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 McCourts Corner.
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.

McCourts Corner is a hamlet in Val-Joli; Le Val-Saint-François, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. McCourts Corner is located at 45.6008°N, 72.0169°W.
McCourts Corner sits quietly amidst the rugged embrace of the Colline Hardwood, where the terrain rises in sturdy, timbered swells above the Rivière Saint-François. It lies 20.6 km south-south-west of Val-des-Sources, QC (from Val-des-Sources, QC: bearing 197°T), and is situated 12.4 km south-east of Richmond. The air here carries a sharp, clean clarity, particularly at dusk when the cooling currents off the water settle against the slopes and the light turns the leaves into a flicker of copper and deep bronze. While the landscape is defined by the steady passage of the Rivière Saint-François, the nearby Chutes à Kendall contribute a persistent, low-frequency hum to the environment, a sound that anchors the stillness of the woods. Further afield, the presence of Petit lac Saint-François and the distant silhouette of Parc national du Mont-Orford define the broader horizon, framing a land that feels both expansive and intimately held. The character of McCourts Corner remains rooted in the practical persistence of Val-Joli and the wider Le Val-Saint-François region, where the economy has long drawn its strength from the land and the timber stands. Life in McCourts Corner moves with a deliberate, seasonal focus, reflecting a heritage of agricultural diligence and forestry that has persisted through generations of change. There is a distinct patience in the way the local work is carried out, a quiet acknowledgment that the prosperity of the region relies on the health of the surrounding hardwood and the vitality of the river. Even as modern demands shift the focus of daily industry, the fundamental identity of McCourts Corner stays aligned with the physical reality of the earth, maintaining a stoic, hardworking grace that defines the people who call this stretch of the valley home.
McCourts Corner s'étire avec une patience tranquille sur les terres basses qui bordent la Rivière Saint-François, là où le sol semble retenir encore la fraîcheur des ombres portées par la Colline Hardwood. Le relief, marqué par des ondulations douces, rappelle aux rares passants que la géologie ici demeure maîtresse, sculptant le quotidien des familles agricoles qui occupent ces parcelles depuis plusieurs générations. À l'approche du crépuscule, la lumière s'alanguit sur les champs, révélant une texture de terre grasse et nourricière, tandis que le murmure de la Rivière Saint-François accompagne le retour des troupeaux vers les étables. L'horizon est dominé par la silhouette imposante de la Colline Hardwood, sentinelle immuable qui protège les habitants des vents dominants. Non loin, l'eau vive des Chutes à Kendall scande le rythme des jours, rappelant la puissance ancienne des courants, alors que le Petit lac Saint-François, situé à une distance propice à la rêverie, semble offrir une pause de silence minéral. Même si le Parc national du Mont-Orford exerce son attrait lointain sur les voyageurs en quête d'espaces sauvages, McCourts Corner cultive sa propre distinction par cette humilité des choses simples, où chaque sentier et chaque courbe de terrain perpétuent une manière d'exister liée intimement à la terre.
