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 Village-des-Chutes.
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.

Village-des-Chutes is a hamlet in Ham-Nord; Arthabaska, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Village-des-Chutes is located at 45.8769°N, 71.6864°W.
Village-des-Chutes rests within the quiet embrace of the Colline Boudreau, where the land rises in modest, firm swells to meet the cooling breath of the Rivière Nicolet. It lies 22.4 km east-north-east of Val-des-Sources, QC (from Val-des-Sources, QC: bearing 60°T), and is situated 4.3 km south-west of Ham-Nord. The water of the Rivière Nicolet pulls steadily past the banks, carrying the silver light of the morning toward the deeper valleys beyond the Colline Boudreau. To the north, the landscape holds its breath, distant from the wilder reaches of Parc national de Frontenac, while the presence of Lac Nicolet and the distant Chutes Mortes mark the horizon with the memory of glacial movement and ancient stone. At dusk, the light here turns a pale, bruised violet, catching the edges of the fields and turning the grass into a field of shivering copper. The history of Village-des-Chutes lingers in the sturdy foundations of its older structures, built by those who first read the potential of the soil and the proximity of the river to drive the machinery of early industry. Agriculture and timber shaped the initial ambition of the settlers, leaving behind a legacy of hard-won persistence that defines the character of the people who reside here today. Even now, the economy of Village-des-Chutes leans into the rhythms of the land, favoring a steady, manual engagement with the harvests and the forest. The air carries a scent of damp earth and pine needles, a reminder that the wilder hills are never far, and the quiet dignity of the work performed here serves as a humble anchor for those who call this valley home.
Village-des-Chutes s'étire avec une lenteur contemplative sur les flancs vallonnés de la Colline Boudreau, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous la lumière dorée des fins d'après-midi. Le courant de la Rivière Nicolet modèle le rythme de ce paysage, offrant une présence constante qui accompagne le quotidien des habitants de Ham-Nord. L'air y possède une fraîcheur singulière, chargée de l'humidité des forêts environnantes et de l'effluve des labours, rappelant que la survie, ici, est une affaire de patience et de labeur partagé. À une distance de onze kilomètres, les Chutes Mortes et le Lac Nicolet ponctuent l'horizon géographique, tandis que le Parc national de Frontenac, situé à trente-six kilomètres, étend son influence sauvage sur le relief plus lointain. Village-des-Chutes conserve une identité humble, nourrie par une tradition agricole tenace qui refuse de s'effacer devant le tumulte du monde moderne. Les maisons semblent s'agripper au sol avec une simplicité rustique, leurs façades observant les variations du ciel au-dessus de la vallée. Chaque sentier qui serpente parmi les arbres de la Colline Boudreau raconte une histoire de persévérance, illustrant comment les familles se sont établies dans cette contrée pour y cultiver une existence paisible, rythmée par les caprices de la Rivière Nicolet et la clarté changeante des matins.
