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 Trou-des-Ours.
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 Trou-des-Ours is a locality in Marston; Le Granit, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Trou-des-Ours is located at 45.5428°N, 70.9197°W.
Le Trou-des-Ours rests within the rugged folds of the Montagne de la Croix, a hidden indentation carved into the terrain where the land seems to hold its breath. It lies 4.5 km south-west of Lac-Mégantic, QC (from Lac-Mégantic, QC: bearing 220°T), and is situated 22.6 km east-north-east of Franceville. The Rivière Victoria moves past these slopes with a persistent, cold clarity, its current catching the low-angled light of dusk to shimmer like hammered silver against the dark stone. Nearby, the presence of Lac Mégantic exerts a quiet gravity on the horizon, drawing the eye toward the open expanse of water that sits only 2 km away. The air here carries the scent of damp pine and cold granite, a sharpness that clings to the coat even after the sun has slipped behind the ridgeline. The history of Le Trou-des-Ours is marked by the steady, labor-intensive work of the granite industry that has long defined the character of Marston and the surrounding Le Granit region. Generations have moved through these hills, finding their footing in the hard, unyielding stone that provides both the foundation for their homes and the primary resource for the local economy. While the reach of Parc national du Mont-Mégantic lies 22 km away, the local life here remains focused on the immediate, tangible demands of the land and the seasonal shifts of the forest. The pace is set not by the clock, but by the necessity of tending to the woods and the quarries, where the work leaves a fine, pale dust on the hands of those who shape the mountainside.
Le Trou-des-Ours se déploie dans le relief accidenté de la Montagne de la Croix, là où la terre de Marston semble retenir son souffle sous une lumière de fin de jour qui étire les ombres sur les pentes. Ici, l’écho de la Rivière Victoria accompagne les travaux des hommes, une présence fluide qui sculpte le paysage en contrebas des terres agricoles, tandis que le Lac Mégantic, distant de quelques lieues, semble offrir une promesse de calme immobile. Les habitants, façonnés par la rudesse et la générosité de ce sol granitique, perpétuent une existence rythmée par les cycles de la terre, loin de l’agitation des grandes routes. À vingt-deux kilomètres, le Parc national du Mont-Mégantic veille sur l'horizon, imposant sa stature familière au-dessus des forêts denses. Le Trou-des-Ours conserve une identité brute, héritée d'un labeur acharné où la pierre et le bois composent le quotidien, créant un espace de vie où chaque sentier raconte une histoire de patience. L'air, purifié par l'altitude et le souffle constant venant des sommets, porte en lui une fraîcheur qui saisit les sens, affirmant la permanence de ce coin de pays où la nature impose toujours sa volonté silencieuse sur les modestes interventions humaines.

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.
