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 Sainte-Marthe-du-Cap.
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.

Sainte-Marthe-du-Cap is a administrative sector in Trois-Rivières; Mauricie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Sainte-Marthe-du-Cap is located at 46.3792°N, 72.4861°W.
Sainte-Marthe-du-Cap occupies a quiet reach of land along the St. Lawrence, where the heavy, wide-shouldered current of the river dictates the slow turning of the seasons. It lies 6.0 km north-east of Trois-Rivières, QC (from Trois-Rivières, QC: bearing 48°T), and is situated 5.3 km north-west of Bécancour. The terrain rises toward the Plateau Laval, a firm expanse of earth that holds the morning mist long after the sun has climbed above the horizon. Nearby, the dark, still surface of Lac Montplaisir reflects the heavy clouds of the Mauricie, while the Rivière Bécancour cuts its path through the lower reaches, offering a constant, low-frequency hum to the landscape. When the light leans long and golden across the fields at dusk, the air carries a crispness that sharpens the edges of the horizon, grounding the spirit in the physical weight of the soil. The history of Sainte-Marthe-du-Cap is marked by the steady labor of those who cleared the land and built their lives against the backdrop of the river’s persistent motion. While Chutes Thibodeau lies some distance away, its presence is felt in the collective memory of a region shaped by the movement of water and the necessity of industry. Local life moves with a deliberate intensity, reflecting a heritage of agriculture and trade that has long defined the daily habits of the residents. The community maintains its character through these old, quiet traditions, where the persistent sound of the water against the bank serves as a reminder of the forces that have sustained the people here for generations.
Sainte-Marthe-du-Cap s’étire avec une patience tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le Plateau Laval rencontre le souffle large du fleuve. Dans cette contrée de la Mauricie, l’air conserve une fraîcheur particulière, chargée de l’humidité qui remonte des eaux, tandis que la lumière décline en teintes d'ambre sur les terres autrefois façonnées par le labeur agricole. La Rivière Bécancour serpente à proximité, apportant une note de fluidité constante à ce relief marqué par les plaines basses et le silence des horizons ouverts. À deux kilomètres, le Lac Montplaisir retient les reflets du ciel dans un miroir immobile, invitant à une contemplation que seule interrompt la rumeur lointaine des Chutes Thibodeau, situées à dix-neuf kilomètres de là. Sainte-Marthe-du-Cap préserve ce caractère singulier, hérité d'une longue fréquentation des sols et des courants, où chaque habitation semble s'ajuster à la géographie du lieu avec une discrétion naturelle. Les activités quotidiennes suivent le rythme lent des marées et des vents qui balaient la plaine, rappelant aux résidents la permanence de ce cadre naturel. Ici, l’histoire ne se raconte pas dans les livres, mais se perçoit dans la texture des chemins et dans la manière dont le paysage s’ouvre largement sur l’immensité bleue du grand cours d’eau.
