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 Simonet.
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.

Simonet is a hamlet in Saint-François-de-Sales; Le Domaine-du-Roy, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Simonet is located at 48.3436°N, 72.0867°W.
Simonet rests within the quiet reach of Saint-François-de-Sales, cradled by the rugged presence of the Monts Jumeaux. It lies 21.8 km south-south-east of Roberval, QC (from Roberval, QC: bearing 153°T), and is situated 9.8 km south of Chambord. The terrain here holds a stillness that deepens as the light thins at dusk, casting long, sharp shadows across the clearing. Lac Sauveur sits just two kilometers away, its surface often mirroring the heavy, slate-colored clouds that drift over the higher ground. Further out, the Petite rivière Désir flows through the landscape, tracing a path five kilometers distant that defines the slow drainage of the surrounding woods. The air carries a crisp, mineral quality, smelling of damp earth and cooling stone, grounding Simonet in a geography that feels both ancient and persistent. Life in Le Domaine-du-Roy has long been defined by the stubborn vitality of those who work the land and timber. In Simonet, the economy remains tied to the forest and the seasonal cycles that dictate the pace of local labor. There is a specific, solitary beauty in the way the frost settles on the timber frames of older buildings, marking the transition between the frantic growth of summer and the long, white silence of winter. Traditions here are kept close, passed through families who have learned to read the shifts in the wind and the subtle changes in the forest canopy, finding a steady purpose in the quietude of a northern life.
Simonet se déploie sur les terres vastes et silencieuses de Saint-François-de-Sales, là où le sol semble garder le souvenir d'un labeur acharné. Le relief s'élève doucement vers les Monts Jumeaux, dont les silhouettes massives dominent l'horizon et imprègnent chaque après-midi d'une ombre longue et apaisante. À deux kilomètres de là, le Lac Sauveur offre une étendue d'eau calme, miroir fidèle des ciels changeants qui marquent le rythme des jours. Non loin, la Petite rivière Désir serpente avec une discrétion presque timide, irriguant une terre historiquement tournée vers les récoltes et le travail forestier. L'air y est vif, chargé d'une fraîcheur qui saisit la gorge dès que le soleil décline derrière les crêtes. Simonet conserve cette rudesse élégante des contrées où la nature dicte ses lois, imposant aux habitants une fidélité aux gestes simples et une patience héritée des anciens. Les bois environnants et les plaines travaillées forment un décor dépouillé, sans artifice, où la lumière déclinante révèle la texture rugueuse de l'écorce et la courbe des champs. Cette terre, façonnée par les saisons, demeure un espace de persévérance où chaque foyer, chaque parcelle, raconte une histoire de ténacité face à l'immensité du Domaine-du-Roy.
