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 Marcotte.
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.

Marcotte is a administrative sector in Normétal; Abitibi-Ouest, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Marcotte is located at 49.0000°N, 79.3500°W.
Marcotte rests within the rugged, ancient expanse of the Collines Abitibi, where the earth holds a quiet, stoic weight. It lies 24.0 km north-north-west of La Sarre, QC (from La Sarre, QC: bearing 334°T), and is situated 1.1 km east-north-east of Normétal. The terrain here is marked by the presence of Lac Des Méloizes, which sits just 4 km away, its surface often catching the bruised purples and golds of a northern dusk before the shadows lengthen across the spruce stands. Beyond the immediate reach of the settlements, the Rivière Turgeon flows 11 km away, carving a path through the landscape that acts as a silent witness to the seasonal shifts of frost and thaw. The air in Marcotte carries a crisp, mineral sharpness, a reminder that the land here is defined by the resilient character of the Canadian Shield. The history of Marcotte is inextricably linked to the broader push into the Abitibi-Ouest region, a development driven by the promise of natural resources and the persistence of those who worked the earth. Industry has long dictated the pace of life, with the local economy rooted in the extraction and labor that once drew settlers to this challenging frontier. Even now, Marcotte maintains a sense of deliberate purpose, reflecting the endurance required to thrive in such a secluded pocket of the north. Life here moves with a steady, pragmatic gravity, honoring a tradition of self-reliance that continues to shape the identity of the people who reside among these hills.
Marcotte déploie ses horizons sur un sol façonné par la rudesse et la persévérance, là où les Collines Abitibi dessinent une ligne onduleuse contre le ciel boréal. Dans cette étendue où le silence s'étire avec une noblesse tranquille, le Lac Des Méloizes offre une surface miroitante qui capte les dernières lueurs du jour, prolongeant l'éclat cuivré du couchant sur les terres basses. Non loin de là, la Rivière Turgeon poursuit son cheminement discret à travers la forêt, apportant une fraîcheur constante à ce relief marqué par l'effort des défricheurs. Marcotte conserve une identité forgée par le travail acharné de ceux qui ont su apprivoiser cette terre argileuse et exigeante, transformant les espaces sauvages en sillons ordonnés. L'air y possède une pureté tranchante, chargée de cette odeur de sapinage et de terre humide si particulière aux matins d'automne. Les habitants maintiennent une existence rythmée par la vigilance face aux éléments, cultivant une solidarité discrète qui résiste aux grands vents. Chaque parcelle ici raconte une histoire de patience, celle d'hommes et de femmes ayant choisi de bâtir leur demeure dans la proximité immédiate de ces eaux calmes et de ces hauteurs protectrices, trouvant une forme de plénitude dans la simplicité rigoureuse de ce paysage septentrional.
