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 Mount Loyal.
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.

Mount Loyal is a hamlet in Rawdon; Matawinie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Mount Loyal is located at 46.0400°N, 73.8000°W.
Mount Loyal rises with a quiet, stubborn prominence above the rugged terrain of Rawdon, standing as a sentinel near the Mont Vénus. It lies 27.6 km west of Joliette, QC (from Joliette, QC: bearing 274°T), and is situated 7.1 km west of Rawdon. The summit catches the waning light of late afternoon, turning the granite and spruce into a deep, bruised violet that lingers long after the sun has dipped below the horizon. Below the slopes, the landscape holds the stillness of the northern woods, where Lac des Pins rests in a basin of shadow only a kilometer away. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and cooling stone, a sharp reminder of the elevation, while the nearby Les Cascades provides a constant, low-frequency hum that vibrates through the bedrock. The history of Mount Loyal reflects the persistence of those who settled the Matawinie, carving a living from the dense timber and rocky soil that defines this corner of the world. While the Rivière Burton flows five kilometers distant, its influence on the valley’s early development remains clear, serving as a pulse for the logging and agricultural ventures that once sustained the local economy. Today, the day-to-day life near Mount Loyal follows the turning of the seasons, marked by the slow migration of workers and the quiet maintenance of properties that have stood for generations. The land demands a certain rigor from its inhabitants, who move with a deliberate attention to the climate and the shifting moods of the forest, ensuring that the character of the region stays as firm and grounded as the mountain itself.
Mount Loyal s'élève au-dessus des terres de la Matawinie, imposant sa présence minérale sous une lumière crépusculaire qui semble suspendre le souffle du monde. À proximité, le relief s'incline doucement vers le Mont Vénus, tandis que le Lac des Pins miroite dans un silence argenté, capturant les dernières lueurs du jour. L'air, chargé d'une fraîcheur résineuse, circule entre les troncs et descend vers la Rivière Burton dont le murmure constant accompagne le labeur discret des habitants. À quelques kilomètres de là, le fracas lointain des Cascades ponctue la quiétude des bois, rappelant la force sauvage qui façonne depuis toujours ce terrain escarpé. L'activité humaine ici se plie aux exigences du sol et aux rigueurs de la zone climatique, cultivant une résilience héritée des premières occupations du territoire. Mount Loyal demeure le pivot naturel de ce paysage où chaque sentier semble raconter une obstination silencieuse face aux éléments. Entre le miroitement des eaux paisibles du Lac des Pins et la vigueur du courant de la Rivière Burton, les jours s'écoulent dans une sobriété qui ne demande aucune parure, trouvant sa propre éloquence dans la texture brute des roches et la densité des forêts environnantes.
