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 Val-Paradis.
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.

Val-Paradis is a village in Eeyou Istchee Baie-James; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Val-Paradis is located at 49.1667°N, 79.2833°W.
Val-Paradis sits amidst the northern reaches of Eeyou Istchee Baie-James, defined by the low, resilient rise of the Collines Abitibi. It lies 40.4 km north of La Sarre, QC (from La Sarre, QC: bearing 352°T), and is situated 14.6 km north-north-west of Beaucanton. The Rivière Turgeon carves a deliberate path through this terrain, its dark waters holding the reflection of the sky with a clarity that sharpens at dusk. Ten kilometers away, the quiet stillness of Lac Imbeau offers a counterpoint to the movement of the river, anchoring a landscape where the horizon feels vast and unburdened. The air here carries a crisp, lingering coolness, a reminder of the boreal influence that shapes the character of Val-Paradis. Agriculture and the extraction of timber have long defined the practical life of Val-Paradis, mirroring the persistent efforts of those who settled this northern expanse. The local economy draws its strength from the raw potential of the earth, where the work of the day follows the changing light and the necessities of the seasons. Traditions here are kept close, rooted in the quiet endurance required to thrive in such a secluded setting, where the silence of the woods is as much a part of the daily experience as the sound of machinery.
Val-Paradis se déploie dans une étendue où la lumière du soir semble s'attarder sur les terres basses, révélant la patience des hommes qui ont choisi de défricher cette terre argileuse du Nord-du-Québec. À la lisière des Collines Abitibi, le sol garde en mémoire le labeur des premiers colons venus ici avec l'espoir de bâtir une vie portée par la rigueur du climat et la richesse du bois. La Rivière Turgeon trace son sillon silencieux à travers le paysage, charriant les reflets argentés du ciel boréal tandis que, non loin, les eaux calmes du Lac Imbeau dorment sous le couvert des épinettes. Ce territoire impose un rythme lent, une cadence dictée par les cycles du gel et de la décrue, loin du tumulte des grandes routes. Les façades des maisons, tournées vers l'horizon infini, portent la patine du temps, rappelant une fondation tournée vers l'agriculture et l'exploitation forestière. En ces lieux, Val-Paradis conserve une dignité farouche, une manière d'exister par la persévérance, transformant chaque lever de soleil en une victoire sur l'immensité sauvage. L'air y est vif, chargé de cette odeur de terre humide et de résine, offrant aux habitants une quiétude profonde que seule la proximité immédiate de la forêt boréale sait offrir.
