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 Belcourt.
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.

Belcourt is a municipality in Belcourt; La Vallée-de-l'Or, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Belcourt is located at 48.4008°N, 77.3542°W.
Belcourt rests within a landscape defined by the quiet presence of the Montagne de la Tour, which anchors the horizon with its steady, rising form. It lies 8.5 km west of Senneterre, QC (from Senneterre, QC: bearing 278°T), and is situated 21.3 km east of Barraute. The terrain surrounding Belcourt is shaped by the nearby Lac Pradel, a body of water that mirrors the pale, expansive sky of the region, while the Rivière des Peupliers winds its path through the woods about eight kilometers away. During the transition of dusk, the air grows thin and sharp, carrying a stillness that settles over the land like a fine, cooling mist. This environment encourages a life lived in accordance with the seasons, where the density of the forest and the proximity of these water features define the daily movement of those who call the region home. The history of Belcourt remains rooted in the traditional industries of the Abitibi region, reflecting a character forged by the demands of forestry and the quiet persistence of northern life. Economic activity here has long relied on the bounty of the timberlands, a pursuit that requires a deep familiarity with the rugged terrain and the cyclical nature of the harvest. Local traditions are marked by an understated resilience, observed in the way residents maintain their dwellings against the encroaching cold and the long, deep winters. There is a distinct clarity in the light here, which seems to sharpen the edges of the landscape and highlight the endurance of a people who find value in the solitude of the woods and the consistent work provided by the surrounding earth.
Belcourt s'étire avec une humilité tranquille sur les terres basses de La Vallée-de-l'Or, où le ciel semble s'abaisser pour mieux épouser les aspérités du sol. À proximité immédiate, le Lac Pradel miroite sous les derniers rayons du jour, offrant une surface d'argent liquide qui apaise le regard des habitants. Le relief se courbe doucement vers la Montagne de la Tour, dont la masse imposante domine l'horizon et semble protéger les foyers des vents du nord. À quelques encablures, la Rivière des Peupliers serpente entre les arbres, murmurant une mélodie constante qui accompagne le labeur quotidien des familles établies sur ces terres fertiles. La vie à Belcourt s'articule autour d'une ruralité tenace, façonnée par le courage des premiers défricheurs qui ont su transformer la rudesse du climat en une existence paisible. L'air y possède une pureté tranchante, chargée de cette odeur résineuse qui monte des forêts environnantes sitôt que le crépuscule s'installe. Chaque maison, chaque sentier, rappelle la persévérance d'une population qui a su faire de cet espace sauvage un foyer accueillant, où le silence n'est jamais vide, mais empli du souffle discret d'une nature souveraine et immuable.
