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 Beattyville.
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.

Beattyville is a locality in Lac-Despinassy; Abitibi, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Beattyville is located at 48.9089°N, 77.1156°W.
Beattyville rests along the persistent, dark currents of the Rivière Bell, where the landscape stretches out in a quiet expanse of boreal forest and muskeg. It lies 18.9 km south-south-west of Lebel-sur-Quévillon, QC (from Lebel-sur-Quévillon, QC: bearing 213°T), and is situated 12.5 km south-south-west of Rapide-des-Cèdres. The air here carries a sharp, resinous scent of spruce, and at dusk, the light turns a bruised violet that clings to the surface of the nearby Lac Lisse. The terrain is defined by the heavy, damp presence of the earth, providing a grounding silence that persists regardless of the season. To the north, the distant roar of Chutes Kiask hints at the power held by the waterways that carve through this northern solitude, shaping a world that feels both vast and intensely intimate. The history of Beattyville finds its roots in the hard, physical labor of clearing timber and navigating the logistics of the bush. Industry here has long been dictated by the reach of the rail line and the ability to extract resources from the surrounding woods, fostering a culture of self-reliance that defines the daily lives of its residents. Men and women go about their work with a pragmatic focus, acknowledging the cold and the short growing seasons as constants rather than obstacles. Life in Beattyville moves in accordance with the demands of the forest and the river, reflecting a heritage built on the necessity of endurance. Even as modern habits take hold, the underlying pulse of the region remains tied to the cycles of the Rivière Bell, which continues to act as the primary artery for the land.
Beattyville déploie ses modestes habitations sur les rives paisibles de la Rivière Bell, là où le ciel boréal semble s'abaisser pour caresser la forêt boréale. Dans cette contrée du Lac-Despinassy, le temps se suspend au-dessus du miroir sombre des eaux, tandis que le Lac Lisse, situé à peine à deux kilomètres, offre une halte silencieuse aux vents qui dévalent les plaines nordiques. L'air y possède cette pureté tranchante des terres pionnières, chargée d'une mélancolie douce qui rappelle les labeurs anciens des bâtisseurs de rails. Non loin, le grondement sourd des Chutes Kiask, distantes de onze kilomètres, ponctue le silence de la forêt d'une respiration éternelle. Beattyville conserve la mémoire des travailleurs du bois et des défricheurs dont les gestes ont forgé l'identité de ce sol rocailleux et tenace. Lorsque la lumière décline, le crépuscule teinte le paysage de nuances cuivrées, révélant la texture rugueuse des écorces et l'immensité des espaces sauvages qui encerclent les foyers. Ici, la vie suit le rythme lent des éléments, dans une solitude habitée où chaque lever de soleil confirme la persistance d'une présence humaine modeste, mais résolue, face à l'immensité brute de l'Abitibi.
