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 Pointe-Gatineau.
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.

Pointe-Gatineau is a administrative sector in Gatineau; Outaouais, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Pointe-Gatineau is located at 45.4653°N, 75.6986°W.
Pointe-Gatineau rests at the confluence of history and water, where the land finds its edge against the Rivière Gatineau. It lies 4.3 km north-north-east of Gatineau, QC (from Gatineau, QC: bearing 13°T), and is situated 11.6 km south-east of Cantley. The air here holds a particular weight, carrying the damp, cool breath of the Rivière Gatineau as it pushes toward the confluence, while the shadow of Nanny Goat Hill looms as a silent sentinel over the shifting shoreline. In the quiet transition of dusk, the light catches the surface of the water, turning the current into a dark, moving mirror that reflects the persistence of the landscape. Nearby, the stillness of Lac Leamy lies about 2 km away, offering a contrast to the steady, forward motion of the river, while the distant, low roar of Rideau Falls, located about 3 km away, occasionally drifts across the horizon on a shifting breeze. Pointe-Gatineau carries the legacy of its origins as a hub for the timber trade, a history marked by the movement of logs down the Rivière Gatineau to serve the burgeoning industries of the region. The economy has long since evolved, yet the character of the streets retains a sense of purpose, grounded in the hard-won resilience of those who built their lives along these banks. Generations have looked toward the water not merely as a boundary, but as the primary artery of their existence, shaping a culture that respects the seasonal rise and fall of the river. Even today, the pace of daily life mirrors the deliberate flow of the current, steady and unyielding, as the residents maintain a quiet connection to the geography that defines their home.
Pointe-Gatineau se déploie avec une sérénité singulière sur les rives de la Rivière Gatineau, là où le courant semble ralentir pour saluer la terre ferme. À l'ombre protectrice de la colline Nanny Goat, le paysage conserve une allure de patience ancienne, façonnée par les eaux qui ont longtemps porté le bois et les espoirs des pionniers. La lumière du crépuscule s’attarde sur les façades, révélant une architecture modeste qui porte encore les échos du labeur des travailleurs d’autrefois. À seulement quelques kilomètres de distance, le Lac Leamy offre un miroir immobile au ciel, tandis que le fracas lointain des chutes Rideau ponctue le silence de l’air vespéral. Les habitants de Pointe-Gatineau partagent une relation intime avec ce relief, une familiarité née des cycles de la crue et du dégel. Chaque sentier semble porter la mémoire des premières familles qui ont défriché ces terres pour y établir une vie laborieuse, loin des grandes agitations. Ici, la vie quotidienne se mesure au rythme des éléments naturels, une persistance tranquille qui définit l’identité du secteur. Les résidents cultivent ce lien indéfectible avec leur environnement immédiat, préservant une dignité farouche dans chaque geste posé entre les rives et les hauteurs environnantes.
