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 Tour-Butney.
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.

Tour-Butney is a locality in Les Lacs-du-Témiscamingue; Témiscamingue, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Tour-Butney is located at 46.8156°N, 78.7711°W.
Tour-Butney rests as a quiet sentinel within the rugged expanse of Les Lacs-du-Témiscamingue, defined by the brooding presence of the Montagne du Trappeur. It lies 26.6 km east-north-east of Témiscaming, QC (from Témiscaming, QC: bearing 67°T), and is situated 11.9 km west-south-west of Chute-du-Pin-Rouge. The immediate terrain holds a stillness that gathers near the shoreline of Lac Mitt, where the water captures the pale, thin light of the northern sky in a mirror of dark obsidian. Beyond the immediate rise of the land, the broader geography of the region asserts itself, with the Rivière Kipawa carving its path through the deep woods some distance away. The atmosphere here is shaped by a high, bracing solitude, where the wind moves through the pines with a dry, rasping sound, and the shadows of the hills lengthen early across the rocky clearings. Life in Tour-Butney maintains a steady, deliberate pace, shaped by the cyclical demands of the landscape and a history rooted in the extraction and stewardship of these vast, timbered reaches. While the proximity of Parc national d'Opémican draws those who seek the deeper wilderness, the local character remains focused on the practicalities of the forest and the quiet endurance of those who live amidst its density. The economy here persists through the rhythm of seasonal work, where the labor of the hands matches the heavy silence of the surrounding ridges. Visitors often find that the stillness is not an absence of sound, but a presence that demands an observant, attentive quietude from anyone passing through the timbered hollows.
Tour-Butney s’élève avec une discrétion minérale dans la région de Les Lacs-du-Témiscamingue, où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous une lumière boréale qui étire les ombres des pins dès la fin de l’après-midi. À proximité de la Montagne du Trappeur, le relief impose une rigueur topographique qui façonne le quotidien des habitants, habitués aux caprices d’un climat où le givre vient souvent surprendre les premières pousses printanières. La présence du Lac Mitt, distant d’à peine un kilomètre, apporte une sérénité liquide à ce paysage de roches et de forêt, tandis que la Rivière Kipawa, serpentant à douze kilomètres de là, murmure une ancienne histoire de drave et de bois travaillé qui demeure le socle invisible de la mémoire locale. La rudesse du sol, loin d’être un obstacle, a forcé les résidents à développer une économie de subsistance et de patience, tournée vers une exploitation forestière respectueuse des vastes horizons. Le Parc national d’Opémican, situé à une trentaine de kilomètres, protège les échos de ces étendues sauvages où les traditions se perpétuent dans la solitude des soirées d’hiver. Tour-Butney incarne ainsi une forme de résistance tranquille, une présence humaine qui s’accorde humblement à la puissance des éléments, là où chaque pierre et chaque courbe de terrain racontent la persévérance de ceux qui ont choisi d’habiter ces confins.
