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-Maher.
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-Maher is a locality in Franquelin; Manicouagan, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Tour-Maher is located at 49.3117°N, 67.9497°W.
Tour-Maher rests within the quiet expanse of the Plaine de la Tour, where the land meets the St. Lawrence with a stoic, northern grace. It lies 17.7 km north-east of Baie-Comeau, QC (from Baie-Comeau, QC: bearing 55°T), and is situated 4.7 km west-north-west of Franquelin. The Rivière Mistassini carves a persistent path through the terrain, its waters holding the cold clarity of the highlands even as the daylight fades into a pale, bruised violet. Nearby, Lac de la Tour sits in stillness just a kilometer away, reflecting the surrounding spruce and the shifting moods of the sky. The atmosphere here possesses a certain weight, a density of air that carries the scent of damp earth and coming snow, grounding the senses in the immediate reality of the bedrock. Those who traverse the landscape toward the Chutes à Thompson, located eight kilometers distant, find themselves moving through a wilderness that demands attention, where the pulse of the earth feels close to the surface. Tour-Maher draws its character from the proximity of the water and the resilient timber industry that has long defined the local economy. Life in Tour-Maher follows the seasonal shifts of the forest, with the work of the woodsmen and the movement of logs shaping the daily cycle of labor. Small, functional structures stand against the elements, their presence marking a long-standing human connection to the rugged terrain of the coast. The local traditions here are quiet, built upon a familiarity with the terrain that is passed down as surely as the skills required to navigate the Rivière Mistassini. Residents observe the change of the seasons not through calendars, but by the way the ice forms along the banks or the specific amber quality of the light as it stretches across the Plaine de la Tour during the autumn months.
Tour-Maher s’étire avec une sérénité mélancolique sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le souffle salin rencontre la rudesse tranquille de la Plaine de la Tour. Dans cette contrée où le regard se perd vers l’horizon maritime, la Rivière Mistassini serpente avec une lenteur solennelle, marquant de son tracé argenté la topographie des terres environnantes. À peine à un kilomètre de là, le Lac de la Tour recueille les derniers reflets cuivrés du jour, tandis que le grondement lointain des Chutes à Thompson murmure à l’oreille des bois une plainte ancienne et continue. L’économie de Tour-Maher, forgée par la proximité immédiate de ces eaux nourricières, porte en elle la mémoire des travaux sylvicoles et le rythme patient des gens qui habitent ces confins. Lorsque le crépuscule dépose sur la Plaine de la Tour une lumière nacrée, la silhouette des arbres se découpe contre un ciel immense, révélant la noblesse austère de ce territoire québécois. Les habitants, habitués à la rigueur climatique, entretiennent une relation de respect envers cette nature souveraine qui dicte ses lois aux abords du fleuve. Ici, la vie quotidienne suit une cadence apaisée, portée par la présence constante de la Rivière Mistassini, véritable artère vitale reliant le labeur des hommes à la permanence sauvage des éléments.
