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-Esprit.
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-Esprit is a municipality in Saint-Esprit; Montcalm, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Saint-Esprit is located at 45.9000°N, 73.6667°W.
Saint-Esprit rests upon the expansive reach of the Plateau de Terrebonne, where the horizon stretches wide and the light of late afternoon clings to the fields with a pale, persistent clarity. It lies 22.1 km south-west of Joliette, QC (from Joliette, QC: bearing 232°T), and is situated 15.3 km west-north-west of L'Épiphanie. The land here holds a quiet composure, defined by the proximity of Lac du Moulin, which sits six kilometers away, and the presence of the La Petite Rivière flowing through the low-lying terrain ten kilometers distant. Beyond these immediate contours, the landscape opens toward the distant rush of Chutes Dorwin, situated fifteen kilometers off, while the expansive grounds of Parc national des Îles-de-Boucherville wait thirty-five kilometers to the south. The air in Saint-Esprit carries a crisp, lingering coolness that seems to settle into the soil long before the sun dips below the edge of the plateau. The history of Saint-Esprit is rooted in the persistence of those who worked these fields, establishing an agricultural character that persists despite the shifting tides of the modern economy. Local traditions remain anchored in the cycles of the harvest, echoing a time when the rhythm of the day was dictated by the turning of the earth rather than the steady hum of passing traffic. Residents move through their routines with a practiced ease, finding stability in the modest landmarks and the familiar routes that connect the heart of Saint-Esprit to the surrounding countryside. This is a region where the weight of the past sits lightly, observable in the way the architecture of the older homes mirrors the straightforward, honest lines of the landscape itself.
Saint-Esprit déploie ses terres fertiles sur le Plateau de Terrebonne, là où le ciel semble s'abaisser pour caresser les sillons tracés par des générations de cultivateurs. Ce territoire, façonné par une patience héritée de ceux qui ont défriché les boisés, conserve une allure de quiétude solennelle sous la lumière déclinante du soir. Les eaux de La Petite Rivière serpentent à une dizaine de kilomètres, apportant une fraîcheur discrète à ce paysage agricole qui ne demande qu’à respirer. À quelques lieues, le Lac du Moulin offre ses reflets aux passants, tandis que le souffle des Chutes Dorwin se devine à peine dans le lointain, ajoutant une note mystérieuse à l'horizon. Bien que le Parc national des Îles-de-Boucherville impose sa présence à une distance plus marquée, Saint-Esprit conserve son caractère propre, marqué par le travail de la terre et une sobriété qui rappelle la rudesse des hivers québécois. Les habitants cultivent ici un attachement profond pour ces espaces vastes, où chaque rangée de récoltes raconte la persévérance. Saint-Esprit demeure ce point de repère humble, protégé par les plaines environnantes, où le rythme lent des travaux des champs dicte le passage des jours dans une harmonie simple et sans artifice.
