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 Dépôt-La Moelle.
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 Dépôt-La Moelle is a locality in Lac-Ashuapmushuan; Le Domaine-du-Roy, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Dépôt-La Moelle is located at 48.3657°N, 72.6566°W.
Le Dépôt-La Moelle emerges from the dense boreal canopy as a quiet clearing marked by the persistent, dark currents of the Rivière Croche. It lies 35.5 km south-south-west of Saint-Félicien, QC (from Saint-Félicien, QC: bearing 206°T), and is situated 36.2 km west-south-west of Roberval. The land here holds the stillness of the interior, where the elevation rises toward the Colline Têtu, creating a shadowed horizon that seems to press the evening light into the tree line. Only a kilometer away, the surface of Lac à Ernest reflects the sky with a mirror-like clarity, offering a sense of depth that contrasts with the rugged, uneven terrain surrounding the site. In the cool air of late afternoon, the forest exhales a sharp scent of balsam and damp earth, grounding the landscape in a sensory permanence that feels both ancient and immediate. The history of Le Dépôt-La Moelle is rooted in the labor of the timber trade, a legacy of extraction that once defined the movement of men and wood through these remote reaches of the Rivière Croche. Remnants of this industrial past linger in the geography, where the land was cleared to serve as a staging ground for the harvest, leaving behind a hard-packed resilience in the soil. Today, the economy leans on the quiet persistence of natural resource management, reflecting a culture that values endurance over rapid change. Life here follows the seasonal shifts of the watershed, with the inhabitants maintaining a practical, observant relationship with the surrounding woods that keeps the work of the day focused on the immediate requirements of the terrain.
Le Dépôt-La Moelle s'étire dans une solitude minérale, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous le regard immobile de la Colline Têtu. Les eaux sombres de la Rivière Croche serpentent avec une lenteur calculée, marquant le relief d'une frontière liquide qui sépare le silence des forêts des traces laissées par l'industrie forestière passée. À peine à un kilomètre, le Lac à Ernest déploie une surface lisse, agissant comme un miroir pour les nuages qui défilent, indifférents à l'activité humaine. L'air y possède une densité particulière, chargée d'une humidité résineuse qui imprègne les écorces et les vêtements. Dans cet espace façonné par le travail du bois et la rudesse du climat, Le Dépôt-La Moelle conserve la mémoire des anciens chantiers où les hommes, accoutumés à la rigueur des hivers, ont appris à lire la topographie comme un livre ouvert. La lumière du crépuscule glisse sur les pentes, transformant les reliefs en silhouettes sombres tandis que le calme revient sur la Rivière Croche. Chaque pierre de la Colline Têtu semble porter le souvenir d'une vie austère, rythmée par la montée des eaux et la transformation patiente du paysage environnant.
