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 Tomawapocokanan.
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.

Tomawapocokanan is a locality in La Tuque; Mauricie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Tomawapocokanan is located at 48.3539°N, 74.6411°W.
Tomawapocokanan rests quietly upon the rugged, forested shore of Réservoir Gouin, where the land meets the expansive reach of the water. It lies 80.5 km north-west of Manouane, QC (from Manouane, QC: bearing 310°T), and is situated 27.5 km west of Le Village-Inondé. The air here holds a crisp, northern clarity, carrying the scent of pine needles and damp earth as the light catches the ripples of the reservoir at dusk, turning the surface into a sheet of hammered copper. While the Rivière de la Galette flows through the wilderness about 14 km away, the immediate surroundings of Tomawapocokanan remain defined by the vast, intricate shoreline and the deep, silent woods of La Tuque. The history of Tomawapocokanan stays closely aligned with the seasonal cycles of the boreal forest and the traditional practices of those who have long navigated these waterways. In the Mauricie region, the local economy continues to draw its strength from the wilderness, with activities centered on the quiet harvest of the land and the stewardship of the reservoir’s resources. Life in Tomawapocokanan moves in accordance with the shifting seasons, where the primary tradition involves a deep, abiding respect for the terrain and the cold, bracing winters that settle over the trees. Between the stillness of the deep woods and the persistent, dark presence of the water, the people here maintain a life of deliberate, measured focus.
Tomawapocokanan s'étend avec une patience minérale sur les rives vastes et découpées du Réservoir Gouin, là où l'horizon semble se dilater dans une clarté presque liquide. La lumière du crépuscule y transforme l'eau en une surface de mercure, tandis que l'air, chargé d'une humidité forestière, porte le silence propre aux contrées éloignées de la Mauricie. À une distance de quatorze kilomètres, le cours sinueux de la Rivière de la Galette imprime son rythme discret sur le relief, rappelant la permanence des flux naturels dans ce territoire où la forêt boréale dicte ses lois. Tomawapocokanan porte en lui la mémoire des passages anciens, une présence humaine qui s'ajuste avec humilité aux exigences de la topographie locale et aux caprices du climat. Ici, le quotidien se mesure à l'immensité des espaces boisés et au miroitement constant du Réservoir Gouin, imposant une existence rythmée par la rigueur des éléments et la beauté austère des cycles naturels. Les activités humaines s'effacent devant la majesté de l'étendue, laissant place à une quiétude profonde où chaque détail, de la texture des écorces à la profondeur des eaux, compose une réalité tangible, dépouillée de tout artifice.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
