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 Pointes-à-Thomas.
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 Pointes-à-Thomas is a locality in Stornoway; Le Granit, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Les Pointes-à-Thomas is located at 45.7311°N, 71.1289°W.
Les Pointes-à-Thomas rests quietly against the rugged slopes of the Colline Brousseau, marking a transition between the dense woodland and the persistent flow of the Rivière Legendre. It lies 25.9 km north-west of Lac-Mégantic, QC (from Lac-Mégantic, QC: bearing 312°T), and is situated 12.2 km south-south-west of Lambton. The land here holds a particular stillness, where the low-angled light of late afternoon catches the reeds along the riverbanks, turning the water into a dark, polished mirror. Further into the distance, the vast expanse of Lac Legendre exerts a subtle pull on the horizon, while the terrain itself remains defined by the persistent, stony character of the region. Even in the height of summer, the air carries a crisp edge, hinting at the long winters that have long shaped the growth of the surrounding forest. Settlement near Les Pointes-à-Thomas reflects the enduring relationship between the local inhabitants and the stubborn, granite-rich earth of the surrounding landscape. The local economy persists through a grounded reliance on the land, where the labor of forestry and small-scale agriculture follows the turns of the seasons rather than the rush of modern industry. Beyond the immediate reaches of the Rivière Legendre, the influence of the broader wilderness remains present, with the distant, protected reaches of Parc national de Frontenac serving as a reminder of the wilder, undisturbed interior. Life here avoids unnecessary noise, favoring the steady, repetitive tasks that sustain a household through the turning of the year.
Les Pointes-à-Thomas se déploient sur les terres fertiles de Stornoway, là où le terrain s'incline doucement vers les méandres de la Rivière Legendre. Sous la lumière oblique du crépuscule, les ombres s'étirent depuis la Colline Brousseau pour envelopper les champs et les boisés d'une quiétude ancienne, presque minérale. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac Legendre miroitant capte les derniers éclats du jour, offrant un contraste de calme liquide face à la robustesse du relief environnant. L'air y possède une fraîcheur singulière, celle des espaces ouverts qui s'étendent bien au-delà des limites du Parc national de Frontenac. Les Pointes-à-Thomas portent en elles l'héritage d'une terre labourée par des générations attentives aux caprices des éléments, où l'économie agricole dicte encore le rythme des gestes quotidiens. Cette topographie, façonnée par les eaux courantes et les élévations douces, dessine un cadre où la nature impose sa cadence sans artifice. Les habitants de Les Pointes-à-Thomas entretiennent un lien humble avec ce sol granitique, observant les changements de teintes sur les pentes boisées tandis que le silence s'installe, souverain, sur la vallée. Chaque sentier parcourant ces parages semble murmurer une histoire de labeur et de patience, propre à ces paysages du Granit dont la rudesse se mue en une beauté austère.

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.
