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 Saint-Élie-d'Orford.
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.

Saint-Élie-d'Orford is a administrative sector in Sherbrooke; Estrie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Saint-Élie-d'Orford is located at 45.3958°N, 72.0417°W.
Saint-Élie-d'Orford rests within the rolling terrain of the Estrie region, where the land rises toward the Plateau Saint-Joseph in a series of quiet, deliberate swells. It lies 11.6 km west of Sherbrooke, QC (from Sherbrooke, QC: bearing 266°T), and is situated 14.4 km north-north-west of North Hatley. The air here holds a crisp, persistent clarity, especially at dusk when the fading light catches the dark edges of the distant Parc national du Mont-Orford, some 15 km away, grounding the horizon in deep violet shadows. While the Rivière aux Herbages flows through the wider landscape 9 km from the center, the immediate vicinity feels defined by the proximity of Lac Montjoie, located 5 km distant, which imparts a subtle, cooling moisture to the morning mist. The terrain demands a steady pace, as if the earth itself prefers the deliberate stride of a traveler over the haste of modern transit. Life in Saint-Élie-d'Orford reflects a long-standing balance between the rugged demands of the local topography and the quiet growth of its residential sectors. Once anchored by the broader agricultural ambitions of the Estrie, the economy has shifted toward a blend of suburban living and services that support those drawn to the nearby natural vistas. Residents often look toward the presence of Les Cascades, situated 17 km away, as a marker of the wilder character inherent to this part of Quebec. The daily routine follows the sun, moving from the sharp, bright mornings that sharpen the outlines of local cedar and pine to the hushed, darkening evenings that settle over the Plateau Saint-Joseph. In Saint-Élie-d'Orford, the transition from the bustling activity of nearby Sherbrooke to the stillness of the surrounding hills creates a distinct atmosphere, one where the land feels less like a backdrop and more like a companion to the people who reside there.
Saint-Élie-d'Orford s’étire avec une simplicité tranquille près du Plateau Saint-Joseph, où la terre semble retenir le silence des aubes froides. Dans ce secteur de l'Estrie, la lumière décline sur les champs avec une lenteur particulière, dorant les pentes qui mènent doucement vers les eaux calmes du Lac Montjoie, situé à quelques kilomètres. La Rivière aux Herbages serpente plus loin, marquant le terrain d'une présence sinueuse et discrète, tandis que les horizons sont dominés par la stature imposante du Parc national du Mont-Orford, dont la masse sombre s'impose aux confins de la vue. À environ dix-sept kilomètres, Les Cascades ajoutent une note de mouvement vif au relief environnant. Saint-Élie-d'Orford garde une allure de labeur et de patience, portée par une mémoire agricole qui façonne encore les gestes quotidiens des habitants. L'air y possède cette densité singulière des régions hautes, une fraîcheur qui descend des sommets pour se déposer sur les toits et les jardins. Ici, le rythme de vie s'accorde aux nuances changeantes du ciel, loin des agitations urbaines, offrant une existence tournée vers la terre et la proximité des éléments naturels qui ceignent le territoire de leur immensité paisible.
