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 Slab City.
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.

Slab City is a locality in Cookshire-Eaton; Le Haut-Saint-François, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Slab City is located at 45.3950°N, 71.6044°W.
Slab City rests quietly within the topographical embrace of the Eastern Townships, anchored by the persistent presence of the Rivière Eaton. It lies 22.6 km east of Sherbrooke, QC (from Sherbrooke, QC: bearing 92°T), and is situated 2.6 km south-east of Cookshire-Eaton. The terrain surrounding Slab City rises toward the slopes of Mont Jordan, where the thin, clear air of the higher elevations settles into the valleys during the cooling hours of dusk. To the east, the landscape holds the quiet stillness of Lac Bouchard, a basin of water tucked into the woods some three kilometers away, while the distant, imposing silhouette of Parc national du Mont-Mégantic looms thirty-five kilometers toward the horizon. The soil here carries a deep, mineral weight, supporting a landscape that has long been defined by the movement of the Rivière Eaton as it carves its passage through the bedrock of Cookshire-Eaton. Life in Slab City maintains a direct connection to the timber and agricultural legacies of Le Haut-Saint-François, where the industry of the past is still visible in the sturdy architecture of the older homesteads. Residents move through their days with a steady awareness of the changing seasons, marked by the way the light sharpens against the trees as autumn approaches the ridges of Mont Jordan. While the pace of existence remains modest, the people of Slab City preserve a distinct character shaped by the proximity of the water and the sheltering influence of the surrounding highlands. The local economy persists through a grounded reliance on the land, reflecting a quiet resilience that has anchored Slab City to this corner of the province for generations.
Slab City s'étire avec une humilité tranquille dans le Haut-Saint-François, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle entre les ondulations du relief. À proximité du Mont Jordan, le terrain s'incline doucement vers les méandres de la Rivière Eaton, dont les eaux froides marquent le rythme lent de la vie quotidienne. La lumière du crépuscule s'attarde sur les champs, révélant une texture de sol labouré qui rappelle le labeur agricole persistant des familles pionnières. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac Bouchard miroite sous le ciel changeant, offrant un miroir immobile à la forêt environnante, tandis que le Parc national du Mont-Mégantic se dessine en toile de fond comme une sentinelle lointaine. Slab City porte en elle cette persévérance propre aux terres de colonisation, où l'économie repose sur la patience du bois et de la culture. Les habitants habitués aux caprices du climat cultivent une solidarité silencieuse, façonnée par la proximité des éléments naturels. Ici, l'air porte une odeur de terre humide et de feu de bois, soulignant une identité façonnée par les cycles immuables de la nature. Chaque chemin de terre invite à la découverte d'un patrimoine modeste, niché dans ce pli du paysage québécois où le silence devient presque une présence physique parmi les arbres.
