that balances the rigors of modern work with a profound awareness of the surrounding geography. Throughout the day, the pulse of activity remains steady, marked by the transit of commuters and students who navigate the streets with a familiarity that suggests a deep connection to the land beneath their feet. Even amidst the development of infrastructure and commerce, the spirit of Le Carrefour persists, defined by an enduring clarity of purpose and the quiet, persistent influence of the water and heights that frame its borders.
Le Carrefour déploie ses façades entre l'élévation tranquille du Mont Bleu et le mouvement perpétuel des eaux de la Rivière Gatineau. Ici, la lumière du crépuscule s'attarde sur les surfaces bitumées, prolongeant une clarté qui semble puiser sa force dans la proximité des éléments naturels. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac Leamy conserve son silence minéral tandis que les chutes Rideau ponctuent l'horizon d'un murmure constant, rappelant aux habitants la puissance sourde des courants qui façonnent la topographie environnante. L'activité de Le Carrefour se mesure à la vitalité de ses passages, où les trajectoires quotidiennes se croisent avec une régularité presque chorégraphiée, portée par une économie qui s'appuie sur le dynamisme de la région. Les résidents perçoivent l'air chargé de l'humidité du bassin versant, un souffle qui tempère les ardeurs de la journée et adoucit les contours des architectures modernes. Cette présence constante de la Rivière Gatineau dicte le rythme des échanges et colore le quotidien d'une teinte bleue, presque métallique, qui définit l'identité visuelle du secteur. Dans ce cadre, chaque déplacement devient une manière de redécouvrir les nuances d'un paysage où la terre ferme rencontre la fluidité des eaux, offrant une existence rythmée par la géographie singulière de l'Outaouais.
