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 Trécesson.
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.

Trécesson is a township municipality in Trécesson; Abitibi, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Trécesson is located at 48.6500°N, 78.3167°W.
Trécesson sits within the northern reaches of the Abitibi region, where the land holds a quiet, austere stillness under the vast Canadian sky. It lies 17.7 km west-north-west of Amos, QC (from Amos, QC: bearing 302°T), and is situated 9.0 km south-south-west of Berry. The terrain around Trécesson is marked by the presence of the Collines Béarn, which rise with a muted authority against the horizon, providing a backdrop of enduring stone and shadow. A short distance away, the waters of Lac à la Perchaude mirror the changing moods of the clouds, while the Rivière Villemontel moves with a deliberate, low-voiced persistence through the surrounding woods. At dusk, the light here takes on a bruised, violet quality, clinging to the spruce needles and the rough bark of birch trees as the temperature drops. Beyond the immediate boundaries of the land, the vast expanse of Parc national d'Aiguebelle waits, a reminder of the deep, untamed wild that defines the character of this northern geography. The development of Trécesson emerged from the necessity of clearing rugged ground, and the local economy remains anchored in the stubborn vitality of agriculture and the extraction of resources from the boreal earth. Families here have long balanced the demands of the soil with the mechanical requirements of modern industry, maintaining a life that values a steady hand and a keen eye for the weather. Traditions in Trécesson often center on the seasonal cycles of the landscape, where the work of the harvest or the preparation for winter dictates the pace of the day. There is a particular clarity to the air during the transition between seasons, a crispness that sharpens the senses and highlights the resilience of those who call this place home.
Trécesson s’étire avec une patience minérale sous le ciel changeant de l’Abitibi, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle entre les ondulations des Collines Béarn. À deux kilomètres de distance, le Lac à la Perchaude offre une surface sombre qui capture les premières lueurs du crépuscule, transformant chaque reflet en une confidence silencieuse. La Rivière Villemontel serpente plus loin, à huit kilomètres, marquant le rythme lent de ce territoire forgé par une agriculture tenace et le labeur des pionniers qui ont défriché ces étendues forestières. Le Parc national d’Aiguebelle, situé à trente-six kilomètres, exerce une influence sauvage sur l’horizon, rappelant la proximité immédiate d’une nature indomptable qui définit le caractère des habitants. À Trécesson, l’air possède une netteté particulière, une fraîcheur qui imprègne les champs et les rangs, soulignant la rudesse du climat et la solidité des racines locales. Les jours s’écoulent sans précipitation, rythmés par les travaux de la terre et la persistance d’un héritage qui valorise la discrétion et le travail manuel. Ici, la beauté naît de la simplicité des lignes, des boisés qui bordent les routes et de cette terre qui, malgré les hivers longs, continue d’offrir son labeur à ceux qui choisissent de l’habiter avec une fidélité inébranlable.
