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 Mont-Dufresne.
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.

Mont-Dufresne is a hamlet in Stoke; Le Val-Saint-François, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Mont-Dufresne is located at 45.4744°N, 71.8414°W.
Mont-Dufresne rises as a solitary, resolute presence within the Colline de Beauvoir, where the land holds the quiet gravity of the Appalachian foothills. It lies 8.8 km north-north-east of Sherbrooke, QC (from Sherbrooke, QC: bearing 27°T), and is situated 14.2 km west of East Angus. The light here at dusk possesses a peculiar, metallic clarity, sharpening the outlines of the surrounding forest until every branch seems to vibrate against the cooling sky. Though the Rivière Stoke flows six kilometers away and Lac de Jos-Laventure sits four kilometers distant, the immediate terrain of Mont-Dufresne remains defined by its own rocky inclines and the persistent, low-lying mist that clings to the hollows. While Chutes à Kendall and the distant Parc national du Mont-Orford offer wilder, more dramatic vistas, Mont-Dufresne commands a modest, grounded authority, its slopes gathering the shadows long before the sun vanishes behind the horizon. Life in Stoke and the surrounding Le Val-Saint-François has long been shaped by the stubborn resilience of the soil and the seasonal shifts of the Canadian climate. Mont-Dufresne serves as a silent witness to a history rooted in agricultural toil, where the economy has transitioned from the heavy demands of early clearing to a contemporary existence that values the stillness of the countryside. The residents here move with an awareness of the land’s limits, finding beauty in the way frost patterns the fields or how the air carries the scent of pine and damp earth during the thaw. Traditions are kept in the small, private gestures of daily life, where the work of maintaining a homestead continues under the watchful, indifferent gaze of the hills.
Mont-Dufresne s’élève avec une humilité tranquille au sein de la Colline de Beauvoir, offrant aux regards une silhouette qui semble épouser le souffle même de la terre québécoise. La lumière du crépuscule glisse sur les pentes, révélant la texture minérale et boisée de ce terrain où l’histoire agricole des familles pionnières se lit encore dans le tracé des chemins de campagne. À quelques lieues de là, la Rivière Stoke poursuit sa course silencieuse, apportant une fraîcheur constante aux terres basses, tandis que le Lac de Jos-Laventure miroite sous le ciel, miroir immobile d’une quiétude paysanne. Plus loin, la présence imposante des Chutes à Kendall et les vastes étendues protégées du Parc national du Mont-Orford rappellent la grandeur sauvage qui cerne cette contrée. Mont-Dufresne cultive une identité forgée par le travail de la terre et le rythme des récoltes, conservant une sagesse héritée des anciens qui ont appris à lire les signes du vent et du gel. Les habitants entretiennent un lien secret avec les reliefs environnants, ces hauteurs qui protègent la vallée contre les assauts des tempêtes hivernales, laissant le quotidien se déployer dans une simplicité solennelle, loin de l'agitation des grands centres.
