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 Scotstown.
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.

Scotstown is a town in Scotstown; Le Haut-Saint-François, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Scotstown is located at 45.5236°N, 71.2809°W.
Scotstown rests upon a landscape defined by the persistent, cool currents of the Rivière au Saumon, which pulls the gaze toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Le Pain de Sucre. It lies 7.2 km west-north-west of Franceville, QC (from Franceville, QC: bearing 299°T), and is situated 8.1 km north-west of Secteur de Franceville. The air here holds a particular clarity at dusk, a thin, silver sharpness that seems to sharpen the outlines of the nearby woods, while Lac Dumoulin sits in quiet composure just a short distance from the center of Scotstown. Further out, the sprawling presence of Parc national du Mont-Mégantic provides a rugged backdrop to the horizon, grounding the visual experience of the region in vast, protected expanses of granite and pine. The history of Scotstown reflects a legacy of industry and labor, once deeply anchored in the processing of wood and the operation of mills that utilized the local waterways. Today, the pace of life maintains a steady, deliberate character, influenced by the seasonal shifts that dictate the agricultural and forestry cycles of Le Haut-Saint-François. Residents observe the passing of the year through the changing light upon the river, a rhythmic progression that persists despite the modernization of regional commerce. The persistence of these traditions ensures that the character of Scotstown remains distinct, marked by a quiet resilience that mirrors the endurance of the surrounding terrain.
Scotstown se déploie avec une humilité singulière le long des méandres de la Rivière au Saumon, là où le terrain s'incline doucement sous l'ombre portée du Pain de Sucre. La lumière déclinante du soir teinte les façades de bois d'une patine cuivrée, révélant les héritages industriels qui ont façonné le destin de Scotstown au milieu des terres fertiles du Haut-Saint-François. À peine à un kilomètre, les eaux calmes du Lac Dumoulin retiennent le ciel dans un miroir immobile, tandis qu'à douze kilomètres de distance, les reliefs imposants du Parc national du Mont-Mégantic dominent l'horizon de leur présence minérale. L'air y possède une fraîcheur vive, chargée de l'odeur des résineux et de l'humidité du cours d'eau, rappelant aux passants la proximité constante d'une nature sauvage qui ne demande pas de permission pour exister. Ici, les jours s'écoulent selon un rythme lent, marqué par le travail des mains et le respect des terres, loin des agitations urbaines. La texture du sol, lourde et généreuse, porte en elle les souvenirs d'une époque où les moulins battaient la mesure de la vie quotidienne. Chaque ruelle semble murmurer le passage des générations qui ont bâti ce paysage, composant une identité solide, résolument tournée vers la pérennité du calme et la rigueur du climat québécois.
