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 Baie-Noire.
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.

Baie-Noire is a hamlet in Lochaber; Papineau, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Baie-Noire is located at 45.6008°N, 75.1989°W.
Baie-Noire sits tucked against the rise of Quigley Hill, where the land holds the quiet gravity of the Canadian Shield. It lies 42.3 km north-east of Ottawa, QC (from Ottawa, QC: bearing 45°T), and is situated 12.6 km north of Clarence-Rockland. The Rivière Blanche flows with a steady, deliberate pace past this shoreline, its surface catching the bruised purple light that settles over the water just before true dusk. To the east, the sprawling expanse of Parc national de Plaisance offers a wilder relief to the settled terrain, while the nearby Chutes du Moulin mark the landscape with the persistent, rhythmic sound of falling water. Even at a remove of seven kilometers, the presence of Lac à Duguay influences the humidity of the air, keeping the vegetation lush and the mornings heavy with a fine, silver mist. The historical identity of Baie-Noire remains tied to the slow, seasonal work of the land and the harvesting traditions that have long defined life along the Rivière Blanche. Local industry has historically leaned into the rhythms of forestry and small-scale agriculture, trades that require an intimate knowledge of the soil and the changing temper of the seasons. People here move with a practicality born of long winters, valuing the resilience required to maintain a home near the slopes of Quigley Hill. In the evenings, the distant, muffled roar of Chutes du Moulin provides a constant backdrop to the quietude of the houses, a reminder of the water that shaped the valley long before the arrival of the first mills.
Baie-Noire s'étire avec une patience minérale sur les terres de Lochaber, là où la lumière déclinante du soir accroche les pentes de la colline Quigley pour y projeter des ombres allongées, presque tactiles. La Rivière Blanche serpente à travers ce relief, ses eaux sombres dictant le rythme lent d'une existence tournée vers la terre et les forêts environnantes. À quelques lieues, la quiétude des Chutes du Moulin ponctue le silence de son chant régulier, tandis que le Lac à Duguay conserve sous sa surface une clarté immobile, héritage d'un horizon sauvage qui s'étend jusqu'aux limites du Parc national de Plaisance. Les familles de Baie-Noire habitent ce paysage avec une humilité héritée des premiers défricheurs, trouvant dans la rudesse du climat et la fertilité des sols une raison de persévérer. Ici, le quotidien ne s'embarrasse pas de grands discours, préférant le murmure du vent dans les hautes herbes et le craquement du bois sous les pieds. Chaque foyer conserve le souvenir des travaux agricoles qui ont façonné ces espaces, maintenant une connexion directe, sans artifice, avec la topographie singulière de cette portion du Québec.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
