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 West Ditton.
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.

West Ditton is a locality in La Patrie; Le Haut-Saint-François, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. West Ditton is located at 45.4019°N, 71.3047°W.
West Ditton rests within the quiet folds of the landscape, defined by the steady presence of the Rivière Eaton Nord and the looming profile of Le Pain de Sucre. It lies 12.4 km south-west of Secteur de Franceville, QC (from Secteur de Franceville, QC: bearing 224°T), and is situated 13.0 km south-west of Franceville. The terrain here catches the slanted light of late afternoon, turning the meadows into amber fields that seem to hold their breath before the evening chill settles over the valley. Even the air feels heavier, fragrant with the damp earth and the cooling currents rising from the riverbank, grounding West Ditton in a stillness that persists through the changing seasons. The nearby Parc national du Mont-Mégantic watches over the horizon like a dark, forested sentinel, while the distant Lac Dumoulin remains a hidden mirror reflecting the vast, clear sky above these rolling slopes. The history of West Ditton emerges from the labor of those who cleared the timber and coaxed life from the rocky, demanding soil. Agriculture remains the quiet heartbeat of the local economy, where small-scale farming follows the seasonal turning of the earth rather than the frantic pace of the outside world. Families here maintain a deep familiarity with the land, passing down the knowledge of where the frost lingers longest and how the river responds to the spring melt. Life in West Ditton carries the weight of long-standing traditions, moving with a deliberate grace that values the preservation of the landscape over the pursuit of rapid change. Amidst the quiet, the work of the day concludes with the simple, necessary focus of a people who find their contentment in the familiar geography of their own backyard.
West Ditton se déploie dans une langueur contemplative, niché sous l'ombre protectrice du Pain de Sucre qui domine les terres de La Patrie. Ici, la lumière du couchant semble s'attarder sur les courbes de la Rivière Eaton Nord, dont les eaux froides et claires parcourent le sol avec une régularité apaisante, rappelant le labeur discret des premières familles venues défricher ces terres du Haut-Saint-François. Le relief, sculpté par une géologie ancienne, s'étire vers le Parc national du Mont-Mégantic situé à une douzaine de kilomètres, offrant un horizon dont la noblesse sauvage apaise le regard. À une quinzaine de kilomètres, le Lac Dumoulin repose dans un silence minéral, complétant ce paysage où la vie agricole se plie aux exigences d'un climat vigoureux. Dans les champs de West Ditton, l'air porte une odeur de terre travaillée et de sève, héritage d'une tradition rurale qui privilégie la patience sur l'agitation. Les habitants, héritiers de gestes séculaires, entretiennent un rapport tactile avec ce terrain escarpé, où chaque parcelle cultivée exprime une résilience tenace face aux hivers prolongés. La présence de la forêt environnante et la proximité des sommets confèrent à cet espace une dimension presque solennelle, invitant à une existence où le temps se mesure davantage au rythme des récoltes qu'à celui des horloges.
