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 Les Délaissés.
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.

Les Délaissés is a locality in Mandeville; D'Autray, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Les Délaissés is located at 46.3344°N, 73.3964°W.
Les Délaissés rests in the quiet embrace of the rugged terrain near the Montagne à Marcil, where the land holds its breath under a canopy of dense, shifting shadows. It lies 34.8 km north of Joliette, QC (from Joliette, QC: bearing 6°T), and is situated 4.7 km north-north-west of Saint-Gabriel. The Rivière Mastigouche carves a steady, cold path through the bedrock, its currents pulling at the roots of ancient trees that lean toward the water's edge. When the light fades, a silver sheen settles over the surface, turning the river into a mirror for the darkening heights of the Montagne à Marcil. Only two kilometers away, the expanse of Lac Maskinongé offers a stillness that contrasts with the constant, low-frequency hum of the river’s passage. In the late afternoon, the air cools rapidly, carrying the sharp, clean scent of damp earth and pine, a reminder of the vast, quiet wilderness that defines the perimeter of Les Délaissés. The history of Les Délaissés clings to the resilience of those who first cleared these slopes, finding a living in the timber and the seasonal yields of the surrounding forest. Life here follows the demands of the landscape, where the cold winters once dictated the pace of work and the necessity of communal reliance. Today, the economy reflects a transition toward a slower, more deliberate stewardship of the woods and waters, drawing those who find value in the solitude of the D'Autray region. Traditions persist in the quiet maintenance of the homesteads and the respectful attention paid to the flow of the Rivière Mastigouche during the spring thaw. Even now, the daily movement of people through the hills near the Montagne à Marcil feels less like a struggle against the environment and more like a long, shared acquaintance with the land’s enduring, stony character.
Les Délaissés s'étendent avec une humilité silencieuse sous la garde vigilante de la Montagne à Marcil, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle dans le froid vif de Mandeville. Le paysage déploie ses reliefs accidentés, sculptés par une nature exigeante qui impose sa loi aux rares bâtisses éparpillées sur le sol rocailleux. À proximité, les eaux de la Rivière Mastigouche s'écoulent avec une lenteur réfléchie, charriant les échos d'une histoire agricole modeste, façonnée par des générations ayant appris à dompter cette rudesse pour en tirer une existence patiente. À peine à deux kilomètres, le Lac Maskinongé miroite sous la lumière oblique du crépuscule, étalant une clarté argentée qui transforme les boisés environnants en de longues ombres indistinctes. La vie à Les Délaissés se mesure à la ténacité de ses habitants, ceux qui connaissent le chant du vent contre les parois rocheuses et le silence lourd des hivers interminables. Rien ici ne cherche à briller par l'artifice ; tout demeure dans la fidélité aux gestes anciens et au respect de ce terroir singulier qui, malgré les noms qu'on lui prête, continue d'exister pour lui-même, loin des agitations du monde, protégé par la stature immuable de la montagne.
