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 Béland.
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.

Béland is a locality in Saint-Gédéon-de-Beauce; Beauce-Sartigan, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Béland is located at 45.7981°N, 70.6228°W.
Béland sits nestled within the rolling, wooded terrain of Saint-Gédéon-de-Beauce, where the land rises and falls with a quiet, persistent gravity. It lies 32.0 km north-east of Lac-Mégantic, QC (from Lac-Mégantic, QC: bearing 39°T), and is situated 5.8 km south of Saint-Gédéon-de-Beauce. The Rivière Samson carves a narrow, silver path through the terrain near Béland, its cool currents steady and constant against the dark earth of the valley. At dusk, the light here thins into a pale, bruised violet, settling over the trees and casting long, sharp shadows that seem to hold their breath until the stars emerge. Ten kilometers away, the stillness of Lac Jolin offers a deeper, more profound silence, reflecting the sky in a way that makes the surrounding forest feel both vast and intimate. Life in Béland has long been shaped by the industry of the woods and the stubborn yield of the fields, where the heartbeat of the local economy resides in the steady work of those who know the timber and the soil. The people here move with a deliberate grace, a habit born from generations of tending to the land and navigating the seasonal shifts of the Beauce-Sartigan region. On quiet afternoons, the air carries a faint, resinous scent of pine and damp stone, a fragrance that remains long after the sun has dipped below the horizon. Every structure and path in Béland reflects a lineage of persistence, where the past is not a memory but a presence felt in the turn of a road or the sturdy frame of a barn, grounding the spirit in the simple, honest weight of the countryside.
Béland s'étire avec une simplicité austère sur les rives de la Rivière Samson, où le courant semble retenir le souffle des terres beauceronnes. Le terrain, façonné par les soubresauts du sol et la persistance des travaux agricoles, déploie ses ondulations sous une lumière qui, dès le déclin du jour, teinte les champs d’une nuance cuivrée et pensive. À une dizaine de kilomètres de là, la présence du Lac Jolin distille une fraîcheur singulière dans l'air, rappelant aux habitants la proximité des eaux dormantes qui ponctuent l'horizon. L’économie de Béland puise sa force dans une fidélité obstinée à la terre, héritage d'une patience paysanne qui ne demande rien aux grands récits. Ici, le rythme quotidien s'accorde au balancement des arbres et au murmure inlassable de la Rivière Samson, laquelle trace un sillon discret à travers le relief. Les maisons, modestes et droites, observent le passage des heures dans une quiétude que seul trouble le vent du soir, venant rappeler que Béland demeure un point de repère essentiel pour ceux qui habitent ces étendues de Saint-Gédéon-de-Beauce. Chaque geste de labeur se confond avec la rudesse du climat, offrant une existence où le silence devient la langue la plus juste pour décrire la beauté dépouillée de ce territoire.

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.
