This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Mellon, 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).

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 Mellon.
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.

Mellon is a hamlet in Mansfield-et-Pontefract; Pontiac, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Mellon is located at 45.9056°N, 76.8447°W.
Mellon rests in a quiet fold of the land near the Colline Butler, where the terrain rises in rugged silence above the Rivière Noire. It lies 10.9 km north-west of Fort-Coulonge, QC (from Fort-Coulonge, QC: bearing 311°T), and is situated 5.4 km east-north-east of Spotswood. The air here holds a sharp, crystalline clarity, especially at dusk when the fading light catches the dark, moving surface of the river. Nearby, the Réserve écologique de la Chênaie-des-Îles-Finlay guards a rare stillness just two kilometers away, its protected groves offering a sanctuary that mirrors the solitude found at Lac Canot. The landscape feels held by these features, a collection of water and earth that dictates the slow, deliberate pace of the day. The history of Mellon remains tied to the currents of the Rivière Noire, which once served as a vital artery for the timber trade that defined early life in Mansfield-et-Pontefract. While the roar of the Chutes de la Rivière Noire echoes six kilometers away, the local economy has shifted from those industrial beginnings toward a quieter reliance on the land. Today, Mellon maintains a character shaped by the persistence of its residents and the enduring presence of the surrounding woods. Life here follows the subtle shifts of the season, marking time by the way the frost retreats from the banks of the river or the way the wind moves through the trees near the Colline Butler.
Mellon s’étire avec une humilité certaine aux pieds de la Colline Butler, là où les terres de Mansfield-et-Pontefract offrent au regard une étendue de silence et de terre nourricière. La Rivière Noire trace son sillage parmi les affleurements rocheux, murmurant une mélodie ancienne qui accompagne les travaux des champs et la patience des hommes. Non loin, le Lac Canot dort sous une lumière dorée, conservant dans ses eaux sombres le calme des après-midis d'été, tandis que la Réserve écologique de la Chênaie-des-Îles-Finlay protège une intimité végétale que le tumulte du monde semble avoir oubliée. Plus bas, le fracas lointain des Chutes de la Rivière Noire ponctue l’air vif d’une cadence constante, rappelant la puissance brute qui façonne ce relief. Mellon porte en son sol la mémoire des défricheurs, ces silhouettes obstinées qui ont su apprivoiser la rudesse du climat pour y bâtir une vie simple, rythmée par l’alternance des récoltes et le souffle du vent sur les pentes. Ici, la clarté du crépuscule s’attarde longuement sur la crête des arbres, baignant les fermes et les chemins dans une douceur presque irréelle. Chaque bâtisse, chaque sentier qui s’enfonce vers la rivière, raconte une persévérance silencieuse, une manière d’être au monde qui privilégie la lenteur du geste et la justesse de l'instant face à l'immensité du Pontiac.

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 Mellon 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.
