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 Terrasse-Saint-François.
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.

Terrasse-Saint-François is a residential area in Drummondville; Drummond, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Terrasse-Saint-François is located at 45.8469°N, 72.3875°W.
Terrasse-Saint-François rests upon a quiet expanse of land where the earth holds the memory of ancient shifts, positioned near the elevations of La Petite Montagne. It lies 8.4 km east-south-east of Drummondville, QC (from Drummondville, QC: bearing 117°T), and is situated 10.2 km south-south-east of Saint-Cyrille-de-Wendover. The local atmosphere maintains a stillness that persists even when the wind carries the damp, cool scent of Lac Woodyatt, which sits a mere kilometer away. At dusk, the light here turns a bruised violet, catching the edges of the fields and casting long, thin shadows that seem to anchor the houses firmly against the horizon. While the Rivière Saint-François flows some seven kilometers distant, its presence is felt in the deep, fertile quality of the soil that defines the low-lying terrain. Life in Terrasse-Saint-François moves with the steady, predictable pulse of a Drummondville neighborhood that values the modesty of its domestic architecture. The economy here balances the legacy of regional industrial labor with the quiet demands of modern residential living, reflecting a pride in maintaining properties that face the changing seasons with resilience. Residents often trace their days by the sound of local traffic fading into the evening, a routine that remains undisturbed by the grander ambitions of the larger province. Though the history of the land is measured in the slow accumulation of family hearths rather than monuments, there is a distinct, solitary beauty in the way the frost settles on the rooftops during the long winters, turning the entire neighborhood into a singular, hushed study in grey and white.
Terrasse-Saint-François s’étire avec une discrétion studieuse sur les terres basses entourant Drummond, là où le relief s’infléchit vers la plaine. À peine à un kilomètre, les eaux calmes du Lac Woodyatt captent les dernières lueurs du crépuscule, renvoyant vers les demeures un éclat argenté qui semble suspendre le souffle des jardins. L’air, chargé d’une humidité légère, circule entre les parcelles cultivées et les boisés, tandis que la Rivière Saint-François chemine à sept kilomètres de distance, influençant par sa présence invisible le tempérament de ces plaines fertiles. Non loin, La Petite Montagne dresse son profil familier, repère immuable pour ceux qui habitent Terrasse-Saint-François. L’économie locale, héritière d’une tradition agricole tenace, se manifeste dans la régularité des horizons et la patience des gestes quotidiens. Ici, le ciel paraît plus vaste, s'ouvrant largement au-dessus des toitures pour offrir un spectacle de couleurs changeantes dès que le soleil bascule. La vie s’y écoule sans tumulte, rythmée par la transition des teintes sur la terre sombre et le frémissement des feuillages, offrant une existence où la mesure et la simplicité se rejoignent dans une harmonie paisible avec le terrain.
