This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lusk, Quebec. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
Drag the map to pan to any area of Quebec or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Lusk and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.
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 Lusk.
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.

Lusk is a locality in Pontiac; Les Collines-de-l'Outaouais, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Lusk is located at 45.5047°N, 76.0014°W.
Lusk rests firmly within the rugged rise of the Escarpement d'Eardley, where the land elevates itself against the horizon. It lies 24.2 km west-north-west of Gatineau, QC (from Gatineau, QC: bearing 291°T), and is situated 15.5 km south of La Pêche. The earth here holds a stubborn, rocky character, defined by the sharp verticality of the escarpment that shelters the local terrain. While the Rivière Gatineau flows through the wider region some 14 km away, Lusk maintains a more intimate connection to the smaller, quieter basin of Petit lac Lusk, located 6 km distant. The air often carries a crisp, thin clarity that catches the light of late afternoon, turning the granite faces of the slope into long, shadowed ribs of stone. Life in Lusk reflects the quiet endurance of those who settled along the rocky folds of the Pontiac, where the economy has long leaned into the land and its resources. Historically, the reach of the forest and the difficult, uneven soil demanded a particular persistence from the families who cleared the brush to build their homesteads. Today, Lusk retains a character formed by this solitude, where the daily routines of the inhabitants move with a steady, deliberate pace. The silence that settles over the escarpment at night feels heavy and ancient, grounding the modern day in a landscape that has shifted very little despite the passing years.
Lusk s’étire avec une humilité minérale sur les flancs de l’Escarpement d'Eardley, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous une lumière de fin de jour qui bleuit les crêtes. Le sol, pierreux et exigeant, dicte un rythme de vie mesuré, hérité des défricheurs qui ont jadis ouvert des clairières dans cette rudesse boisée. À six kilomètres de distance, le Petit lac Lusk miroite comme une goutte de métal froid, tandis que la Rivière Gatineau, serpentant plus loin dans la vallée, imprime une lenteur souveraine au paysage environnant. Lusk puise sa force dans cette géographie de contrastes, où le granit affleure sous les racines des pins et des érables, rappelant aux habitants la patience nécessaire pour apprivoiser un relief si vertical. L'air y possède une netteté tranchante, une pureté qui semble gommer les années pour ne laisser que la texture brute des roches et le bruissement des vents descendant du plateau. Les activités humaines, discrètes, se fondent dans cette étendue sauvage sans jamais chercher à la dompter, cultivant plutôt une intimité silencieuse avec les boisés. Ici, la persistance des saisons sculpte les habitudes, forgeant une identité liée à la pierre et à l'eau, dans une harmonie que seule une présence longue et attentive permet de saisir pleinement.

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.
Location data for Lusk is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
