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 Pit.
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 Pit is a locality in Notre-Dame-du-Rosaire; Montmagny, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Pit is located at 46.8289°N, 70.3669°W.
Le Pit sits nestled within the rugged embrace of the Montagne aux Érables, a geological sentinel watching over the quiet reaches of Notre-Dame-du-Rosaire. It lies 18.9 km north-west of Secteur des Sentiers-Pédestres-de-Saint-Fabien, QC (from Secteur des Sentiers-Pédestres-de-Saint-Fabien, QC: bearing 310°T), and is situated 10.6 km north of Saint-Paul-de-Montminy. The landscape surrounding Le Pit holds a persistent, cool dampness, as the Rivière du Sud carves a slow path through the terrain, its banks lined with the dense, resilient timber that defines the local silhouette. Toward the horizon, the land tilts toward the hidden stillness of Lac Moussière, while the rush of Chutes à Zado echoes faintly in the memory of the wind, and the protected expanses of Réserve écologique Claude-Mélançon preserve the wilder character of the region. At dusk, the light here turns a bruised, metallic violet, catching the jagged edges of the slopes and turning the forest into a dark, impenetrable wall. Life in Le Pit persists with a focus on the stubborn harvest of the earth and the careful stewardship of the surrounding woods. Generations have looked to the timber and the soil of the Montagne aux Érables to sustain the local economy, maintaining a way of life that values the heavy, honest labor of the seasons over the haste of the modern world. The traditions of the region remain rooted in the seasonal shifts of the forest, where the air smells perpetually of damp needles and cooling stone. Even as the sun sinks below the ridges, the inhabitants of Le Pit continue their work with a quietude that matches the stillness of the Rivière du Sud, finding a singular beauty in the way the frost gathers on the valley floor before the first true light of morning.
Le Pit s'élève humblement parmi les reliefs accidentés de la Montagne aux Érables, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous une lumière de fin de journée qui étire les ombres sur les pentes. Ici, le murmure constant de la Rivière du Sud rythme l'existence de ceux qui habitent ce versant, un courant qui charrie avec lui le souvenir des forêts denses et le labeur des générations passées. À quelques lieues de là, le Lac Moussière repose dans une quiétude minérale, tandis que le fracas lointain des Chutes à Zado et la sérénité protégée de la Réserve écologique Claude-Mélançon rappellent la puissance indomptée de la nature environnante. Le Pit conserve une âme de labeur, façonnée par les cycles de la terre et la rudesse des hivers qui imposent une solidarité silencieuse aux habitants. Le sol, travaillé avec patience, porte encore les traces d'une vocation agricole tenace, défiant les escarpements rocailleux pour offrir ses récoltes. Il règne dans ce secteur une atmosphère de permanence, une persévérance qui se lit sur les façades des maisons et dans le regard de ceux qui connaissent chaque sentier de ces hauteurs. La rudesse du terrain se transforme en une beauté austère, presque sauvage, où l'air frais descend des sommets pour envelopper Le Pit dans une clarté limpide et solitaire.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
